Hi all, I currently race a 2011 CRG Tork chassis in the LO206 class at my local track. The past couple of races I have noticed my kart has really fallen off in terms of front grip after about 5 laps. The kart feels great for the first 5 laps and has good turn in, however it develops a bad understeer. Any thoughts as to how to correct this?
Current setup:
Front wheels: all but 1 spacer out
Rear width 52″
Minimum caster/max camber setting
toe neutral
tire pressures 12 all around on hot 90 deg. day
tires: bridgestone YLC
1 seat strut on left side of seat
Front bar in and flat
Current thoughts:
Move weight from rear of seat to front under legs
move front wheels out final spacer
Increase rear width
I know the other answer should be increase caster, however I found that I got better exit speed when I took it out.
So, any thoughts?
