WHY Did I Get BLACK FLAGGED in Karting?

- I got black flagged in rental karting, and you'll never guess why... For whatever reason, this kart was pretty understeery, so when the yellow flag came out, I made sure to keep as much front temperature in as possible by weaving. Shortly after, I was black flagged because weaving under yellows is not allowed because they've apparently had issues with people spinning... Now I can understand that, but I bet more accidents happen because of cold slippery tires than weaving, so do you think this rule is over the top?

What track was that one?
Just asking r u in the uk bc I think I've been there
😊😊
I’ve been there and I loved it it’s so fun lol
The worker sounds like he doesn’t exactly agree he’s just doing his job
Well this is rental karting not professional karting. I understand why in this circumstance it’s not allowed.
Or he’s just not miserable and doesn’t need to be rude about it.
😂
Yup
@@BETA00009 why do you wanna argue so bad
Most of the time, whenever a worker says “apparently” it means they don’t agree with what they have to tell you.
This is very true, I have done this at my job and I didn't even realize it but that's exactly how I phrase it.
I say apparently in a way to skirt blame. This keeps ppl from getting confrontational with me bc Im the enforcer of rules
As a customer service worker this is 100% true.
Nah, we say apparently weather we agree with it or not so you're less likely to argue with us about it
@@nip3004 As a customer service worker, you are both partially correct in my case

I've always appreciated kind staff like that, it can be very unnerving for kids or shy people and when they immediately settle a person's nerves before explaining it's so much easier to move past.
I've had head injuries and can become overwhelmed and shut down or panic as a side affect, I've gotten better over years but people like that have helped so much

Great customer service, doing his job while also keeping it real.
I really like the worker. You could tell he didn’t agree w the decision but understood and upheld the rule because it’s his job. Seems like a nice kid. I bet he can tear that track up!!!
0 replies?
Not right. If he works there he has to be one with the rules, even if he disagrees. His own opinion is secondary, he's there as an employee, not his own person.
@@AutoRautobut his own opinion was secondary, he upheld the rules while remaining respectful and chill. He seems like a genuinely good person who knows about karting and if I were there Id feel comfortable talking to him whereas if sometimes just said “you cant do that” Id probably not want to approach him on my own.

This man is a good one, calmly explained what the issue was and why, then left you to finish your sessuon in peace.
I guess they have to make this a rule for "everyone or no one" to avoid the annoying customer going "BuT tHeY cAn AnD i CaN't?"
I love the kind of person that guy was. He was pretty much just like “hey you did this, you weren’t supposed to, all good” and I loved that
It wasn't even necessarily that he wasn't supposed to but because he was the others were copying and spinning out, easier to flag one guy (who clearly has enough experience to understand) for 5 seconds to explain than stop everyone's fun to tell them all to stop copying the guy smurfing irl.

Everyone was the good guy here.

There is probably more civilized human interaction than we realize because I feel like the bad interactions are a lot of times the ones posted on the internet so that’s what we see. I think there are more good interactions than we realize. Yes it is nice to see people handle situations without arguing or being mean, but rather be friendly toward each other.

I love how this is your top video and it’s just talking about somthing you didn’t really want to talk about😂
As an ex- Rental karting track worker you see some crazy drivers, the most common cheater was 'weavers', Drivers who were slower than others weave back and fourth across the track to stop people overtaking them on tight corners. I get where they are coming from however you were clearly keeping the tyres warm in a yellow.
I had that at 3 sisters in Wigan! Out of the last corner onto the straight and took a lot more speed to catch up to the next kart which the driver then promptly looked back and very deliberately shunted right over in front of me so as to not lose their place
That's not racing, that's being a little b1tch! 😂
@@skylined5534 uhm... No. That is actually racing. You are never supposed to just make space for the one behind you 😂 that is not how racing works in any racingsport. Only exception is if your vehicle is tremendously slower and you are just blocking the whole field.
@@nicoschroeder5379 That's not the whole story. Go and inform yourself about rules and regulations in motorsports.
This isn't the reason though. Op is weaving too much and that's just a greater chance of accidents and spinning out so that's why he got the black.
You’re saying weavers are people trying to block people behind them (actually good racing) but what the worker is saying is people just weave around to have extra fun. Crazy you seem like you’re a racer but you don’t encourage proper racing!!

You're good = we understand you know how to handle the equipment. But since this is an open time and our equipment, we gotta prevent others from attempting the same
@@Loralanthalasif anything warming your tires up will help keep the track less damaged, cause you aren't sliding around ever corner smacking the fucking barrier
That worker deserves a raise so friendly :)
Friendly for clearly not liking the rules?
I agree he deserves it. Didn't expect him to be so friendly
the internet has changed your view so much that being normal is considered very friendly.
Lmao what.
We giving raises to people for being friendly? You guys must have really shit standards lol
Probab only gets a .25 cent raise 🥲
When You Casually Recognise The Track 😮
So I watched 25 seconds of speculation for an answer he already had 😊
Great employee for being so real.
I love that it's just a safety thing. You're not in trouble or anything for being unsafe, they just need to let you know and you're back on the course.
If anything its actually safer for him to heat up the tires given that the kart under steering so i dont get why the location doesn't allow it under a green flag because a couple of idiots dont know how to swerve to heat tires properly. You can even tell that the worker doesnt agree with the company policy lol
@@gatordragon6140 that logic only works if everyone is good at carting and can expect people to just randomly swerve. If everyone has understeer then you just correct for it as if it wasn’t there
I got black flagged at liverpool for that it take the piss
@@gatordragon6140 The problem is that if you say it's okay to swerve to warm tires, there's going to be someone else swerving to block other cars plus you'll get someone who is too aggressive with it and gets sideways. If they are going to have the rule, they kind of have to enforce it across the board. Also, I don't think the tire warming does that much in indoor karts. You'll get far more heat just letting the kart slide around the first few laps.
He's just looking out for the other drivers. I'm happy to see both of you be cool about it
Wouldn't be much point in getting pissy about it. It would net get him back on the track any faster. It would have been hard to not argue back that warm tires won't spin out as easily and that those scissor weaves were making the vehicle easier to handle and thus safer. Also 10 to 1 says those spin outs where mostly the result of something being spilled on the track. That track looks and sounds slick as all hell to start with. Shiny surfaces are never a sign of good grip. When you are that slick even the residue of a soda spilled a couple of days ago can change your grip by quite a lot. God forbid you get a bit of grease or oil on that track.

@@Snipergoat1what da hell are you saying your like dream tweeting smthn on twitter
Yeah farnborough is a bit of an awkward one. Just on than hairpin is a drop, then up, then drop again, and I’ve spun out many times taking it too fast and spinning or drifting too much 😅
I knew it was Farnborough
How you approach people is everything, 10/10 to this guy super professional
As someone with severe social anxiety I appreciate someone with a job like this taking the time to make sure you know it’s not personal.
i was at a waterpark that has a go cart track and they put out a flag to call the carts in because our session was over but they did it immediately after i had passed them so i didnt see, then after i had finished my lap i saw no flag so they mustve not held it out for long enough, the lady at the stand gave me a deathstare and when i finally got back in one of the staff yelled at me "LISTEN". so yeah, terrified of going back there now for their own fault
Shut up with that drama
What are you 5 years old you’re scared to talk to people?
@@lukamagicgodikr 😂 I imagine him getting out to get groceries then suddenly crying or some shit
Bruh everybody has social anxiety, just get out of your comfort zone and u'll get used to social intetactions💀
For those who don’t know, a black flag waved means all return to the pits of the track. If the black flag is directly pointed at you, you return to the pits. It usually means a really bad crash took place or if pointed at you you were racing too rough.
Thank you soo much.. im confused as hell what happen here..
He was waving it, so everyone should have pulled in, yet he was the only one that did.
Ty
Actually, a black flag means a person is disqualified from the session and has to pull into the pits. A red flag on the other hand means everyone has to peel into the pits as the session is stopped for a big crash where further racing can’t be resumed because og debris, people on track etc.

The perfect example of
"Oh, I didn't know we were chill like that."

An f3 driver being treated like a rookie in rental karting XD
Not really but ok
Isn't it the opposite?? He made him stop weaving so rookies don't try that and spin ...
An f3 champion
He’s a bit shit at karting though, and blamed everyone else for his mistakes
You mean being treated just like anyone else there? Glad he didn't have special treatment
that was the chillest dude knowing he's just doing his job
i mean im not sure but they get to watch free games and get payed for it so i would be chill too
He should be more commuted to the job, it doesn't matter if the rules are stupid, as an employee he needs to agree with them and enforce them. Personal opinion doesn't matter on the job.
@@AutoRautodude what is wrong with you? You've commented on every post talking about how workers shouldn't have opinions. You've obviously never worked in the real world. Get a life.
The worker was really good. Told you what the problem was, said not to worry about it and just dont do it again. Very cool of him
People on both ends should always interact this way. Nicely done!
Basically somebody complained trying to get rid of you but the workers are chill and don’t care 🤣💀
I bet its some manager / owner whatever, who is not keen about any sort of aditional tire wearing
He literally explained why in the video. It's because inexperienced drivers spin out

I used to work at TeamSport Newcastle and our rules on weaving were if we can see you can control it and are not weaving on greens or around people then we were okay with it
Btw if anyone is wondering the track is Farnborough team sport
This track is way more stricken than the other ones I have been to
Theres a video of a dude getting angry and (tried to) flip his kart, this looks a lot like the same place
@@CrimsonDoveKartingdiff place fam, same organisation... cult.. idk whatever u call Teamsport
Stricken?
This is Teamsport. They’re all the same and they’re all shit. Very narrow tracks so u cant overtake, very strict rules, dirty drivers, lots of novices who dont know what theyre doing as well. Just avoid teamsport and indoor in general, better to experience outdoor tracks they are a lot better
Where is it?
Love the worker he was super calm and nice about it and sounded like nice dude to be around
:D
This dude was too chill.
Honestly well done on them. An open session with rentals and they're probably aware of who you are and what you were doing BUT other ppl catch on to what you're doing and that that's a good thing are probably going to try and imitate it...with no where near the same number of hours put in to learn and get the experience you have. They have the rules there for a reason and nice to see them enforce them equally to keep it a safe and still enjoyable experience for all 🤗
that worker that pulled him aside was chill as heck and deserves a raise. just a good guy and model employee. :)
the worker told him the issue then the driver excepted that issue and in the end worker was just doing his job even tho he didn’t know that you couldn’t do that on yellows he’s still a good worker that deserves a round of applause 👏🏽
Facts 💯💯💯 Need more people like both of them
Deadass thought he said "I got black flashed in rental karting" and i was waiting for him to get socked out his kart.

True “didn’t know you were chill like that” moment
So we can't do that during Karting I mean we like nascar
I had this profile pic in 2013
Most workers just wanna do their job, they hate having to confront people even when they know they're wrong. Glad you guys handled it politely and respectfully, us non-managers just wanna go home and relax so we appreciate it when you're nice to us.❤❤
Yeah and someone shouldnt be fired for being an insider to a stranger either. I really wish people were more respectful about that stuff. I had an ex girlfriend that used to act like she could do anything unimpeded and it wore thin on me real quick to where I paid extra to what she was trying to bypass and ignored her the entire time at this touristy place making her insanely embarrassed as I had felt every time she did it.
That worker passed the vibe check.
The worker deserves a promotion, he sounds really polite
The most gigachad thing to do is to casually and calmly give the first warning, and send them back to it, incredible worker,
and incredible way you handled it as well, dude.
Youre riding on smooth wood and they complain about people spinning out? 💀
Remember these are heavily restricted karts with gluey racing tires, they are worried incase you spun on the straight which may cause newer drivers to collide with you and corners your ment to slow for (Unless it's wide enough)
I love how the others started weaving even though they had no idea why
I hate tracks like this. A lot of them will throttle your cart back if you're winning by too much. Last time this happened, two drivers hit me from the back going fast. After the shock passed I pitted early and got my money back. They tried to say it was "to make it fair for everyone else." I had to explain that making me slower than everyone else was the exact opposite of that.
Exactly the way to be a good employee when there are some bad rules in place. Good dude and good content.
They definitely briefed you on this before the race started
Nah they don't. I go to preston teamsport a lot (its not this one, but it has electric karts and use the same briefing video) and yeah they never mention this.
The one I go to you can weave under yellows and when stationary
they don’t I go to this track all the time and it’s not in the video or the messages they tell you after
