KART PREP

Some recommendations on getting your kart ready for Endurance Racing

• Check your seat mount holes
• Make sure your rear crash is zip tied to the chassis and the bolts are taped over
• Shout your yourself a new throttle cable. Use it for a couple of practice sessions and check the adjustment before race start
• Put new side pod mount bolts in
• Wrap a spring or wire around your exhaust springs
• Check your header pipe welds – have a spare header flex and springs
• Make sure you have a brake safety cable (brake pedal to Master cylinder)
• Bleed your brakes with brand-new brake fluid
• Make sure your floor tray bolts are in good condition
• Two new chains – use both a couple of times before the Enduro to get the initial stretch out of them
• Secure your fuel tank – zip tie the retaining nut as the minimum
• Make sure your numbers a clearly visible. There are no rules on the number colours – they just need to be easy to see from tower
• Double check your wheel nuts, and hub nuts (if the nyloc is worn, replace them)
• If you have beed locks spray them with soapy water to make sure they do not leak
• Put new batteries in your Mychron/Alfano, and lastly
• Zip tie the air box to the seat.
