It is my video, it needs a bit of explanation: the difference was made in the corners only, the gearboxes are not pulling out on the straight - this can be seen on the video. 1. I was running not very good tyres as I generally do during practices (this set was particularly bad as I gained a second when I replaced them by another used set). 2. There are Aixro drivers far faster than me, this can be seen in my other videos from the races (none of them were at Kimbolton).
On several occasions, I have been faster than ICC with my rotax max: Tyres and driver make far more difference than an engine on laptimes.
I think we (Aixros drivers) are coming back soon at Kimbolton, I will try to put decent tyres this time to make justice to the Aixro :-)
I have done some tests with a friend with a KZ2: our conclusions is that both are very similar in performance. 2 differences: 1. Out of an hairpin the KZ2 has slightly the edge on the 2nd gear. 2. On twisty part the Aixro is faster while the gearbox make all the gear changes. I am the first surprised that the top speed is the same and I have even heard from one of my fellow driver that he was overtaking some 250cc a the end of the straight at Rissy...
