Noseweight for dirt oval kart racing

Im predicting my kart will handle tight because im running 56.8% crossweight, 56.6% left side weight, rear weight 59.4%, and noseweight of 40.5% im racing at a 1/5 mile dirt oval karting track is that good or not, please only stock predator, clone, cage and champ kart, and flat kart racers please respond.
 
As far as the left and cross matching that depends on the year of chassis, as for the nose weight you'll need to increase it anywhere from 5 to 7 % depending on which chassis.
Which chassis and year ? Is it a champ kart
 
What kart,track, and tires are you running? Like Ken said get the nose up. In most of our karts (buggy and flat kart)we are around 46-47.5.
 
46.5 nose
58 left
62 cross
.5 LF -2.75 RF
8/12 caster
1 1/2 front stagger 1 1/4 rear.
If the kart is snug add rear stagger.
These numbers are just a starting point, You'll need to make adjustments but you shouldn't be out in left field with these.
