Interesting. How do you know the accuracy of each scale? What about repeatability? Wheel position on the scale will affect your overall outcome. If you're trying to get within 10% of your goal then I guess this setup might work. Everyone seems to forget about accuracy and repeatability.
@@robbinsracing801 I use a set of electronic scales for my Legend Car. I keep it calibrated so I get repeatable results. The most variability is the nut behind the wheel.
Good video, but. Itend to find this a bit overrated and close to impossible to get right, you need to have everything 100% right. If your allignment is off you get a false result, if your frame is just slightly bent (and it very likely could be), if you are not 100% level between the 4 corners it will be off. I tend to just focus on getting the front/rear weight in the ball park and solve the rest in the setup.
This series is so helpful for a new person to the sport! I've already recommended it to others getting into karting!
That is how we grow the SPORT!!!
I put a straight edge across the steering arms to make sure the wheels are straight ahead, good job.

Yes, close is good enough. Scales do have an adjuster, I put a 5lb weight on the scale set the scale to 5lbs and call it good.

@@MikeSmith-is1yy Love your comment
Nice and cheaper setup. I try it before in china. close like that.
Yup it has worked great for us

I would agree, another reason to not invest into a professional scaling setup. Close is good enough for me.
