Air pressure question

[fasttommy]

If adding more pressure all the way around dies it add bite or take bite away. What does adding air to lf do loosen or tighten kart

I wouldn't describe it as adding bite or taking away bite, i also wouldn't describe adding air as loosening loosen to me is rear only, adding air reduces grip and frees the kart up if you add to all 4, then opening up the split more frees it up even more, just adding to the RR would loosen. And closing up the split would tighten.

Just wondering; wouldn't all of this depend on the track bite? Wouldn't a wet and sloppy track be a lot different than a dry kart track? Wouldn't tire pressures depend a whole lot on the this?

The results per pound added would be different, however in general adding to all 4 is still freeing the kart up.

Wet/Sloppy Track = Low Pressure
Hard Track = High Pressure

Yes the pressures you would use would be a lot different, but the overall concept would be the same.

All the same principles applies, no matter track type.
