dirt road track kart setup

[Jim46]

get new short hubs with American bolt pattern , use 6" wheels . I rum an old SKM with an open 100cc , these chassies like a lot of HP .
move your wheels to .025 from the frame , loosen every pivot point on the kart rear bumper bolts so loose I have to zip tie them from viberating out . Nerf bars should be loose [ move 1/2 " ] . my seat is even loose . work with the spelling I work at night

Just leave the bearing out .
Cant set frt width with a rear tire .
Myself would try and get it even with the nerf pod , outside .

oh i cant spell at all no worries but leave every bolt loose? wont that be a rattle trap? seems like it would just fall apart?

would you not run a tire that wide on the front for dirt what size tire should I run?

Use nyloc nuts .
Purpose is more frame flex .
Its a odf situation , i would try a 6/6 or 6/5 depending on the wheel. Maybe a 5.5 wide .
Depends on tire brand . If it came with several tires just try em out .

Use only grade 8 Nylock nuts and bolts ' just think about what bolts are holding
