Re: battle shifter

There is a class in Norman, OK that is a "run what ya brung" so if you have one and want to play with it, that is probably the closest.

Re: What gears & jetting to use?

168 if its 100+ like it has been, with the RLV V4, #6 slide, D needle. To start in the morning when its like 85, start at 172-175. Also worth noting that I run conservative nowadays. ;0)

Re: Few shifter kart questions

Yeah, rulebook helps a lot. However, there are several major points... 99-02 CR125 STOCK motor with a 38mm Keihin PWM or PWK carb. Look at Sudco for this.

Cornering learnin curve

Hey guys, I had my first real full speed test in my kart the other day, and I noticed something odd.... In the hairpin (turn 7) Im having a lot of "hopping" thru the turn until I wind out the steering into the next strait. All the other turns dont do that, just the one. Am I entering the t...
