We have developed a tire hop on the rear of the C28 in tight turns.

Can you explain what may be happening and how to cure the problem?

1040F axle
douglas mag wheels
short hubs
tire pressure 11 to 12 lbs
hubs in approx 1/2 inch
1 1/2 spacers in front
not much rubber on track

try increasing your air pressure. we get this when we have too much grip. my son likes a loose kart so we have the rear wide and higher pressures if we can get away with it. we're new to karting so i could be totally off, though. if a guy named rick from raceway motorsports answers, then do what he recommends. he's always been right in setting up for my son.

Put in a little losser setup tire hope as my dad explained means it is a touch to tight. A shorter version of what im saying just run the rear end a little losser.
