Since you said you run at paradise as there any info you have on the hbm reaper tire and bearing maintenance video lol also I love the content and always ready for the next video and have to go back and watch old from time to time
Yeah we have a Paradise Speedway in Sellers, South Carolina... Very nice place.. track is tricky tho... they have the Wayne Poole memorial race there... it's a $10,092 to win ...race !
Some of our tracks in louisiana have, went to reaper tires in box stock class,new to us in the south. Some tracks, high clay content, some not so much,but could you possibly make a video on them i sure would share,and promote your channel to others on Facebook. Its been a hot topic here lol
Hey man i need your help. recently my back tire that was thread ripped and popped on my 212cc engine go kart that i would ride on a bike trail where it would be pavement and sometimes be dirt and maybe rocks that could ruin the wheel. And now i’m stuck if i should get slicks or thread again. What do you think i should get?
@@kart6t3_ben Hey another question so i just placed an order for 4 threaded tires for my go kart and i was just wondering if threaded tires should be used on pavement and does that make them wear out more faster?
@@J.C.R.F typically they are a softer compound. But they have more rubber on them then a slick would so it probably evens out. But both surfaces kinda calls for the treads so that’s a good choice
Differences in suspension, tire prep, track conditions ect. I’d take a guess that 95% + of karts today run slicks. If treads were faster wouldn’t that not exist?
Good information about tires 😊
Thank you
Man you should let me get a pair of rear tires in background 😢😂 love the content still coming back to watch🔥🔥
Nice!!!

Unfortunately I have not run them yet. I would start by treating them like a Maxxis. But really would depend on how aggressive I could be with them.
@@kart6t3_ben thanks bud ,I told my cousin to subscribe, your videos help me alot
@@willjohnson105wj thank you very much! I hope to help as many as I can.

If your riding off anything other then a prepped “race” track I’d suggest the treaded tire. It will provide better grip and hopefully durability.
@@kart6t3_ben alr thanks man i appreciate it
@@J.C.R.F your very welcome

Can you please leave a link of wear you get your tires.

Still would like to see a video about the ends and outs of scaling a cart
Is there something specific I missed in the scaling video? I can make another but I’d like to hit different points if possible.
Que posibilidad hay que sus vídeo los realice subtitulados en español, por favor amigo..
I can look into it. Not positive how to do that, but I’ll try.
@@kart6t3_ben saludos de Ecuador, aquí estás hermano...
what about rain?
Rain on a clay track there is 0 traction. I wouldn’t wanna be out there on either.
Hey would you be interested in selling some of those tires behind you? Please let me know!
Thanks Ben for the recognition I do like running the high side lol
Lol well why do late models and sprints not run slicks.just a thought
Differences in suspension, tire prep, track conditions ect. I’d take a guess that 95% + of karts today run slicks. If treads were faster wouldn’t that not exist?
Yeah I would say you hit the nail on the head by talking about the suspension. Racing go karts do not have shocks and springs like a race car does
I have slicks now, but what would you recommend on a yard kart? It's a 95 trackmagic. I mainly ride on back roads.
Treads would be my choice for a yard kart. Burris and Hoosier are two brands you can look out for (maybe something used)
Good info👍
Thank you.
Where do you race?? Up north or down south?
Up north. NY/PA mostly.
👍
Treated tires are illegal at all my local tracks
Wow. Hard to police that, but that’s cool.
