HOW TO LEAN IN KARTING (TUTORIAL)
In today's video we compare the differences between leaning into a corner and leaning out of a corner in Go Karting.

[@kartingtips]

0:24 it’s because of INERTIA not gravity* Thank you to everyone who pointed this out! 😆

Centrifugal force

[@agie170hss2]

This video makes the assumption that the kart is inherently "neutral" or has a slight push. In the real world, nothing is ever that simple or stable. There can be cases where a kart has a bit of a push in one corner, and may be a bit loose in another corner (actually, this can easily happen, as the left/right weight balance of a kart is almost never perfect). Also, hand position on the steering wheel is a far more effective way to control weight shift than "leaning" -- move your hands closer to the top of the steering wheel, and more weight is "naturally" shifted to the outside, whereas moving hands closer to the bottom of the steering causes weight to be shifted toward the inside. Additionally, pushing or pulling on the steering wheel can cause slight changes in how the chassis functions under braking or acceleration due to how the chassis is flexed with that force. Bottom line: it's not nearly as simple as leaning in or out.

I tried the 'lean out' method on my motorbike, it didn't work out too well!

haha amazing

[@Real28]

LOL well you're missing 2 tires for that move!!

[@geraldmaga5803]

i dont want to break the fun but there is something similiar to lean out when using bike which is counter lean when your bike lean sharper than you

[@speeddemon467]

This is crazy - I've done a fair bit of karting and even won a league championship several years ago, but I've honestly never considered leaning in vs. leaning out. I'm fairly quick, so I'd like to think that I've been leaning out without thinking about, but even if that's the case, it's never been deliberate. What you're suggesting makes so much sense. Now I can't wait to get back to the track to test it out! Thanks for posting this!!

[@kartingtips]

Thanks for your feedback! Regarding leaning out, there is no need to exaggerate it. Simply go with the natural force which always pushes you away from the corner.

[@F1L337]

I always exaggerated the leaning in the rain (both, outer front and back tyres). Helped me a lot with grip and reducing the impact on curbs.

[@CharlieBBB]

Im karting at my local on monday night turning up early to get this test session in because I know I lean in on a couple corners

[@Stormtrooper-oc4vn]

Everyone is slow around you then 😅

[@ekinteko]

@@kartingtips I'm still a little confused. Can you help? If you're "leaning in" wouldn't that weight make the inside tyres spin slower, making it turn faster, since the outside tyres are spinning faster. Or perhaps, that is true, but it's still a slower technique due to other reasons. The biggest one I can think of is reduced traction. But you'd think you would have higher traction with the "leaning in" method. Maybe it's a case of like having a deflated tyre.... yes there's greater surface area, hence traction, but it might be about a balance of traction/Goldilocks zone. For instance, "too much traction" = "frictional forces" = "less efficiency" = "less speed" = "slower laptime". Would that make sense? I feel like that's where you were heading with this concept. If we take that above hypothesis as correct, then we can think about how to optimise traction. I'm wondering if you can get EVEN FASTER laptimes by "leaning back" during turns. You may want to shift the weight to the back tyres, so that the front tyres can turn more effectively. Go karts only have the front two wheels that can turn, the rear ones can merely slide. There's no fancy Four-Wheel Steering like we see with the Nissan GT-R and other sports cars.

[@ameen1358]

Depends if a guy is next to me and I need to shove him I'll lean to the inside so the understeer will smoothly push him aside😊

[@kartingtips]

Big brain techniques

[@Shark00n1337]

You! Bloody!!

[@justinmeade2327]

So you’re a dirty racer then?

[@mrh3085]

You can also keep in contact with someone’s bumper entering into a corner and push them through and wide out the exit. 😉😎

[@carsunlimited5279]

advice from a guy driving in world championship, lean inside if there is too much grip to avoid the kart to bump, lean outside if the track is slippery to add more grip, sometimes you have to lean inside at the entry to slide the kart in, and once you exit you lean outside to create better traction. it really depends on the track, the kart, the situation. But most of the time, world class kart driver i compete against lean inside or straight, because in big world championship, there is so much grip on the ideal line that you have to lean inside otherwise the kart jump like crazy because of the grip, when you lean outside you can almost break your ribs because of the insane grip, it happened to me. so you mostly lean inside in big championship.

[@Le_equitabliste]

Helpful. Although in rental karts especially with the tyres used the grip is mininal. And youll often lose time sliding but its good advice especially to ne carefuk of the ribs.

[@carsunlimited5279]

@@Le_equitabliste no even in rental, in big competition the grip can become very big, so big that you can roll over the kart in some track ( i drive all over europe in indoor and outdoor i have driven in more than 70+ track with rental and 2 stroke competition) some track have no grip, but some track are grippy as hell, i remember a world championship where it was so hot, that the tyre melted to the track and we had to cut the rubber with knifes because the tyre was melted with the ground and it was rental karting..the grip was crazy that day. if you drive outdoor, usually the older the ground is the lighter grey it will look and the more slippery the track will be and the more likely you will have to slide in rental kart to be fast, in reverse, a new ground concrete ground, will be darker almost black and you tend to have more grip and you will have to drive clean with no slide to be fast. also, the less temperature you have ( in winter ) the more you will have to slide, and the cleaner you will have to be in summer. same for humidity, the more humid the more slide, the more dry less slide and more clean.

[@benistingray6097]

Great comment, the video is good but its only situational. Every kart is different even when you have the same rental cars, every track is different, you have different weather and temparature and its something you have to reassess every time. And yeah you can break rips by just leaning outside, i broke 3 on 2 different occasions, at least they are more robust now lol

[@carsunlimited5279]

@@benistingray6097 yes it can even vary from the qualifying to the race, and situation can change during a 10 minute race too, good driver has to adapt lap after lap, yes for the ribs it strenghten with the time, have also lots of elbows tendinities when i compete too much

[@user-km1of4fw9u]

Thanks!

[@anthoslykos6294]

I will try this technique next time I'm at the track! I'm quick but I'm also a heavier driver so shifting my weight is key to being fast. After watching this I realized I've been thinking about my weight shifting all wrong and definitely lean in a lot more than I should. I'm eager to work on this now and see how I improve, thank you!

[@jackson.2171]

Same! I just assumed you’d want a flat kart rather than pushing one side of the kart. Such an oversight!

[@Bxtc23]

The kart is still flat but more weight on the outside wheel gives it more traction most kart racers do it so subtle it’s hard to see the lean makes an incredible difference took 2 second at my local track leaning out

[@benspear]

Same! Years doing it wrong 😂

[@KrustyKlown]

I'd suggest NOT learning bad driving habits that help crappy rental karts handle better. Get yourself a proper real racing kart, learn to set it up correctly, then you won't be doing silly stuff like leaning the wrong way while driving.

[@thisisryker]

@@KrustyKlown I think you should absolutely do everything that will make you faster right there and right now. It is crucial skill if you want to be a competitive driver. If your rig demands to lean whatever, you absolutely should. Otherwise you will always blame your rig, weather, opponents, your mom, for you beating slow.

[@CaptainAwesomeness]

Depending on the situation, lean out or neutral in my case. Human DRS is common in my class, so I'm all for it! It's effective as heck! It also helps when two competitors team up to create a bigger DRS to catch up to the lead and begin to compete once the ones in the lead have been "taken down".

[@macca462]

Great vid, really quite a counter intuitive concept, but as soon as you explained the lack of a diff it made sense! You taught an old man with a reasonable amount of mechanical knowledge (but very limited karting experience) something new, thank you!

[@alejmc]

Fantastic video, I knew about how lack of differential hampers turning ability (i.e. if both tires were directly powered that kart will mostly go straight), but never thought about lifting weight from the inner side. The quick jabs vs constant turning was mind blowing :O Subbed.

[@kartingtips]

Thank you for your feedback :)

[@andrewstambaugh240]

I don't even cart, but i enjoy driving and riding, and this was interesting to learn. My 92 Corolla was very easy to pick up the inside rear wheel around turns. That was always fun.

[@PintoPTGamer]

Thanks for the advice, never realised it makes that big of a difference

[@Szarps]

interesting take on this. Never thought about how much something as simple as leaning could make such a difference! Mind you i dont do kart racing, but i like racing in general and always good to have some knowledge handy if ever the chance appears. I was expecting a bit more of a longer conclusion as you mentioned some differences between leaning in and out with mixed results. Clearly there is time to be gained by know when you should apply one or the other.

[@vampire4312]

Had this discussion years ago when I was regularly driving on a local karttrack with some friends. After some thoughts and experimentation we came to the same conclusion: Leaning out is the shit - it's faster and "easier" (you don't have to fight G-forces so much, just "go with the flow") - but it's a bit counterintuitive, people just tend to lean into curves naturally.

[@TheDrAkira]

I was racing a lot in an amateur league of rental karts, and i just learnt the lean out technique naturally. It's just like you said, its all about the flow. Plus you really feel the steering wheel doing it, it's just natural! Also the "Human DRS" hahhahha, that was another thing that came out naturally after several races. Good ol' times before the pandemic... Now i'm to fat to race again, and also I moved to another country. Great tips, I wish I had these videos back then, I could save a lot of time!

thanks man, it helped alot!

[@wilberdp]

In mower racing we used to do both. The seats were pretty flat so we welded “grab handles” to the fenders. This would let you scoot off the seat into the bar and then you would lean into the corner to avoid tipping.

[@bercivarga209]

I dont know why but somany people say that when taking a corner that you should lean to the inside, but I already knew if you do that you just get less grip and you work against the natural force. I told my father thta if you lean to the outside you not just only gain a little extra grip to your tires at the outside but you dont work against the force that is actually kinda usefull. Found youre vid and its pretty good. Keep up the content!

[@kitbautista9511]

can't wait to hit the track. Thank you!

[@MaxOxx1]

For most corners and situations I totally agree. On a few occasions, I found it better to lean forward and into the corner to create maximum traction on the front tires. This is the case on very sharp and slow corners and wright after braking. The second the go-kart pulls you, you need to lay back to add weight to the rear tire.

[@piereligiodisante]

This. In some occasions, you'd like a bit more understeer. That's only in the corners where you feel oversteer is the first "danger" of the corner. This can happen in smaller tracks. Where traction is the limit, I guess leaning back/into the corner helps. I never took too seriously the lean out techique because in the indoor track where I go, they're mostly hairpins. So you get into the corners with the brake, mostly. But I have to try the lean out in some corners, I didn't think about the difference in oversteer/understeer being the reason of doing so.

[@dgb5820]

This was great

[@teeambird2079]

Coming from cycling/motorbikes I assumed leaning in to the apex gave the inside wheels more grip but I should try this.

[@Veer_Shandilya]

Great vid. Very informative, I will definitely try this out next time I go karting. You earned another sub.

[@SteeGene]

Amazing advice, thank you!

[@benkaczmar]

I’ve only been karting a few times but a personal preference I figured out was that I like my seat further back so that my weight is towards the back of the kart. The leaning is something I will have to try though.

[@Dstructeur1]

I think I naturally found the best technique, I always wondered in or out until I’ve seen this video today which explains the science behind it, so I just adapted to each corner be it a corner where I needed a slight understeer to get a perfect next corner entry or a sharper turn where I needed to lift the inside rear. Thank you very much for your video! Easy science, but as long as you’ve never heard it, it always seems shady.

[@Dstructeur1]

[@MartinPuedes]

Girated lift with a break pedal gradual release for fast right turn escapes (go-kart chairs are more central than the frame. So if you can put more pressure on that outside corner, you've effectivly created more downforce. One of the few times I come somewhat out of my chair I tend not to try it on left turn exits, since you want to have good throttle control too on exit. So you can only do it if you can manage your breaking prior to the release.

[@hockysa]

wow. I've been delibrately leaning in all my life as that's what the guy working at the track told me many years ago and I never questioned it. will definitely be trying this next time.

[@kartingtips]

Let me know how it goes!

[@josipdolibasic4143]

It's not gravity that pushes you to the outside, but centrifugal force, which is a result of the car's inertia.

[@tophmyster]

Centrifugal force is a pseudo force, it just describes the relation between inertia and centripetal force from a rotating reference frame

I remember when I started karting, I used to not manage the weight shifting at all, I kinda just sat there and let the G's do whatever, then after going to a basic karting camp one time, I started taking more care, however I tend to lean into corners, mostly with my head and upper body. I feel like that might be a reason for why I tend to overturn the kart and slide it a lot more too. And it definitely impacts the time I can achieve per lap.

Nice input about the no differential in go karts

[@pavelslama5543]

Im really a beginner when it comes to racing IRL (outside of a PC sim), but the track in a town I live in is in a multi level parking building, and its really slow with really sharp corners, but also a kinda powerful karts. The result is that leaning out makes you very likely to hit a barrier at least with your arm, while leaning in in the wrong moment may also do the same. The result is that I mostly do not lean until I pass the apex, and then I naturally lean out which helps with nice exit speed (which I really need, since Im heavier than all of my friends who I kart with).

[@chomsky1of1]

thanks for this! im a bit heavier so i notice a bit of a difference the way my body is placed. i fooled around with leaning back and forth to shift weight but never side to side. im about to cook for sure

[@Mr98Raco]

0:25 It is worth to mention that it is not gravity that pushes you to the outside. Instead it is the centrifugal force. When being leaned outside though, it is the gravitational force which adds extra pressure to the outer tyres by redistributing the drivers weight, which for reasons not known to me allows the kart to go faster through corners.

[@harrybaston-hall5516]

It'll be the fact that it's countering the understeer on the inside tires by taking weight off of them, so you're effectively taking a wider line while keeping the cart in the same place :). Imagine the inside and outside tires are like 2 motorbikes, the outside ones are taking a shallower curve so weighting them over the inside ones means more speedy speed.

[@loekloekloek]

Centripetal force*

[@fatbreadsan]

More pressure to the outer tyres means more traction, and more acceleration for that outer tyre. So what happens? Let's think a bit. The outside tyres will travel more distance than the inside tyres due to having more acceleration, so the car will have a tendency to turn inwards, aka getting centripetal acceleration. With this, and assuming no major grip losses, it is possible to carry more momentum throughout the corner than without the centripetal acceleration, hence having more speed. Hopefully that helps. Edit: I should probably include that since karts generally have lock differentials, having same/similar grip level for the inward and outward tyres is not desirable at cornering since the kart will want to straighten out from having similar acceleration from the inward and outward tyres. The excessive wheelspin for the inwards tyres will also lessen the tyre lifespan

[@tonkinesenchill4240]

Really interesting video. I’ve always naturally leaned heavily to the inside from the waist up with my hips/ butt pressed into the outside corner of the seat. I also sit quite hunkered down with the shoulders and head more forward. With this style I seem to gain time on people in fast sweeping corners and into hard braking zones. Tighter and more off camber corners seem to be weaker for me, so I’ll see if I can adjust a little based on what you’ve shown in this video.

[@kesetokaiba]

I never leaned in any direction; I just assumed that it wouldn't make a difference because the kart is heavy compared to the driver. Now, I learned something :)

[@PriitKallas]

Good to know!

[@KG-yc6cl]

Felt counterintuitive because I was thinking of side car racing where they lean heavily into the turn. But if you think of American dirt track oval racing they deliberately setup the car to get lift on the inside front tire. You want the outside rear to give you drive and outside front to countersteer.

[@am-qd6sq]

The information with no differential i know but i forget, i leave in, but by the next drive i will test it. Thx

[@TheJcman72]

I never thought about that, great tip! About the human DRS, since I'm quite tall, I always do it.

[@whracing]

The reason why leaning on the outside of the kart increases grip and presses the shoulder of the outside tyres into the ground. Leaning over the front inside wheel in the wet done correctly can help with turn in. So actually both can work in different circumstances

[@Stirls23]

Well explained. Ty

[@clintonezeh7556]

Also when cornering the outer tyres are more involved. So by shifting weight to the outer tyres, they get more grip and the kart can turn harder.

[@fczocker]

I did a lot of Slalom karting in the past so you have a lot of ultra tight turns and Standing Starts. I Always have been one of the biggest and heaviest Guys in my class so i Had to BE even better to compete with the top guys that weighed 20-30 kg less. I did by using a lot of lean Out in Kombination with overbraking the rear a Lot to Take the Moment um through the Corner. In Standing Starts a Kind of hopping was helpful to keep the rears slightly slipping for longer and keep the kart in a Higher rpm Band for better Power Delivery. In Addition to that we had very short Stop zones so it helped to use a Kind of human Aero Brake while leaning to the Back for better traction in the rears and steer fast from Side to Side.

[@milescarter7803]

I heard it was something to do with the increased friction of a tire with extra pressure on it. But the explanation of unloading the inside tire so the straight axle is not fighting itself is a good one too. Karts also have a suspension, it is the compliance of the chassis. Maybe getting the chassis in a 'set' to the outside takes up all the compliance and makes the handling more predictable?

[@d15z1sux]

Ive been doing it wrong all this time, im bigger and heavier than most of my friends so i need to try this next time and see if this helps. I usually lose on the straighta though.

[@MrSevRico]

Great video! Just one correction: Gravity dont push your body to the outside when cornering. Earth's gravity only pulls you downwards. The centrifugal force that happens when you are doing a corner dont have nothing to do with gravity. If you do a corner in a zero G environment, you will still feel the centrifugal force.
