AIK WEEKLY RACE MEET *****S
not sayin your slow.. or your weight isnt whats affecting you.. but some people think the same thing because the person in front of them HAS TO SLOW for the twists allowing (you) to catch up. speeding off and pulling away at the exit usually means they took a better line. if you took a better line thru the twists you would be pushing them all the way until the karts straightened out and then power/weight took over.
thats just all based off my own exp because i have chased down and passed many lighter riders.. and heavier riders have also schooled me thru twists.

I've chased down some lighter riders too, but I'm talking mainly about the ones who are quite a bit faster than me. I mean i'm 290lbs and running pretty damn close to people half my size.
Either way its all in fun. I'm still holding down the 225+lb weight class

I agree with what you're saying, but they really just pull WAY ahead of me. I'll pass someone in a turn and come out of it maximizing my speed for the straight, but I'll be passing them and going faster than them, and they somehow match my speed, and then start going faster.

agreed because at the same time last night, i got behind jason, and on the straight aways where we both dont let off the gas, he went from a kart ahead to probably 4 before the straightaway ended......
