I use an old crock pot with cheap motor oil and parafine wax mixed in.  Throw the chain in the pot set on low, clean the kart, goof around a bit then fish the chain out and let air dry.  Make sure you don't grab the chain until it cools. 

Jim Donovan from Max-Torque told me that method. 

Or you can use motorcycle chain lube....whatever you do, do it early in the week.

I do mine every other week.  No you don't have to lube at the trrack.  You can buy wax at Wal-Mart.  Look me up this week...kart number 101.
