lol 32psi in a kart?!?! That´s way way too much, your tyres must be hard as a rock.

10-13psi in hot(!) pressures is the right amount.

With those high pressures I wouldn´t be supprised that the rear is lifting, it´s way way too stiff.

I don't know what's more annoying... taking time to create this thread w/ some realistic replies, or the fact that he spent his time making this sh*t up.


Well he can --- himself then :)


Since I was at work asking for advice, I couldn't really say that... but I did threaten to post his name and series here and he wasn't happy. How he forgot this was all in a dream...
