The castor adjusters and the stubs are a lot sturdier than the F1 chassis, and to my eye it doesn't look like a custom job. (If it is then it's a very good one!) The camber struts are kinked so they aren't as readily adjustable as the castor, but yeah its definitely an interesting kart to tinker with. Not knowing much about steering geometry just yet, its easy to make adjustments and see a noticable difference right away.

I expect its quite an old frame though, it has a completely flat profile.

I'm still buildnig up my tool collection, laser tracking is I have to say quite low down on the list due to the cost. I have had a few heavy impacts and to be fair its holding up very nicely , the worst I've had is a bend in the chrome bar holding on the front bumper. Having nylon track rods is probably helping to protect the struts.

I just wish I knew who made it in case I have a trip through a fence or something...

Cheers
Matt
