13- ADJUSTMENT OF SEAT
POSITION OF THE SEAT
The position of the center of gravity has also a key influence on the behaviour of the kart.
One can monitor this center of gravity by changing the position of the seat.
You will find the best position of the seat , adapted to your size and weight, by trial-and error.
We recommend you to bear in mind the following :
SEAT MOVED FORWARD!:
Gives more grip on the front wheels!; more sliding of the rear wheels.
SEAT MOVED BACKWARDS:
Less grip on the front wheels!; more grip on the rear wheels.
SEAT LOWER!:
Less grip ( front and rear wheels )!; to try on very high grip conditions.
SEAT HIGHER:
Increases the grip!; to be tried in wet conditions.
NOTE :
If any doubt , always come back to the standard position of the seat.
