    Hi. thank you so much for this video.I would like to try another setup of front axcle (i have a Tony kart 401 Racer). For you, in what order should I start testing? 2 clicks of camber, then full caster , then lower the front end (with 2 small spacer)

    • @PowerRepublic
      @PowerRepublic  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah that a great start. make sure you record your 'feedback' from the test sessions. Also too, what exactly the problems/solutions/outcomes you are trying to achieve. Hope that helps Diego. thanks heaps for writing and tuning in! 😊

    Hey, nice video as always 😊 What about tilting the kart like that at 4:00 .. to get it down from the trolley .. is it safe for the brakes (in terms of bleeding) or carburetor?

    • @PowerRepublic

      Hey Z, yeah it’s fine. The carb will level out and it won’t effect your brakes

    Ok, I recently discovered I like driving cars, around corners, as fast as I can. As a noob, what's better? A track/roadworthy rally/roadster, Speedway racing or karts? Do you do all three? Could be a great episode. It all kicked off with a day in a V8 at Queensland raceway. What an unreal experience! We backed it up with a few laps at the Pimpama kart track which was also cool and a surprisingly not the same but comparable experience. But I' sure nothing on a shifter-kart? Give us the low down please. I also have some mates that race speedway so I'd like to know you're opinion on that?

    • @PowerRepublic
      @PowerRepublic  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      karts are best for the amount of laps you get per day. start there cause its a mad buzz, at a fraction of the car racing cost. plus you get loads more laps which is perfect if you are a new guy

  • @gerardvolders2604
    @gerardvolders2604 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think as a starter you also want to have a tire inflator. The one on for my bike also works for the kart. Always want to go to the track if i see your video's.
    Is there any online (good) video you know about how to change your rotax max piston? They say it is realy simple but i don't want to mess things up.

    • @PowerRepublic
      @PowerRepublic  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      you can watch our videos, we have a video about to drop on the Rotax engine. Drop me a message through our website and we can let you know when it is ready

    • @spoileddoggproductions2559
      @spoileddoggproductions2559 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I second the inflator. It's wonderful to have a small portable inflator right on the stand tray ready to go. I impulse purchases a Ryobi for $25. The battery lasts all day and it's right there next to a good air gauge.
