REAL RACE KART.
RENTED.

Ever wonder what a real race kart feels like? Rent one. A Tillotson or a Briggs LO206, the actual karts the championship classes race, by the session or lined up in the series itself. No $8,000 kart, no trailer, no garage. Full pro gear provided, and a whole lot faster.

The Step Up
Past The Rental.

One Rung
Higher.

Everybody starts at Arrive & Drive. Some people catch the bug and want the next thing without spending eight grand on a kart. That thing is right here in the middle: rent an actual race kart, keep it for a session or a whole season, and find out how deep this goes.

Where Everyone Starts
Arrive & Drive
CRG Centurion Rental

The on-ramp. A 50+ MPH Italian CRG Centurion, all gear on the house, no experience and no booking required. It is a genuine race kart and a real 8-minute heat. It is also the tamest thing we put you in.

Tillotson · Briggs LO206

The real deal. A Tillotson or a Briggs LO206, the actual karts the championship classes race, rented by the session or lined up in the series itself. Full race suit and gloves included. A whole lot faster, and it feels like it.

The Endgame
Own Your Kart
Your Chassis · Your Engine

The full plunge: your own chassis, your own engine, a spot in the paddock, and a season chasing a championship. Most owners rented a race kart first to find out they were hooked. This is where that road ends up.

$8k+The full commitment
Your own kit + pit setup
Kart Owner Programs →

The jump from step one to step two is the biggest one you will feel. The jump from step two to step three is a checkbook. Most owners rented first.

Two Ways To Drive It

PRACTICE IT. OR RACE IT.

Same kart, two ways to get in it. Turn up for a practice session and just drive, or add the membership and grid up in the championship's own classes. Start with one, graduate to the other whenever you are ready.

The Easy Way In

By The Session

$65Per practice session

Same idea as an Arrive & Drive, one big difference: you are strapped into an actual race kart, not the rental Centurion. Book a Tillotson or an LO206, get the full pro kit, and go find out what a real one feels like. No membership, no series commitment, nothing to buy.

  • Tillotson or Briggs LO206, your pick
  • Full race suit, helmet, neck brace, gloves
  • Practice the same half-mile the series races

The Serious Way In

To Race The Series

$300Per R&R race
+ $60/yr membership · $100 for two drivers

Skip the $8,000 kart and still line up in the championship's own Tillotson and 206 classes. Rent the race kart, add the annual R&R membership, and your finishes count for real season points and trophies against drivers on identical equipment.

  • Grid up in the real Tillotson or 206 classes
  • Full race-day format: qualifying, heat, feature
  • Season points, class trophies, a real championship
  • No kart, no trailer, no garage required

Pick Your Weapon

TWO ENGINES. BOTH FOUR-STROKE.

Both rentals are four-stroke race karts, which means grippy, controllable power you can actually lean on while you learn. One is a spec class built around matched equipment; the other is the most popular engine in American karting. You cannot pick wrong.

Spec Engine · Spec Tire
Tillotson T4
Spec Four-Stroke · Maxxis T4

A spec four-stroke that races on the spec Maxxis T4 tire. Every kart on the grid runs the same engine and the same rubber, so nobody buys their way to the front. The equipment is locked and the driver is the only variable left. Closely matched, physical, and won on craft, not budget.

Briggs LO206
Sealed Four-Stroke · ~9 HP

The Briggs & Stratton LO206: a 200cc air-cooled four-stroke, sealed from the factory with a rev limiter near 6,100 rpm. Sealed means every engine is genuinely identical, so the racing is pure driver skill and the running cost is a fraction of a two-stroke. Introduced in 2009, it is the most popular engine in American club karting.
