BODY POSITION While driving. Is it better to "Lean-in" or "Lean-out" 

I’m going to use this next session. Thank you very much for the great videos.

I usually lean out to get the inside wheel to pick up since karts don't have a diff.

Leaning out makes a massive difference in my humble opinion, I've tried both, better grip, better lap times. 🤷‍♂️

I lean out because it gives more load on the outside tires lifting the inside tires making it easier to turn

your videos helped me improve my karting a lot. thanks ryan greeting from germany

Leaning is depending on some many different factors, the height of the driver for example and the amount of grip on the track. On a track with low grip, or in the rain leaning can sometimes be helpful. But honestly when there comes grip on a racetrack leaning will rather slow you down, bogging the kart down out of the slow corners. Leaning isn´t the golden key to getting up front in the field or to get to the midfield out of nowhere. Other things as trail braking and just use the brake correctly have a much bigger impact on the amount (and the length) of the rear wheel lift. It's far more important to use the brake properly, and for most people here thats even hard enough.

Keeping your eyes horizontal to the track surface will help with not leaning in or out too much too. Great point about having a correctly fitted seat, it's very important.

Mark Kimber is the guy with most lean out. Oakley Pryer is the guy with the most speciel body movement. I myself use leaning inside and outside when there is low grip and stand still with high grip or perfect setup

Thanks Ryan, I'm going to try this at new castle this weekend

great adive, i have been waiting for you to do a video on this.

I lean out on some corners, as I am taller than most it helps to rotate but if I lean to much I loose grip, so I only lean my head

Words of wisdom.

I find going With what the g-forces pull you works the best you move around abit not enough just works for me

I have a race this weekend, let's see how this is gonna work out🔥

In Norway it is very much focus on leaning

Viktor gustafsson in kz have the most lean in.

I'm very short and small, I don't even think I can move my body around when driving. There are some tall drivers that are very good on the wet moving their body around, but I don't think I could achieve that.

I race with rental karts. I tried to stay centered but, as rental karts very so much, some times I lean for the outside before the turn, so my weight is "already" in the "right" position during the turn. But is the minority of times.

I think you lean outwards so that the inside rear wheel lifts better.

you analogy about lean, does not translate to skiing. it looks like we stay upright but we actually try to lean out to outside ski grip.... With that said I am not sure leaning out would be an advantage in karting

And what about rental go-kart? Is it same or not?

Hi Ryan can you send me the link where I can buy your merch.? Like your cap 🧢? Please

Bro I lean in but don’t even realize I lean in how can I fix that it’s just a bad habit

Look up the mass damper that Renault f1 developed and was banned.
