'putting your weight forwards when braking ia good as it puts your weight over the front wheels and putting your weigh backwards while accelerating.'

Its the other way around, moving back under breaking will give you more break stability while shifting forward will allow the rear axle to release.

'I was told last weekend that leaning towards the outside of the kart in a corner was beneficial as it put more weight over the outside wheel and would give you more grip.'

this is true but if you look at many of the quick driver they are usually either leaning in, or keeping themself quite still
