Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the new Arrow X6.2 compared to an OTK?
I’m currently in an OTK but seeing a lot of Arrows winning, and thinking of making the switch. Anything I should be aware of in terms of setup and handling? I am in a KA3 class but may consider changing to TAG 125 unrestricted further down the track.
I’m interested to see the thoughts here, unfortunately we no longer get Arrows in the US (though I loved my AX-7 and AX-8 back in the 2000’s running Yamaha and Formula-Y), but I’ve heard that the modern Arrow karts are very much tailored to the AUS market (running on very hot tracks) but I don’t know if that’s just hearsay or not.
I tested an X6.2 last year against the current otk, I found the X6.2 to be faster and easier to drive. They’re pretty much DPE’s version of a KR. Set up is very similar, the kart works well on all lecont tyres in aus.
The latest Arrow 6.2 has been very fast in KA3 & TAG categories as they work tirelessly around developing a kart to the Australian conditions.
OTK have been left behind in recent years since the switch from MG to Le Cont.
