Over the last decade, racing has become one of the most popular sports in the United States.  Your kids can learn to drive karts as young as 8 years old.

It starts with a class where they learn about safety issues and good driving habits. Then it’s straight to the carts with speeds of up to 25 miles an hour and are considered quite safe. These carts cannot be flipped over.  They’ve actually tried at the race track.  The center of gravity is so low, the carts are only 1 inch off the ground, which makes them next to impossible to flip.

Pursue it as a sport or do it just for fun, learning to drive carts definitely builds good driving skills kids will use later in life.  Especially the development of good hand/eye coordination. This is also a great family activity.  All the members of your family can enjoy this fun sport together.  There are carts for all levels.
