Please, I wonder if anyone would have any experience with regulating tire valves. I mean something that would lets out excessive pressure when the tire heats up while racing. Is it something real?

Alex,

They do exist in the auto racing world, but I haven't seen them for karting. They require a hole through the wheel and are adjustable for different pressures.

Alex,
The Sprint Car guys have been using them for years. Checkout Longacre's web sight for more info. There expencive about $200.00 for the complete set, with the tool that sets them. If your that concerend with tires gaining preasure, why not just use nitrogen?
