    Go Karting, Wheel Spin & Tire Pressure Survey

    Hey Gang,

    1. What pressure have you all found to be the best for getting the car to hook because tire spin is very easy to come by at only 1/3 to 1/2 throttle?
    2. I'm into some Extensive Go Kart Testing and am running 21 pounds of pressure on all four corners.
    3. Tires are NITTO 555's with 245/45-17's up front with 285/40-17's out back and have the 3 links set up and standard Red Koni's from Factory Five.
    4. I'm running a Mighty Mouse 383 SBC with 3.73's out back and am likely making in the 440-460 HP with torque numbers in the same range.

    NOTE: My engine specs are very similar to the Edelbrock Signature 383 with a little bigger head, a little more compression, a better breathing single plane intake, similar cam specs and the exact same carb.
