Get your kart on a set of scales and report back what the weight of each corner is. Four bathroom scales will work, if you can get them level, but a good kart stand and scales is the best.
If you use bathroom scales, set the kart on the scales, write down the numbers, then turned the kart 180 degrees and see if the scales read the same. This will give you a good indication if the scales are level. They don't have to be exact, but get them as close as possible.

If the data does not support the theory, get a new theory. (Al Nunley)

Move your R/R in.

Most LTO karts already run the RR in as close to the frame as possible so I doubt that's an option

Actually it's the L/R that's all the way in.

R/R should be in as far as it can go. L/R should be out as needed to get the 39 1/4 -39 1/2 but everyone has their own ways but I think the majority have the l/r out in LTO karts.

move LR in to tighten it up

Last of the originals
way to many variables to say what the cause is,tires/prep/cross/nose weight ect
Less nose weight.....need to know your percentages before anyone can give you accurate advice, otherwise we are all throwing darts in the dark here. I can say this, I have never seen anyone on dirt, or any chassis, where the LR was all the way in and RR moved in or out to adjust rear track width. Its usually the other way around like these guys have said, RR in all the way and move the LR to get the RTW you need.

Then with valve stem to the bottom place funnel on valve stem and pour mix into funnel while relaxing tire
Put valve stem in being careful not to move tire not to splash onto side walls put 10 psi air
Carefully carry to roller and let roll 24 hours do not put anything on the outside
Left rear- straight up nothing on inside
Left front - 1/2 ounce lambert blue and 1/2 mafia original
Roll all tires together at the same time.
Before the bashing starts:
I have been out of karting for a few years. Why?
I am in late model stock cars now, but I have a trophy case full of trophies from karting
And I have been on a lot of different chassis and I can say this though experience.
And have outrun big names in karting on old chassis.
I have come to learn they are all a piece of metal and they all will take the same numbers
Now kart manufactors will not like this post as well as tire guru's that want your money
The only reason I am giving out this secret is I am no longer in this sport after a lot hanging around all the right people. Here is my email just in case someone wants to see if I know what I am talking about.
