EASYKART: THE ADJUSTMENTS

GENERAL SUGGESTIONS FOR DRIVING

The Easykart categories use “hard”-compound tyres thus favouring neat and precise driving. Generally speaking, stressing the vehicle with borderline braking and driving along bends too fast losing grip and making the kart skid, is generally behaviour that does not pay off in terms of time. When braking, we recommend you not delay the release to much: by abruptly reducing speed the number of revolutions drops exceedingly low, which in turn penalizes the entire following straight. Furthermore, violent braking does not make it possible to follow the ideal line and prejudices the effectiveness of the tyres much faster. Instead, we recommend you brake within limits and speed up as early as possible always keeping the kart along the ideal running line and making use of the entire the track: on entering the bend, you have to brake along the outer line, then take a tight line on the apex and power up as soon as you are exiting while using the full width of the track.
