Kart Setup for Rain Conditions – Grip, Balance & Confidence

🌧️ Chassis & Handling Adjustments

  • Ride Height: Raise the chassis to increase grip by improving weight transfer.

  • Camber & Caster: Set camber to 0° or slight positive; add maximum caster for more front-end bite. Increase front track width 

  • Axle Flexibility: Use a softer axle to increase traction on slippery surfaces. Run track width as narrow as allowed by regulations.

💦 Driving Technique for Wet Grip

  • Avoid rubbered-in dry lines—opt for cleaner, gritty lines.

  • Brake earlier and more gradually using trail braking.

  • Apply throttle gently and progressively out of corners.
