THE RATCHET HUB: The Ratchet Hubs are designed to be run on the Right Rear of an oval track kart with higher HP. Animal modifieds, 2 cycles, big outlaw engines. When the driver backs off the throttle before entering the corner, the ratchet hub "un locks". This allows the two rear wheels to rotate at different speeds. Since the right rear tire has to go farther, it needs to move faster than the Left rear. That's why we ran stagger in the first place. The use of the Ratchet Hub on the right rear corner will greatly reduce your dependency on rear wheel stagger. The rear stagger will only come into play now when you tune the chassis for corner exit speed. As the driver gets back into the throttle, in or before the center of the corner, the ratchet hub locks the rear tires together again for a posi-traction effect, giving full acceleration capabilities to you high dollar engine. We are always available to help with tuning tips for these hubs. We are as close as your phone. $300.00
The FREE ROLLER hubs are designed to be run on the LR of an oval kart in the stock and restricted stock oval classes. Using one of these hubs on your kart eliminates the need for rear wheel stagger, lets the kart roll through the corner quicker and allows for the kart to increase speed down the straightaway by eliminating that unwanted wheel scrub that comes from rear wheel stagger. $175.00
