[@BernieTheEvilF1Ruler]

I did learn one new thing: I need to get a rubber handle for my trolley instead of race tape :)

[@PowerRepublic]

hahaha

[@neilr4867]

I did such a good job with customising my dpe trolley I kept it after selling my last kart 9 years ago. Just in case...

[@christianbuczko1481]

Im told the local track reopens next week, so im hoping to put this into practice..

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah boi, get some!

[@BLITZKRIEG1]

lucky my track has an excellent Shop right next door. My kart wouldn't start rang them and they drove out and replaced my spark plug totally free.

[@PowerRepublic]

props to the local kart shops getting it done for the new guys!!!

[@LeFollon]

Good tyre pressure tool, I see many people on the track with a car version.

Hey, nice video as always 😊 What about tilting the kart like that at 4:00 .. to get it down from the trolley .. is it safe for the brakes (in terms of bleeding) or carburetor?

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Z, yeah it’s fine. The carb will level out and it won’t effect your brakes

[@diegoavalle5551]

Hi. thank you so much for this video.I would like to try another setup of front axcle (i have a Tony kart 401 Racer). For you, in what order should I start testing? 2 clicks of camber, then full caster , then lower the front end (with 2 small spacer)

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah that a great start. make sure you record your 'feedback' from the test sessions. Also too, what exactly the problems/solutions/outcomes you are trying to achieve. Hope that helps Diego. thanks heaps for writing and tuning in! 😊

[@chriswilkinson-pearce3733]

Hi any tips on how to deal with a rear wheel hub slipping along the axle 🙏🏼

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah clean it with brake cleaner and emery paper. then apply some paint pen to the axle. then put the hub back on

[@heinrichwiedemann3646]

Ok, I recently discovered I like driving cars, around corners, as fast as I can. As a noob, what's better? A track/roadworthy rally/roadster, Speedway racing or karts? Do you do all three? Could be a great episode. It all kicked off with a day in a V8 at Queensland raceway. What an unreal experience! We backed it up with a few laps at the Pimpama kart track which was also cool and a surprisingly not the same but comparable experience. But I' sure nothing on a shifter-kart? Give us the low down please. I also have some mates that race speedway so I'd like to know you're opinion on that?

[@PowerRepublic]

karts are best for the amount of laps you get per day. start there cause its a mad buzz, at a fraction of the car racing cost. plus you get loads more laps which is perfect if you are a new guy

[@gerardvolders2604]

I think as a starter you also want to have a tire inflator. The one on for my bike also works for the kart. Always want to go to the track if i see your video's. Is there any online (good) video you know about how to change your rotax max piston? They say it is realy simple but i don't want to mess things up.

[@PowerRepublic]

you can watch our videos, we have a video about to drop on the Rotax engine. Drop me a message through our website and we can let you know when it is ready

[@spoileddoggproductions2559]

I second the inflator. It's wonderful to have a small portable inflator right on the stand tray ready to go. I impulse purchases a Ryobi for $25. The battery lasts all day and it's right there next to a good air gauge.

[@Demop_VW_garage]

yeh the intro :)

[@PowerRepublic]

epic times Niko

[@Fh77469]

Hi can you do a Rotax max evo senior vs x30 such as lap times , top speed , engine performance.... please

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Faris, at which track?

[@miltiadiscolivas5060]

What is the Denso plug youu recommend for the Rotax evo sr.?

[@PowerRepublic]

hey mate, we use and recommend the Denso Power Iridium IW24 - IW31 heat range spark plugs

[@josephkaratas8559]

[@paulp1450]

Hehe, the more videos I watch, the more I want to get back into racing...

[@shayanspeed8643]

Is it possible to transport the kart by a sedan?

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah it sure is. you have to remove wheels and plastics

[@pearlio7297]

You could strap it to the top lol.
