If you are interested in building an existing design then there are pre-fabricated kart chassis available that only require the purchase of the attached components and assembly. If you are interested in building a new and better kart then scratch building will be the way to go. Sprint, Oval, Superkart Build Your Own Kart Knowledge Level Kart racing is run everywhere in the world, but is especially popular in Europe. Racing is generally held on purpose-built kart tracks that are around 1 km (0.6 miles) or on short oval tracks. The flex in the tube frame and tires absorbs the bumps encountered and the kart uses a special front-end geometry that causes the inside rear wheel to lift slightly when turning corners (So there is no need for the rear wheels to turn at different speeds) There is usually no suspension and no differential on a kart because the design bypasses the need for these.

Bodywork also varies from minimal bumpers on sprint karts to full cover bodywork on ovals or superkarts.

Most karts use a centrifugal clutch, although some have gearboxes (Called Shifter karts). The kart has a tube frame, to which is mounted a 1-piece axle, hubs, wheels/tires, steering, seat, fuel tank, engine, drive sprocket, and brake. It is the launch pad for almost any child interested in racing (along with ΒΌ midget for the dirt trackers and junior dragster for the drag racers). It is the simplest and lowest cost form of road and oval racing available but even so, the racing kart can out-compete many race cars costing 5 to 10 times as much. Karting began with the first kart designed by Art Ingels in 1956 and has since technically evolved its basic racing technology.
