Karts: free online go-kart racing game
Small, twitchy go-karts seen from above, mystery boxes with turbos, oil, shields, springs and magnets, and eight drivers on track. Eight tracks, from the park to the volcano, Grand Prix cups of four races, time trial and a new kart every day. Free, no account needed.
How to play
- The kart accelerates by itself. On a phone, press the big left and right buttons to steer and the Brake button to brake. On a computer, use the arrow keys or A and D to steer, S to brake. To drift through a corner, hold the space bar (or Z) while you steer; on a straight, space just slows you down.
- Drive through the “?” boxes to win an item, shown in the big square at the top. Use it with the Use button (on a computer, X or Shift). Turbo: a burst of speed. Oil: leaves a slick behind that spins out whoever drives over it. Shield: protects you for 5 seconds. Spring: jumps over obstacles, slicks and karts. Magnet: pulls in the V coins around you.
- The yellow arrow pads on the ground give you a boost. The V coins scattered around the track count towards your reward at the end. Watch out for cones, barrels and rocks on the track, and brake earlier on the ice, because the kart slides.
- In the Grand Prix you race 4 tracks in a row and score points in each: 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 from 1st to 8th. On the leaderboard that is worth 1000 points per level (50cc, 100cc, 150cc) plus 10 for each cup point. In time trial, the faster your best lap, the more points. The Kart of the day combines position, coins and time.
Where go-karts come from
The modern go-kart was born in 1956 in California. Art Ingels, a race car builder, put together a small steel-tube chassis with a two-stroke lawnmower engine in his garage in Glendale. Soon enthusiasts were gathering with their karts in the Rose Bowl parking lot in Pasadena.
The idea spread quickly: by 1957 a company was already selling karts, and in the following years karting reached Europe and the rest of the world. The first Karting World Championship was held in 1964.
Karting is still the school of many drivers. Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton all started racing karts as children, before reaching the Formula One world championship.
Free game, no betting and no prizes. The tracks, karts and items are made up. Your race is saved on this device.
