Caster settings

[krupaG]

Can anyone tell me the stock caster setting for a AR28 kart? This would be with the neutral pill in place. Should the kart have a stock camber setting of 0?

I don't know what the stock caster settings are as we refer to caster as "zero" or .5, 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 degrees caster in or out. Out of the box the camber should be from +2mm to -1mm (at least from what I have seen).
hope this helps,

What do you think the base settings should be? Should I set the camber at 0 and let caster be stock? Tlhe kart is scaled at 43% up front and 50% cross at 309 lbs. It is wearing the front inside edge quickly and the kart feels loose to my son. Any advice on base settings would be great. Thanks for your time.

Chris is on his way to Vegas. His point is this... the karts come standard zero..when you change the pills then the castor changes.

As a race school instructor, the driving knowledge is far more important than the castor settings. MRP can change the driver pedal response which would answer your real needs. Call if needed. thanks
