FIND YOUR
CLASS.
19 race classes spanning ages 5 to 35+. Tell us how old the driver is and how much they weigh, we'll show every class they're eligible for and what comes next.
Adjust to your race-ready kart and fuel weight. The starting 165 lb value is only an example, not a specification for every class. Rental ballast uses driver weight alone.

Matching Classes
Sorted by minimum weight. Lighter classes are typically easier to start in.
Read The Comparison, Then Check The Scale
The explorer compares eligible classes. Use the guided class finder to narrow an initial choice, then the season calculator to plan the costs. An age match alone does not confirm equipment, weight or entry compliance.
Example: the R&R rental class has a 180-pound driver minimum. A 150-pound driver needs 30 pounds of ballast; the owner-kart weight slider does not enter that calculation. For an owner class, subtract the actual driver and kart total from that class minimum. The adjustable 165-pound starting kart weight is an example, not a specification.
Weigh the actual race-ready kart, driver and required gear under the applicable rules. Ask staff about safe ballast installation and limits. Casual rental driving requires age 12 and 58 inches; R&R rental competition starts at 16. Owner racing and practice have separate membership requirements.
