Stupid question. Do you surface tires before a new application of prep each race week or just with new or wintered tires? My concern is if using a flap disc on Vegas, will it take so much rubber off each time that a set will only last 8-9 race days. Or is that the life expectancy of a tire?
Hey quick question. I wonder if this system would work on asphalt karts. Seems like people just toss there tires after a weekend. I was thinking even if you could clean them up for just even practice tire sets. I'm asking cause looks like there is a big difference from wear.
I’ve seen it used, but in my opinion yes that’s too aggressive. Not nearly the amount of material as a car tire to spare. 80 is as aggressive as I like to go.
New or used set? Tires in general have been a little bit of a chore to get this past couple years. I would be contacting JC Specialty in Pennsylvania if I need Burris Tires.

thanks ben for the info
Very welcome.
Nice job. I use a buffer with 180 and 220. I’ve never tried 80 before. Keep up the good work and good luck this season.
Thank you.
We do ours on the kart. We haven't got a surfacer yet so it works for now.
Awesome, ain’t nothing wrong with that. I did for years and years.
@@kart6t3_ben Could you talk about stagger and camber?
@@JakeSeiner stagger video done and coming soon. Camber is tricky but I can take a stab at it.

I don’t see why not. Of coarse I’ve never dealt with asphalt tires but I’ve seen them. Be worth a try to me.
What kind of motor are you using where do you find them normally what kind of stuff do those motors come in
This one came off a old drill bit sharpener. Tractor Supply has them for certain. Idk how cost effective this is to purchase though.
I do all our big block modified tires and I use 24 grit on them is that too aggressive for karts ?

Do you know where I can get a set of Burris.

@@kart6t3_ben thanks again. It seems like everyone is sold out.
@@migratorygame7400 also Laukatis Racing, forgot to mention them.
Hey Ben do you ever cut your tires???
I’ve only had one set. Still trying to master how to do it on the surfacer.
Hey Ben
