The eccentrics can be rotated to reduce the amount of caster, which will make the chassis
easier to steer and it will remove front-end grip as well. The Front-end geometry can
effect the chassis in many different ways as well depending upon the track conditions.
We recommend keeping it basic until you are familiar and comfortable making these
changes to your chassis.

5. Front-End Ride Height Adjustments
The Kosmic Racing Kart has three (3) washers that are placed between the stub axles and
the ‘C’ on the Front-end of the chassis. Two (2) of the washers are special 4mm thick
washers (PN 0215.00) and one (1) standard 1.5mm thick washer (PN RP 10x16x1.5). By
altering these washers you will be effectively changing the front ride height. The chassis
comes standard with one 4mm washer on top of the stub axle and the remaining washers
below the stub axle. This is a recommended starting position at all venues.
Raising the Front Ride Height
This is accomplished by placing washers from the bottom of the stub axle and placing
them on top of the stub axle. This has a positive effect on the entire chassis when the grip
levels increase and the chassis begins to understeer. Essentially the front ride height has
been increased so, when the steering wheel is turned the inside tire is pushed/forced
