Race Kart Seat Guide - Choosing The Best One

Talking about which kart seat to choose and how it will affect the handling. There are several different seat stuffiness's which will either add grip or free up the kart. Having a comfortable seat is very important so we talk about the different shapes and really focus upon one of the best seats made by Tillett. We'll make a few follow-up videos focusing on how to mount a seat and the position plus the different hardware available. See our website at kartingconcepts.com/ A lot of kart handling is all theory and what may work on well on one chassis might not on another, something else to consider is the kart tires your class runs makes a big difference in the seat choice.

Wish you would've included driver weight and grip circumstances of the track into the recommendation for seat stiffness; I think this is a super complex topic that hasn't been properly explained anywhere yet.

I’m building a CRG kart with a built 16hp predator 212. Should i run a left and right seat brace to stiffen the chassis even more? I don’t have any right now

If I am 189 cm and skiny, wich will be my best size of seat??

Hey question for you, is it possible to identify what model and stiffness tillet seat you have if you didn't originally buy the seat your self brand new? I got mine with my kart but I've got no clue what type/stiffness it is

I'm going to put a carbon seat on my 401 Tony kart, it just looks better. I'm only 54kg though, and I suspect being so light will mean it will handle more like a stiffer tillet seat which from this vid would make it too stiff for the rear. Especially as it's got 3 seat stays attached as is.

And my seat now has black PU leather with green stitching over full pads around the sides and back and a memory foam seat pad with a gel layer to spread weight. Its like a little armchair..
