206 Weight limits are IMO ridiculous

Curious, I know less weight is better but how much of a disadvantage is lets say 10lbs over?

Weight vs lap times

A F1 test driver and an ‘every day Joe’ put a kart through it’s paces to figure out how much slower they will both go with 44lbs (20kg) added to the kart vs their baseline times with no weight added - spoiler: not even half as much as they thought it would. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgQ2EsFheiA UPDATE: fair points from the comments that the tests being held indoors, and with rental karts, still leaves open questions about outdoor tracks with ‘real’ racing karts.

Figure .1 or less per 10 lbs.
