Complete Infrared Tire Temperature Kit for MyChron 5 / 6

Revolutionize how you manage rubber with the infrared tire temperature kit, featuring four precision sensors tailored for MyChron 5 / 6 integration. An expansion box is required but not included, opening doors to pro-grade tire data.

Each sensor beams non-contact readings to your gauge, capturing surface temps across all four wheels during dynamic runs. This data is gold for adjusting camber, pressure, or lines to maximize contact patches and minimize slip.

• Four-sensor array for comprehensive coverage.
• Infrared tech for accurate, lag-free measurements.
• Ideal for sprint, endurance, or wet conditions.
• Transforms guesswork into grip science.

Kart racers deploying this kit (SKU: MC5IRTTSK) often see immediate gains: hotter inner rears signal understeer fixes, while balanced fronts boost corner speed. Post-session graphs reveal wear patterns, guiding alignments that extend tire life and sharpen turn-in. It's a staple for teams chasing series titles, where tire strategy wins races.

Pair with mounting kits for versatile positioning, ensuring sensors dodge debris while tracking heat evolution lap by lap. In variable weather, it flags cool-downs early, preventing cold-tire spins. The kit's OEM pedigree (AIM #X08TTK014120) guarantees reliability, syncing flawlessly with MC5's and MC6's interface for overlaid analytics—temps versus speeds, for instance. This holistic view refines driving techniques, like trail braking to even out loads.

For the ambitious, expand to predictive modeling: use historical data to preempt degradation, arriving at tracks with pre-set configs. No more reactive changes; you're proactive, organized, and faster. This investment pays dividends in podiums, turning temperature intel into tangible track dominance. Dive into the details—each sensor's beam angle optimizes for wheel arcs, capturing peaks without interference. In karting's tire wars, this kit arms you to conquer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need any additional hardware to make this kit work with my MyChron 5 or 6?

A: Yes. This kit requires an AiM Sports Expansion Box to connect the four infrared sensors to your MyChron dash. The expansion box is not included with this kit and must be purchased separately.

Q: How do I mount the sensors to ensure accurate readings?

A: We highly recommend using the dedicated mounting kit to position the sensors correctly. Proper mounting ensures the sensors are angled to capture the tire surface temperature without interference from debris or chassis components.

Q: Can I use this kit for both sprint and endurance racing?

A: Absolutely. This kit is designed for all karting disciplines. In endurance racing, it is particularly useful for monitoring tire degradation over long stints, while in sprint racing, it helps you dial in your setup for maximum grip during short, high-intensity runs.

Q: How does this data help me improve my lap times?

A: By analyzing the temperature distribution across the tire surface, you can make informed adjustments to your camber, tire pressure, and driving style. For example, identifying hotter inner rears can help you correct understeer, leading to better corner speed and more consistent performance.
