KART ANALYSIS
is a software designed to help technical and
drivers in setting up of the chassis and tires of kart.
It lets you take advantage your data acquisition to
analyze the behavior of the frame and for
quickly have guidance on how to intervene on the setup,
and tire pressure to improve the performance in relation to the characteristics of the
track , to its conditions, and to the driving style of
driver. |

|
How it works?
|
|
1. Go on track for your session |
2. Download the acquired data |
 |
 |
|
3. Import the data in Kart Analysis |
4. Get the Best SET-UP |
 |
 |
The software Kart Analysis can work with all the main
data acquisition system (2D, AIM, ALFANO, RKS, STARLANE, UNIPRO,
COSWORTH),
the important thing is that they have applied the speed and
lateral acceleration sensors (in the case of Starlane acquisitions to
place of the lateral acceleration, it is important that
detected trajectory GPS).
The operation of the software is very simple, in fact is
sufficient to export the data from your acquisition software and import them in Kart Analysis.
At this point entering in the software the data of your kart and setup the software calculates
all the values importants to understand the behavior of your frame chassis and of your tyres.
The instructions that the software provides for the kart setup
and the tires pressure are derived from what you actually
acquired from your acquisition system so you can directly solve
the problems that the driver has encountered in the driving to
get the maximum performance.
In fact in addition to the main results that allow you to
correct your set-up and your tire pressure in
according to the characteristics of the track, the conditions of
grip and the driving style of the driver, for the technical
more attentive the software also shows a series of quantities that
allow adetailed analysis of the behavior of
the frame, the engine and the transmission. |
|
BEST SETTING |
To obtain the maximum performance you must reach two focus:
| 1 |
TO HAVE A KART EASY TO DRIVE FOR THE DRIVER
(to reduce at the maximum understeer and oversteer) |
| 2 |
TO HAVE THE MAXIMUM GRIP WITH THE MINIMUM TYRES SLIP ANGLE |
|
|
To satisfy the first focus you should act on the CHASSIS SETTING,
for the second on the TYRES PRESSURE, and on the CAMBER. |
|
To define the interventions usually you refer at the driver
feeling, or at the acquired data, but unfortunately, since that
the kart is really complex, often you can't have a clear and
complete picture of the situation to make the right choices. |
| Instead
the software Kart Analysis thanks at its calculations
allows to analyze in all the points of the track the
aspects that affect the performance invece: |
 |
|
|
UNDERSTEER-OVERSTEER |
 |
 |
|
|
SLIP ANGLE and SLIP ANGLE DRAG |
 |
 |
|
|
Thanks to these clear and complete informations, the software
calculates how modify the CHASSIS SETTING and the TYRES PRESSURE
to improve the performance |
 |
The software will tell you how to modify the kart
set-up by providing the following settings:
CAMBER
CASTER
ECCENTRICS
ACKERMANN
TOE
FRONT TRACK
REAR TRACK
AXLE
BARS
|
In addition to the chassis settings, the software
calculates the best BRAKE DISTRIBUTION.
Moreover it will also tell you how to adjust the TIRES PRESSURE. |
|
| As well as adjusting the
pressures to have the best performance in the first
laps, the software will also show you how to adjust the
pressures based on atmospheric and ground conditions and
in relation to the number of laps that you need to do.
In fact, the software calculates the TIRE TEMPERATURE
lap by lap and shows you how to adjust them to always
have the optimal pressure both in qualifying and in race
conditions. |
 |
|
|
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS |
 |
The software first shows
the behavior that the kart had in the session being
considered. |
|
Thanks to these calculations you can have an immediate
view of the engine performance, of the grip that the
tires has been able to provide on braking, traction and
corner both to the front and to the rear, and of the
behavior that the kart has had in the various stages of
driving, braking, entry corner, exit corner and
acceleration. Moreover, since that the kart doesn't have
the differential, the software shows how the rear axle
has affected the various driving phases. |
In addition to
the optimal SETTING and TYRES PRESSURE , and to
the summary picture, the software shows the
grphs of all the quantities calculated, to allow
at technicians and mechainics to understand
again better the behavior of the kart in every
aspect, and to refine furthermore the setting,
comparing also the results of the sessions with
different set-up.
 |
| VEHICLE SLIP ANGLE |
| AXLE YAW TORQUE |
| STEERING FORCE |
| SLIP ANGLE DRAG |
| ROLLING DRAG |
| WHEELS LOAD |
| DYNAMIC CAMBER |
| TYRES DEFLECTION |
| LATERAL FORCES |
| LONGITUDINAL FORCES |
| TYRES SLIP RATIO |
| TYRES SLIP ANGLE |
| POWER |
| GRIP ELLIPSE |
|
|
|
Together with the graphs, some quantities are also shown on the
track to have a global view of the critical points. |
 |
In karting, the rear axle having no differential is of
great importance because it significantly affects
driveability. Thanks to the software calculations it is
possible to see how much the understeer or oversteer
problems encountered by the driver are attributable to
the axle, and consequently make the correct choices for
caster adjustment |
|
 |
The caster adjustment also influences the force that the
driver must use on the steering wheel, therefore this
calculation allows to see if the choices made can make
the kart too tiring to drive.
|
|
|
|
|
The software Kart Analysis
is therefore an instrument fundmental that you must have in your team
to obtain the best chassis setup and the optimal tires pressure
in every conditions of the track and for each driving style, in fact
will be your acquisition to provide the informations and then the calculations performed being the result of what really happens
will be accurate and reliable in every situation. |
