Kart 100 cc technical regulation; 457pp/22hp - this means no Oil Change is allowed, right?

 

Oil changes are not available for karts, the option is greyed out.

 

Rebuilding engine make oil change and after that you get more power - 463pp and 23hp (if I remember right).

 

Can't wait to get started

 

Couple of things, are we running kart space for these races? Also, rebuilding the engine is the only way to get your kart up to 463, pre mix baby!!

 

Sorry, i have a problem with the second heat. My schedule has changed so i'm not dure i'll be available for saturday heat 7 (18.00 UTC)...

 

Pre-season trials are run at Silvertone Stowe (EU) and GT Arena layout A (NA).

 

Entry Lists

- These have now be updated for both days.
- Please note that as people are still registering, you may get moved from 1 heat to the next.

Send me a message on your Driver Thread so we can see if you can reschedule.

Be aware that if you do this you may not be able to meet the lobby requirements, so I recommend not doing this.

 

Do we race on both circuits for the trial? I don't see any sort of race order specified in any of the documents.

 

Check the Calendar and Schedule link in the noticeboard. UK = Stowe, US = GT Arena

 

Okay, so since I'm in a UK time slot I should only practice on Stowe then?

 

Take a look again. You're also NA heat.

 

So is the time that the heats say UTC or UK?

Are setups allowed?

 

Heat times are UTC.

Yes you can tune.

 

Can we do engine rebuild ? Can't wait...

 

Also not sure where or how to sign up for rhis week's time trials.

 

Nope - 457pp.

By posting "General Series Discussion" thread as you have done. You should get registration info from AJ.

 

What are you guys driving at stowe?

With 457 pp and 23 hp

 

457/22 - as stock. Round 57s. Not sure about room/event setting to use.

 

Room settings

The circuit grip thingy realistic
No aids
No boost
Thats all

I am driving 56.273 457pp

 

Okay... I'm a little confused as to which track we're runnin'. I'm in the North American time slot. Which track are we using ? Also if possible, I would like to request a late heat time. I usually get home from work around 6-6:30 central standard time. Thanks guys. Sounds like it will be a blast to run.

 

When @AJ sent you registration info there's google form/document to you fill with your infos and tell what time slots works for you. Tracks you find post #8.

 

I've just noticed that i did the engine rebuild on my kart so it's 23 hp but the PP are still 457... What does this mean?

 

You need to drive it until the horsepower goes down, or buy a new kart.

 

Roughly do you know how many kilometres?I'm at circa 70/80 km right now, andò i've done the rebuild right after i bought the kart

 

About 150 miles. So that would be approxately 241 kilometers.

EDIT: Had a good practice session with @Makozi. I ran a 56.061 at Stowe and a 27.018 at Gt Arena.

 

is it still open?

 

Just closed and was about to edit my above post. Sorry.
