Dial in your dirt oval kart, from the scales to the green flag. KartGrip keeps your whole setup in one place — corner weights, cassettes, jack bolts, spindle washers, wheel spacing, gearing and alignment — so you stop guessing what you ran last time you were fast. BUILT FOR DIRT OVAL KARTS Outlaw and Rigid. Real kart hardware, not car parts with the names changed. Cassette line positions, jack bolt turns out, spindle washer counts above and below, wheel offset and rim width per corner, and wing angle and position for Outlaw. START ON THE SCALES Enter all four corner weights and KartGrip works out Total, Cross %, Left % and Front % as you type, with a heads-up when a number drifts outside the window for your class. TAPE MEASURE ENTRY Cassettes and jack bolts use a fraction keypad instead of a decimal box. Enter 3 1/2 lines or 2 1/4 turns the way you actually say it at the track. SCAN A SETUP SHEET Photograph a handwritten sheet and KartGrip reads the values off it, flags anything that looks misread, and lets you check every field before it saves. SAVE AND COMPARE Keep up to 5 setups free. Build a reference library per track, then load a night that worked and start from there. KARTGRIP PRO - AI Crew Chief — describe how the kart is handling and get a specific change back. Entry, middle or off the corner, worked against your actual corner weights, class and current setup. Built on dirt oval karting practice, not generic racing advice. - Cross Preview — see roughly where Cross % and corner load land from a jack bolt, washer or cassette change before you pick up a wrench. - RPM and Gear Estimator — check a gear change against your driver and rear gear on setup night instead of at the green flag. - PDF Setup Sheets — a clean one-page sheet for the clipboard, the trailer wall or a teammate. - Unlimited saved setups. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING No sign-up, no email, no analytics and no ads. Your setups live on your device. Full details in the privacy policy.
