slipstreaming and tucking

Dear awesome people,

I was wondering does slipstreaming "exist" in karts. I ask this because, during my practice today, I tried slipstreaming various karts to no avail. I know my straight line speed is up to par, because I compared my top speed displayed on my onboard computer with various other drivers present at the track that day. Also I see various karters on youtube "tucking" down the straights, I tried this out but I didn't notice any top speed difference, could it be that the back straight on my local track just isn't long enough? As usual ur advice is very much appreciated.
