running a trick olimpic riddler, also wondering if anyones played with ackerman? curious if moving the lf up a hole (closer to king pin) could help kart turn in the tight corners

Max,
its hard to say what kpi you want in the kart. All chassis are different, and react different. RF frame could be softer and such. If you have To much of a kingpin angle in the RF, when you turn the wheel your rf will dig into the track. To little of KPI you wil have too much negative camber gain and this will help the kart 2 wheel. now throw in caster and camber settings. keeps you thinking and trying things but thats part of the hobby that makes it challenging!!! As for ackerman, i have an exact toe gauge you can borrow and mess around with. Just a thought but by add some acker man and into the LF the wheel will turn more! but also may jack weight onto RR right? now lets go racing indoors
