Anyone have any tips on driving 390 Thunderkarts? Any advice? Any tricks? lol
Do you not use the brakes, but scrub the speed off when turning in?? Watched a vid where they seemed to do that! Confused

Cheers

LOVE YOUR WHEELS!!!!!!!!!!!! Very Happy

as for driving corporate karts i found you had to use brakes very little but when you do need to brake, brake very late and have a little lock up to help the kart turn in as it should bring the back end round.

apart from that have fun as its not your kart so doesn't matter how much contact u have Twisted Evil

lean forward to help get weight of of the back wheels to help get them spinning as corp karts are so underpowered they need all the help they can get.

are they electrically contolled as my local place (not thunderkarts i don't think Confused ) but if you hit someone of or summit Rolling Eyes they could slow you down out on track (b*stards!) does anyone know how they do this?

oh and did i say that i LOVE your wheels?

Laughing !! Cheers man! They are my sexy wets! Razz I tried to get the same colour slicks, but they only had the right size for my wets! Lol! O well! Razz

Cheers for that! I had a feeling it was more physical with corps, in that you throw urself around more than the kart! lol

hehehehehe yeah i thought about that! Its not my set of pods or sticker kit. . so Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Laughing

Oh n those electronic limiters are controlled by buttons in the control station at the track. . they hit the button and it messes up the spark temporarily! its gay! lol

Oh n yeah, U did say u love mi wheels! Razz Cool
