Conways and Turns One and Two

Up the straight, into Conways and through to turn 2

Conways: Starting from the start/finish line assuming that you are already at speed on a racing lap, aim to turn into Conways from the far left of the track, by marshal post 1.

Sisley Straight Coming along the straight towards Conways

Conways has high grip on the entry and it is possible to take this corner flat out; however, a slight dab on the brake whilst travelling in a straight line is recommended in order to prevent the kart running too deep between the two turns. Check that no one is on your inside, turn in and aim to get as close to the apex kerbing as you can. Conways is a perfect overtaking opportunity but this should always be done by taking the inside line and out-braking your competitor into the corner, ensuring that you are alongside them as you brake, not lunging at them as they turn in! Never try to overtake on the outside as the driver in front will be moving over to take the racing line and you will be left with nowhere to go but the grass.
