Karting involves learning, training, working diligently, focusing, planning, competing, excelling, achieving and returning full circle to attempt to improve on what you have accomplished.

The About Karting Web site opens doors for every kart racer to learn and be informed about the sport. Consider About Karting as a community for kart racers to visit to exchange information and discover what is new in the karting world.

Every facet of About Karting merits a look, especially the “Kart Racers Forum,” which allows racers to discuss racing – maybe a specific race or a highlight of their budding career – or ask for advice of other kart racers. Imagine being at a circuit and standing among other kart racers talking about your sport and gaining valuable advice and insight. The “Kart Racers Forum” found here at AboutKarting.com will create the feel of camaraderie among kart racers.

Four free downloads are also available in About Karting’s library. The topics include information about the Rotax Max 125 engine, CR125 engine and a gear ratio chart for gearbox karts.
About Karting’s bookshop is similar to the library inasmuch as it includes a handful of valuable karting books that are available for purchase at Amazon.com. These books include information on professional techniques, chassis setup and details on the two-stroke cycle engine.

The About Karting Forum, also titled “The Kart Racers Meeting Place,” features interactive discussion group areas that should gain popularity as the About Karting Web site grows.
The discussion group areas, in which any kart racer or enthusiast can participate in includes a general kart cart chat area, two-stroke engine forum, four-stroke engine forum, kart chassis forum, Superkarts, Shifters and Enduros, and karting news.
You can post your comment in any of these groups and watch how others involved with kart racing experience respond. This is an opportunity to learn from other karting racers that was previously unavailable for your consumption.
The About Karting forum also lists how many users are online so you know when to jump into the discussion, or start one if you are one of the few participants.
The success of the forum depends on you, and we at About Karting believe you will find it valuable.
