I am working on a 2001 oval kart that I have plans of racing upon the arrival of the next oval track race season. I have never raced oval but it looks like a blast. My plans are to run a predator 212 Hemi with a RTC-8 head. Below are pictures of my starting point. I have replaced every bearing on the kart so far, spindle bearings, rear axle bearings, and tie rods. I am refreshing everything I can. It will be like my mini bike for a while, all ratty as its too cold to sandblast right now and I would like to run it a bit and not worry about scratches and what not. The kart is a 2001 Legend Vision kart. It is not like the newer karts that have heim joints for camber/caster adjustment. The only adjustment is the up/down of the wheel height, or so I think. Anyways, plan on having some fun with it no matter what. If you have any tips/suggestions please share as I am new to the whole kart setup task. The pictures look like the kart is pink, but its filthy, and it is actually the color of my compressor in the background. I will pressure wash it next warm day.
