- Sounds is a very important thing, the bouncing of a KZ when in low rev range would be nice :)
- having the option to look down whilst tucking! And being able to Tuck in KZ Whilst shifting
- Choking in KZ
* When you bounce/bunny hop it is because the tyres are gripping and you are too sideways and the eninge rpm doesn't drop or anything unless your foot comes off the gas which is most of the time and would be a good feat to have
* tucking and shifting in a KZ is physically possible, have done it myself and it works as seen in this video of me doing it, ok it isn't in sprint racing but it is still possible http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5ti5WxQ98k
* Choking a KZ helps but it isn't usually seen by a shifter kart driver as there is usually no need to choke due to front brakes  unless it is very hot or you need more power then that is pretty much the only time you choke in a KZ
I very commonly see shifter kart drivers choke, and they shift whilst ducking (mainly on longer tracks like Zuera).

What does choking in a KZ do exactly, drive one myself and never tried it and didn't want to do it just in case my engine did something wrong since it's such an old engine

Choking has the same results as any other class whilst choking, you cut off the airflow and what it is doing is creating a massive suction throughout the internal part of the airbox sucking an excessive amount of fuel into the carburetor. doing this is a fast way to cool the engine down but only works when throttle is open, and KZ only chock one hole of the aribox untill 1m before breaking then they cover both just for a nice amount of gas waiting to be used :)

- Being able to choose the height of the driver, as one size is not all.
uhmm, errata corridge  ;) you are right, there is something to adjust.
I use 75 fov for all karts but for mini I use 70. also the height of mini maybe is too height

Also, one thing that I believe MUST be fixed. The draft in this sim is far too unrealistic. So much to the fact that when you're driving behind another kart on the track you lose all traction and it becomes a game of who can stay on the track of ice for the longest. In real life it is definitely not like this, the traction you lose it barely noticeable.

Definitely a +1 for the beta 9. Mini 60 is amazing!

Also, this is no big deal, but shouldn't the drivers have a neck collar?   ???
There's always a lot of talk about motivation to race, but nobody really knows what I do or what I think apart from myself, so I don't really care what people think.     -Kimi Raikkonen

Most drivers around here don't wear neck protection. I find it extremely uncomfortable and the good ones are too expensive.

That's interesting. In America, its pretty much required to have one.
