Go Kart Chassis Tuning for Dirt Oval Racing

This is a basic guide on some of the changes you can make at the track to try and dial in your chassis. All of these changes should be used only after you have your basic set-up which includes setting toe end, stagger, camber and weight percentages. These basic set-up adjustments should be done at home during the week. Your chassis manufacturer should provide you with a set-up starting point. In time this starting point may change according to what works best for your driving style, different tracks and different track conditions.

There are many handy tools and gauges made to help racers with set-up of their racing go kart chassis. Most of these, such as Longacre Caster/Camber Gauges, Longacre Computerscales, Accutoe Pro Laser Toe Gauge, Longacre Air Gauges, Longacre Durometer and Tire Stagger tape measures are available at most kart shops, including my own: http://smokinjoeracing.com
