Keeping your foot on half throttle is deadly for kz2 engines. This leads to the fuel mixture getting to lean and the engine eventually runs out of lubrication.
Can you adjust carb on the fly with shifters nowadays?
Get your kart off the track, you rich kid
Why hating on someone who has more money than you? I mean she didn’t decide in which family she wants to be born in? Or did you?
This is not your regular neighbourhood track where you go for some laps... This was an WSK official practice session, 28 drivers on the track, you don´t really mess around trying to push the go kart - you let the marshals do their job. It´s safer for everyone.
Rich is relative ...and I tell you a secret: having money helps but is not enough to reach top level karting.
Agree but money gets hard for whole wsk, rgmmc and champions of the future for me 🤣
@@zoe.florescu.potoleatrue but you golf have pushed into the grass when you walked off but yeah marshals job
I mean, not to sound like a know-everything-better guy but you could hear it was gonna seize a couple of seconds before, just grab the clutch at that point
If the video didn't have "engine seized" in the caption you would never tell that the engine was going to seize, also if we could hear when the engine would stop then no one would have a engine failure...
@@wilbur1660you could literally hear it because the sound is way too sharp i had the same issue with my kzr1 that it was running to lean and seized
You are right, you could hear it when it started to go at the exit of the first corner
Nothing strange with the sound - we are always at the limit with the carb mix. Pulling the clutch helps to avoid a nasty spin, but it´s always to late to save the engine. In top karting KZ, KZ2 and OK categories seizing the engine is happening a lot, the engine tuners are so much pushing it to the limit...Last year at the FIA European Championship in Cremona I was racing OK with Tony Kart factory team and Vortex engine I seized 3 engines ... so much at the limit we were racing!
You are over OVER raving your motor in those quick downshifts. I know you want to be a hero but hero’s don’t downshift that fast! Daddy’s money will turn into your money and with the respect you have for your equipment as of now, you’ll be spending more than 2x what you should be spending.
May I ask what you drive? Like which races and if yes in a factory team?
Nothing wrong with the downshifts - it´s just so brutal the KZ2 for the engine. Well, at this level, the best KZ factory team in the world of karting, we change the piston every day, we run multiplke engines and rebuild, we have our dedicated engine tuner and TM official with us for race service. With all this I can assure you that we respect the material and everyone's work and the sportsmanship is at the highest level. Again, nothing to do with daddy´s money, as I was saying above, having money it helps but is not enough to reach this level in karting.
@@zoe.florescu.potoleakind of disagree but part with the engines she is completely right
They aren’t there to save money - they’re there to be the fastest and at this level the way to be the fastest it to utilise engine braking to its full potential as they’ll handle 17k rpm under braking… if it were a race day it’d be different as you try to look after the engine a little more and utilise very high rpms under braking for overtakes etc
@@adamcollingburn430yea if you drive WSK in a factory team money over a engine isn’t the thing to worry about. At this level only speed matters
