First of all I must say well done on one of the best sims I've ever played, In about 20 years of gaming. The quality of the beta for such a small team is very impressive PiBoSo.
Over the years I think I've tried all the serious racing games out there from Grand turismo - Live for speed - netkart pro - forza motorsport.

Put it this way xmas I brought quite a few games in the STEAM xmas sales, I stumbled across this on race department over the xmas period  installed and played this little gem for the rest of xmas.
Once I get payed the end of the month the first thing im doing is buying two copies of kart racing pro one for myself and one for an old friend I no he will love this game.


Now A FEW QUESTIONS i could do with help on, bare in mind my only karting experince as been at local indoor/outdoor karting centers. So i have never set one up and only really ever drove arrive and drive karts.
Which bring me onto my next question, BRAKE pressures what do you guys use, on teh demo kart Im having to bring teh front pressure down to about 50 and the back to about 65% or my wheel lock into every bend, unless a very small amount of pressure is added.

Im currently driving using my 360 pad (pre patch I could do 44.*s second laps since beta 5 im down to 46.*s) My setup makes the kart oversteer now, could anyone help me with a basic setup ? Ill be getting my g25 out the weekend. Havent had chance yet. I really dont undertsand half teh chassis setting etc, and brakes im used of a bias. So this is going to be nice to learn.

Also Steering what should this be set to to mirror real life are karts 180 or 270 degrees of rotation for steering ?

Also I havent noticed since the new beta my laptimer mounted on the dash is it called a unipro laptimer or something like that, well it doesn't update in real time now it updates say once a second leaving figures like so...

0.00mph
8.5mph
22.mph
40mph
52mph
58mph
62mph
70mph

same for revs is this a bug or how the timer is meant to work in real life tried to find a youtube video of it in action but cant find anything.

The real display is updated 2 times per second.
