Be a Racer for a Day

Feel the rush of friendly competition. 
No experience? No problem.
Just show up and race!

Karting is the ultimate entry point to motorsports – where fun meets ambition, and every lap feels as intense as lining up on the pole position at a Grand Prix.

Whether you're a curious beginner, a passionate weekend racer, or bringing the whole family for a day of excitement – hop into a rental go-kart and the thrill will keep you coming back for more. Many tracks offer rental karts, so you don't need your own equipment to get started.

I started racing go-karts, and I love karts. It’s the most breathtaking sport in the world. More than F1, indeed, I used to like it most.
