Leaning to the outside works in karts, because they have a live rear axle. During cornering, the inside wheel rotates just as fast as the outside wheel. By leaning to the outside, you decrease the pressure on the inside wheel, allowing it to spin more, resulting in better agility.
In opposite to leaning to the inside, leaning to the outside also prevents your helmet from becoming a fishbowl
Oh man...now when you said it, ofcourse! Gladly I have done right actions by wrong assumptions. Funny. That's totally the reason why karts turn very tailhappy if you lean to inside on tight corners. It just feels like that grip is worse if weight is on four tyres equally.
