good thread.
all i can add is my gk1200 was as sloppy as could be off the track when you messed with the steering.
on track it was fine.
i redid the bolts once before i took it off for a restore.
one bolt got a little loose as steve mentioned and was pretty much junk by weekends finish.
i had originally just stuck the kart together to "test the frame and handling before restore.".
that went on for five years it was to fun to take outta the trailer.
as ted said these are percision machine and its more about driver skill than perfect chassis.
