they flex the same, the only thing that made the nemesis a high cross kart was width between the front kingpinsCan someone explain what makes the older chassis like a nemesis flex more than the newer karts?what part of the design has changed?
Thanks
Now the question .they flex the same, the only thing that made the nemesis a high cross kart was width between the front kingpins
Several new karts are soft at the waist
Ideal would be to have the kart as raced, on scales, and pull on the center of gravity to replicate actual flex at various points around the track.I was thinking ? how would you replicate that at home . scales under each wheel and pull down with a measured force .
or lift each corner with a measured force . Probably need scales top and bottom of each wheel .
unfortunatly cut , weld and test is my only option !

yes so less stagger is needed to do the job if you have a wide track with more stagger you are scrubbing too much speed down the straitA more narrow rear track would cause kart to turn more not less?
A tighter rear track causes the rear to turn more not less?In my understanding of stagger, the only reason a narrower rear track needs less stagger is because the tires are rolling along paths closer to the same length. The farther apart the wheels are, the bigger the difference in the path they are following.
I have software to calculate stagger, outside width is one component of the calculation.
Does anybody know; do all manufacturers make their rear frame width the same?
Can you explain, I have no idea what that means.A tighter rear track causes the rear to turn more not less?
