Kid Kart
Kid Kart is a safe, non-competitive introduction to karting for 5 – 11 year olds.
The program allows kids the environment to learn how to operate and control a kart. The racing line is
introduced, and kart control is emphasized.
No wheel-to-wheel racing takes place, but lapping sessions provide the concepts of braking points, lines,
handling, driving with others, etc.
There are 2 classes of kid karters. Kid Kart & Formula Kid Kart ( Formula KK ).
