Move LR in to tighten on entrance.

Right rear controls exit of corner.

Move RR out to loosen kart on exit.

Move RR in to tighten on exit.

Rollout (rear stagger) controls the whole corner.

Too much will make the kart loose.

Not enough will make it tight.

Proper set-up will make your kart free enough to drive through the corner, without losing forward bite. Very seldom will someone hit the perfect set-up. It is about who can make the best compromise at each corner of the kart and track... Good luck!!!
