HOW TO: Championship Race Upgrades For Your Go Kart - POWER REPUBLIC

[@ricmech9128]

Hello from Texas! Just started to watch your channel and you do very good job explaining and presenting your content. We're new to the kart scene and all the information has been very helpful.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Ricardo, welcome the channel, stoked you are enjoying the help. Let me know if you have any problems and we might be able to make a video for you

[@bradleyroe2306]

Thanks very much for the videos ! Just got back into karts and have watched all most every video on the channel . One question What makes the otk wheels so much better than other wheels ??

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey brad, thanks for tuning in. great question. I guess someone won a race once with them, then someone else got them and won a race too, then it became the standard to win only with OTK wheels. they are good wheels, and get them if you can, but otherwise race what you have and race harder than everyone else! Boom

Hey Dez as always very informative great advice.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey, thanks Amir

[@eth4no255]

Can you make a video about the 206mm brake rotor for OTK?

[@IggySport1388]

Dez what's your take on ceramic bearings? Worth the extra cash to free up more power?

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Chris, I haven't used them as they are out side our rules. I guess they would work.

[@ddk4664]

Hey chris we have used them and they do run very well, but we're worn out after 3 hours...so £££

[@richardgoldschrafe4747]

We use them, And they do work. On the lower power stuff they are on both ends. Rear cassette bearings benefit from frequent cleaning and don't use in wet conditions if avoidable. Fronts are less troublesome as they are better shielded in the hub. Some bearing oil and they are usually good.

[@IggySport1388]

Very interesting...i always thought it was a myth and they were just a waste of money

[@ilikemyboost]

Hi Dez, what silicone use to seal exhaust muffler and exhaust flange? i have a leak and most engine is black because of that leak :D Thanks

[@PowerRepublic]

do you have the new style evo one?

[@ilikemyboost]

@@PowerRepublic You mean engine or flange? I have Vortex ROk GP (SUPER ROK)

[@BLITZKRIEG1]

I reckon the Oxitech rims by AMV are much higher quality than the OTK ones.

[@PowerRepublic]

[@rjneuzel]

What brand of Bearings do you recommend?

[@PowerRepublic]

Nachi or SKF

[@jamesc5993]
