What age should you start karting?
Kart racing can start as young as five years old. At this age, children are riding what are unsurprisingly known as “Kid Karts.” These babies usually pack a 50cc, two-stroke engine that's not too different from what you'd find on a weed wacker.
When should I start go karting?
Kids can practice karting from 6-7 years of age with Entry Level classes and competitive karting at 8. The junior sector ranges from 8 to 15 years, after that, we have Senior categories for all ages. The approach is very different when a kid is starting with karting compared to an adult.22 may 2020
