OTK TonyKart M7 Nassau Discussion

Some info here on coast down and CFD tests for CIK karts… not M7 specifically though. (Looks like I posted it further up… but we’ve got some recent uptick in the topic)

Aerodynamics and Karts

[image] In the “206 Karters at NCMP” facebook group Matt Geist took the time to compare CIK vs Gold up type noses. So, let’s talk aero for karts. Have you experimented with different aero things? What did you discover? Does it matter? If so, how much?
