Technical Acceleration

[thomasgarvey]

Past few sessions I've been at, my acceleration out the corners are awful, so bad I'm losing nearly a second a lap. I've got 85/12 gearing and a jet of 126 but even then the acceleration is non existent.

Can anyone help with this?

Could be any number of things. Driving style, kart setup, engine, gearing.

As a starting point, might be helpful to let us know:-

1. Level of experience
2. Chassis
3. Engine age since rebuild
4. Circuits you race/practise at

and anything else that might be relevant
