Default Carbide needs more torque
So, I got to take my Carbide trail riding for the first time at Land between the Lake's Turkey Bay, and I have to say, it was AWESOME. The kart did pretty good on the trails, considering the weight of the kart, plus the weight of me and my dad (320 lbs.), (840 lbs. all together with the weight of the kart). I was impressed with the hills we could climb. However, there were a few times when one of us had to get out and help push it up a hill. So, my question is this. What is the cheapest way to pull more torque out of it. Note: I don't want to sacrifice top end speed. What are your suggestions?
