We sent our tester Dan to test the autocross track in this awesome supercharged buggy. How did he enjoy it, what was he actually driving and what was it like?
It was a training Sunday, the sun had been beating down since morning and we headed to Sedlčany. After a couple of hours of driving, a huge track opened up in front of us with such hills and curves that didn't exactly evoke feelings of excitement in our tester. However, it suddenly turned out that there are races on the track and for the tester's test run the track will be modified a bit and not run everywhere. So the biggest hills and the sharpest corners will remain for next time...
The instructor introduced us to the autocross buggies, loaned Dan the equipment (overalls, gloves and boots) and explained what and how. It's important to shift properly, not to slam the clutch, to accelerate when exiting a corner.... and above all to have fun. Then it was on and Dan hit the track.
The Buggy Kart RSK has 130 horsepower, 4 cylinders and only 320 pounds. And the result?
Better acceleration than many sports cars, a body full of adrenaline and excitement and dust up to your ears... that's what autocross on a race track is all about. Check out the ride.
