Today is the beginning of a new year, but more importantly, today marks the first day that F125 is a full national class. Just thought I'd point that out. I...
Hi All, We had a great event today in Colorado Springs, FUN course designed by John Ames. :) 47 deg. F, slight overcast. Very nice for a "winter" event. :) ...
Well off hand I'd have to say your downshifting too fast and/or braking too hard. The thing you have to remember with just rear brakes is that you can't just...
First, move your brake bias towards the fron.... eh, oops! No front brakes? Hmmm... That limits the options a bit! Seems to me the only real cure might be to...
Everything Al said, plus: Most karts have multiple mounting holes on the brake rod (pedal to M/C) These can be used to tune in more or less leverage at the...

Lindsay: There's a couple of things you can do to help the situation. Make sure you don't have excessive clearance between the pad and the rotor. Some calipers...
I watched Lindsay on one of his spins and I have to say I have never, never seen anything go around so fast. It was not your usual, back end step out, start...
Linday, First off, congrats on getting runs in your kart (both you and Zak I see)! You probably talked to Graeme, so you know that we weren't there because we...
Sounds like old or hard tires to me, though I have little to base this on except for me going *all over the place* on old, used Vega Reds. I spun wildly on...
ONCE AGAIN... I AM NOT Selling this... But someone else is... and it might be a good buy. http://www.ekartingnews.com/viewtopic.php?t=13156&highlight=...
THANKS everyone for all the words of encouregment and great advice. I've decided I need to get new brake pads. Does anyone have a source of 'soft' pads for a...
Hi all, I need to tap the idea pool. My son and daughter share a kart in FJr. Jake, 10, will be in Jr. 1 and Elyse, 13, will be in Jr 2. Since we have min....
Hi Pete, We've been thinking about this also in SoCal as we have a couple families with this issue. The biggest problem is finding a suitable mounting...
I've seen something similar to the water bottle idea used in w2w racing. A few people have used aluminum cylinders filled with lead mounted to the chassis. How...

I was looking forward to this new series. http://www.precisionracingorg.com/ But it seems that there will only be karts for kids. Randy Chase...
I remember reading that F125 is welcome to run in X class, trophies count but we won't be scored for points. All this at the discretion of Heyward, I'm sure....
... www.grangemotorcircuit.com Vegas guys? It's not too far... :) so Larry, as the event organizer, you need to tell us when we are going to do it ? how...
I assumed it was common knowledge to use washers when I made that comment. Having said that I've never had a bolt pull through a seat. I'll find out what size...
I've found a possible source for soft pads. It's speedquestkarting.com. In their brake parts section they list hard, medium and soft pads. I can't say whether...
I am moving to Cincinnati and was wondering if anyone w/in 4 hrs of the city is looking for a female co-driver through Nationals. I have a year of experience...
AGAIN... I am NOT selling this... just posting it here so some lucky autocrosser can get into a quality ride. If I didn't have something else brewing, I...
Umm, if I remember correctly, don't we have a 38mm size limit on carbs in F125? Otherwise, with a carb switch, this looks like an awesome package for someone....
The carb, yes, and by the current rules set, the ignition too. $4k for such a new chassis setup and developed motor package seems right to me! Alan Sheidler In...
