Rookie Kart

The Rookie Kart is a downsized version of the single-seater.   Durable and fun, it is meant for riders that cannot meet the height requirement of the single-seater.   The Rookie is geared to run at speeds of 10-12 mph.   All Rookie riders must be able to reach the petals while properly sitting against the seat back.  A minimum of 48” is required.
