Real-world kart racers know that a standard GT or Formula sim cockpit feels completely different from a sprint kart. In a kart, the steering shaft angles sharply upward toward your chest while your feet sit forward against vertical pedals. Advanced SimRacing engineered the ASR K Chassis (Generation 2) ($588.99 net with code SIMRACINGNATION5) specifically for competitive karting drivers.
True Karting Geometry Meets Aluminum Rigidity
The ASR K Chassis ($588.99 net) uses angled steering column uprights and a low floor-level base frame that mimics real karting ergonomics. Because it is built from North American aluminum profile and heavy steel brackets, it handles direct drive wheelbases without the steering flex common on thin tubular kart frames.
