The reason its so high is because I had a TC at first and was having clearnace issues with the tire so we built a mount for it but never tested it without the mount and the clutch setup. ---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 AM ---------- Do you guys think a...

So yalls 1wd karts also swerve a lot as well? What do you guys have done to your karts? And any one that runs slicks, how do they feel compared to the previous tire you used? Also is dumb to have the sawtooth tires on the front smaller tires and slick bigger tires in the back?

Hey guys. So heres a question for yall. Heres my current set up. Tires: 4.10x 3.50 x 4 on the front. 4.10x3.50x5 on the back. 1wd drive set up with 60t sprocket and brake drum. Predator 6.5 with header pipe currently and air filter kit with jet and new spark plug coming soon. I also wanted to...

Ok ill probably break it in first. You guys think the TC I bought can hold up to the ungoverned engine?

What do you guys think about this. I just went and bought the predator. Now, should I take the governor off while theres no oil in there at the moment or leave it be? https://www.amazon.com/TORQUE-CONVERTER-CLUTCH-COMET-218353A/dp/B010TQ3VU0 Theres the TC i ordered

Haha very funny Hellion! Yeah we are going to see how the TC works

Just bought a cheap TC off amazon $60. Going to get a pred tomorrow so I will keep you guys updated. Another other tips on how i can get this thing off the line faster?

So should I still be using a TC if its a one wheel peel? ---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ---------- I don’t plan on off-roading. Just the pavement

Im really looking for a cart that can get off the line quickly. Always thought the TC helped with that?

Thanks for the replies guys. So much help. I decided to return that TC and pick up a pred. Also what are yalls thoughts on the $70 TC on ebay or amazon? Don’t really want a comet at the moment. How are the preds too? Pretty good power when you have the ratios right?

Hey guys, I am new to kart building but am very hands on and mechanical. Anyways I have ran into a slight problem. So heres the story. I pulled a 10 hp B&S engine of a generator. 7/8” diameter shaft. I bought a 40 series TC on ebay (the $230 one) and a 7/8” to 1” shaft adapter. I am going to the...
