Ross Tait commented on Kane Taylor's group Rotax 125cc"Simply from what you are saying it is driver style and how the throttle is applied/used as it effects the way the carb fuels,tuning etc.
Needles,jetting etc never suits every driver as we never drive(style),accelerate,brake the same. Hope that…"
Ross Tait replied to Akura's discussion Kart Max Jetting: iPhone App (Android too in a few days!). in the group Rotax 125cc"JeTtech pro will allow any carbs,needles,jetting,setup etc and tunable carbs as well as fixed jet and is better and you also cailbrate to your weather station as well so is accurate to your setups and carbs as they are all differant.

GREAT DAY TO BE A KARTER
May 6th sees the Super Kart Drivers Club holding their second round of a
Six round series held at the almost iconic circuit of Hampton Downs.
Join the increasingly popular road race fraternity and experience close,

circuit located mid way between Auckland and Hamilton.
With raffles…
Correct race lines

The Super-Kart Drivers Club was invited to the inaugural round of the V8 Super Tourers motor race series on 25th and 26th February at Hampton Downs complex.
Saturday dawned hot and fine with 6 very well presented Super-Karts on display for the huge crowd eager to be part of history in the making.
The first on track demonstration for karts didn’t go quite according to plan with only 2 karts finishing this 8 lap display – broken gear levers, engine seizures, brakes not…

- Hi Ross
Sorry I missed Superkarts at Hampton, we did a wet race day at AKL in Open. How did it go does anyone have any pictures etc?
Watching a few hairy pirouettes and off tracks at Auckland kept me thinking how hairy it must have been at 200k plus !!
