    I like your content , thanks . I was neighbors with a kart family and Dad kept impeccable notes for every race night and every change made ...everything . Bill (dad) paid extreme attention to tire pressure all night long . Tire pressure and tire temperature before and AFTER track time/laps . When this family showed up and you wanted to beat them , you may as well put your kart back in the trailer or just consider the laps that night as practice . Bill showed us many many times that once your kart is dialed in, minute changes in tire pressure resulted in even faster laps . This goes back to the very old saying , everything your car/kart does , it does through the tires .

      That’s a great saying. And thanks for watching.

    Hey Ben. Is there a benefit to running a bigger or smaller driver gear if you are keeping the gear ratio close to the same?

    • @kart6t3_ben
      @kart6t3_ben  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Yes! In short a bigger driver carries more speed at the end of the straight away. A smaller driver will “launch” better off turns and restarts.

    Hey Ben. On longer tracks do you think to much stagger will scrub off straight away speed?

      Yes

    • @kart6t3_ben

      Yes. The kart constantly pulling left is scrubbing speed off.

    Hey Ben if I go down one tooth on my driver, how many teeth do you feel I should go down on rear gear? I would like to stay around the same rpm thanks

    • @kart6t3_ben
      @kart6t3_ben  Před rokem +1

      One driver tooth is worth 3 rear. So say a 15/57 = 16/54 like that.

      I thought I remembered that from one of your videos but I could not find it. Thanks you keep up with the good stuff. I really enjoy your videos

    Cheating is such an ugly word. I prefer 'competitive advantages'. Haha

    Your thumbnail is really deceptive. I came here to learn about front and rear sprockets and you basically didn’t even talk about anything of the sort.

    • @kart6t3_ben
      @kart6t3_ben  Před rokem

      Changing the tire circumstances does effect the gearing. The concept, A larger tire in effect removes teeth and smaller adds to the rear gear. The gear reference is for those who can’t change it. Sorry.

    We didn't have any restrictions when I started racing in the Junior class. Pussification of America continues. Do you give them participation trophies as well?

    • @kart6t3_ben

      Well hell man let’s put 5 year olds out there in opens, give them kids some real adversity. Ain’t nothing pussificating about slowing things down and teaching proper racing etiquette. Quite the opposite, you have multiple generations of drivers that would rather drive through someone rather then around.

    Sprocket size for back sprocket on Gx390 for adults

    • @kart6t3_ben
      @kart6t3_ben  Před 3 měsíci

      That would be track and rpm dependent so very hard to guess what you need. My only point of reference would be a 10/58 at a small 10th mile 8600 on a clone.
