Hi and welcome to karting!
What you tend to find is that if you set it up to run on the stand (i.e. no load), it isn't anywhere near rich enough to run under load. Start with some base settings (doing a search on here will find you some) but obviously, set them a bit on the rich side, get your motor running on the track and set it up from there.
Again, if you do a search, Itpro did a superb document on how to set a carb up properly and I know he says you don't need base settings but they have always worked for us.
Hope this helps
