^^ GG, youd be surprised how much adjustment there is. Is she on a cadet chassis or a full size chassis - my guess is cadet at 10.

Some chassis have mounts to move the entire pedal box forward. Also you can adjust the steering wheel height. Moving the seat and reclining the seat angle also go a long way.

Find out what chassis you have (who makes the tubes - not the brand) and google seat setup. There are some non obvious tricks.

Also get a small press if your kart club doesnt have one for straightening tie rods. A sniper is nice to have. Get a good quality race tire pressure gauge. Make sure you have a decent kart stand and never transort your karts on the stand unless it is a stacker... we learned this one the hard way arriving at a race with a kart off the stand and a bent chassis. We will be selling much of our kart gear this year (or next).
