6 Tips to win your next Go Kart Race - Arya College Jaipur

 Go-karts are small-size and small-weight vehicles that were developed for racing by the students of top engineering colleges in Jaipur. These are made with materials that are strong and durable. It consists of many parts which include a chassis, engine, steering and braking system, and electronic controls. The chassis is the main part that is responsible for the stability of the vehicle. Chassis is made with the material having greater endurance and rigidity. It was developed in the 1950s in the USA and now getting popular. These are now used in amusement parks as recreational activities.

Many researchers have done work on go-karts and improve their design. This project was intended to design and fabricate a reliable and durable go-kart. It’s primary objective to build a go-kart using local resources and applying different techniques to limit the cost of vehicles. These objectives were achieved by studying different techniques which can be implemented. A reliable design was chosen which can be implemented and can be completed. Parts whose manufacturing easy and cost effective were manufactured in a local workshop while other parts which cannot be manufactured locally and were costly, were purchased. The plan of the project was prepared, and software was used to build design sheets. To achieve the final product, around 5400SR was costed which is very economical.

What Do You Understand By Go-Kart?

Go-kart is a simple self-propelled, lightweight and compact vehicle easy for operation. Due to low ground clearance, this type of vehicles are specifically designed and fabricated for racing by the students of best engineering colleges in Jaipur. Its main parts are the chassis, axle, steering, engine, wheel, bumpers and tyres. As it is one of the racing vehicles, its ground clearance is low due to which no suspension system is placed. Its engine could be either two-stroke or four stroke engine. Chassis in one of the main component of this vehicle as the total weight of the vehicle should be beard by it. Due to this, chassis should have strength and stability.

Go-karting is adventurous and great sporting vehicle for the people who are interested in racing because of its low cost, simple construction and safer way of racing. Its racing track could be indoor or outdoor. Modelling and analysis are performed on Solid works software. The chassis is designed in such a way that it requires less pipes and ability to withstand optimum loads applied on it. They are usually raced on almost any plain tracks with no pits and speed breakers. This is considered as the first vehicle for starting a career in racing field. A driver could easily Vol-6 Issue-4 2020 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 12390 www.ijariie.com 874 prepare for racing through this vehicle, wheel-to-wheel racing for high speed, precision control, impulsive racing skills and spontaneous decision-making skills. These vehicles, now called as “Go-Karts” had grown into a billions dollars industry in most of the developed countries in the world. 

They are made, sold, and used exclusively as recreational racers by the students of private engineering colleges in Jaipur. However these vehicles are not designed for transportation and are considered illegal in most places to drive them on the road. A vehicle frame also known as chassis is the main supporting structure of motor vehicle to which all other components are attached, comparable to the skeleton of a organism. Chassis is a frame made of hollow pipes and different materials are used of various cross-section. It should have high torsional rigidity and high degree of flexibility because the vehicle should be stable and should have high strength. High degree of flexibility will give enough strength to withhold or grub the different load applied on the vehicle as well as its different accessories. While designing the chassis different criteria and factors that should be considered are its safe ride, structural strength due to applied load and ergonomics. Selection of frame material while designing any chassis, strength and light weight are the basic consideration for the students of mechanical engineering colleges in Jaipur. So material used in chassis is one of its important criteria. 

Go-Kart At Arya College 

Considering the above facts and information about Go-Kart technology, Arya College of Engineering and IT organizes First Karting Championship of Rajasthan. It was the most awaited, exciting and thrilling event that was started on 15th March 2018 and will continue till 17th March 2018.

It was the full-fledged thrilling drag race that is sponsored by top brands. The main motive of this event is to give the full off racing environment and adventure of karting to the participants, giving the platform to the engineering students so that they can increase various skills of designing manufacturing and teamwork. At JSKC, students of top engineering colleges in Jaipur can gather and share the experiences of various states of motorsports and growing racing skills. Also, it will provide full of thrilling experience of racing environment so that students could enjoy by showing their racing skills, Team-Spirit, Innovation, Sports man-ship and team coordination. They are usually raced on scaled-down circuits. Registration of the event was done online.

Drag racing is a type of motor racing or drag race in which karts compete, usually two at a time, to cross a set finish line. The race follows a short, straight course from a standing start over a measured distance. Electronic timing has been used to record race results. Apart from this some interesting events are also organized. It is a variant of open-wheel motorsports with small open Four Wheel Vehicle called karts, Go-Karts or gearbox/shifter karts depending on the design. They are usually raced on skilled down circuit. Driving the street by Go-Kart at best BTech colleges in Jaipur is one most thrilling way to experience the racing. After all these activities, there will be special Entertainment night and Complementary site scene in Jaipur so that it can become a bunch of celebration, experience and expertise.

Conclusion

The basic need of Go-kart vehicle is less weight to strength ratio and less clearance. Keeping fabrication in the mind, we tried to make the design optimum and simple with high in strength and stability. Thus chassis has good strength against collisions from the front, rear as well as side. Hence we can conclude that the chassis design is safe and stable. The prior aim of the team was to build a go kart with minimum cost without compromising the safety and performance of the vehicle. The final result is a desired Go Kart design meeting all the above factors.
