I am considering getting a Tony Kart in a couple months, going to be running Rotax Max Masters @ 405lbs. Would you recommend going with the Krypton of the Racer EVRR? I have heard things like the EVRR is faster, but will wear out/bend real quick at this weight. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan |

| Who are you buying your Tony Kart from?? Maybe ask them which chassis would be best suited for you.. |

| Last year in Max Masters P1 and P2 were on EVRR with P3 and P4 on Kryptons at the track I am going to be running. I suppose that means the EVRR is better, but if I am needing a new frame every 5 or 6 races, I can't afford that, so in my case it would probably slow way down after it is "worn out", right? |

| Either the Racer EVRR or Krypton is capable of winning given setup and driving ability. I think its more important to make sure you get a good clean kart and get some help hitting the sweet spot you need for the track that you will be running. |

| Hey Dan, I have had both. If you can afford to buy a new chassis every 6 races, buy the 30mm, if not like me get the 32. 400 + pounds is too much for the 30mm. You will loose nothing and will gain longevity. call me when you get a chance. Michael Sachs |

Yeah Johnny Blair who is at Worlds, races a Krypton with us. He is very competitive in our Senior class, so you can really make them go fast. I'd get the Krypton due to the longevity and strength. _________________ Joe Criscione

| Thanks for all of the replies. I ended up getting a brand new 32mm FA kart. Now time to start the testing. |

For Masters. 32mm Krypton is much better.
EVRR is a little too soft for 400lbs.
