Answer!! The Road America Kart Racing School is the perfect place to start your journey into real racing

The Road America Kart Racing School aims to take you on the journey from your first step in racing to the top step of the podium. Aimed towards the beginner, the Road America Kart Racing School is a half day experience covering the basics of kart racing and beyond.

Our half day experience will touch on safe practices, competitive driving lines and braking exercises to shorten your learning curve as you embark on your racing career. Karting hopefuls from 8 years old up will be paired with a Briggs and Stratten powered racing kart prepared by Franklin Motorsports Inc to hone their skills. An experienced staff will take you on your first foray into real racing karts at one of the country’s top facilities.

Your session will begin in a group from 7-10 participants. Upon arrival participants will have a final fitting into their kart for the session. Following a track walk and coaching overview participants will undergo a few skill exercises to become familiar with their equipment and their limits. On-track sessions will begin with lead follow and debrief discussions. Participants will be split into 2 groups based on initial performance and will work for the remainder of the session in a group setting of 4-6 drivers.

With a combination of on-track sessions and post session analysis, participants will begin improving their driving lines and strategies that will become their foundation in competitive motorsports. Our staff will work to personalize each session to best accommodate each driver’s needs. We invite you to join us at the Road America Kart Racing School to take the first steps towards racing success.
