Kart is a transliteration of English KARTING, meaning micro-sports cars. Karting began to appear in Eastern Europe in 1940. It was only popularized in Europe and the United States in the late 1950s and developed rapidly. Its structure is extremely simple with a frame, a two-stroke engine and four independent wheels that make up the kart. Because of its easy-to-drive, safe and stimulating features, it quickly swept the world and can be aptly referred to as "karaoke" in motor sports. That means that men, women and children can drive karting regardless of whether they drive. In 1962, the International Automobile Federation Karter Committee was established by the President of the International Automobile Federation Baleste and later renamed the World Karting Federation.

Kart's English name KARTING refers to "a car with or without a car trunk, the wheels independently and permanently contact the ground, the first two wheels of the second two-wheel drive." Go kart is a miniature racing car among many kinds of racing cars. It is small in size and simple in structure. It is the lowest starting sport in motor sports and is the “cradle” for entering Formula One racing cars. It is also called "mini-formula" in Europe. At the earliest time, the kart was a toy that some parents designed for their children to play in the back garden or in a large parking lot. It was originally built with a lawn mower, and the equipment and engine were very simple. Gradually, karting continues to improve and transform in terms of performance and site safety. In addition, the venues available for standard competitions have been completed. Due to its introductory technology and cost requirements are not very high, so quickly develop into an age-appropriate environment. The sporting events, large and small international events around the world have also come into being. The most representative of these events are the "All-Europe Kart Championship" and "Japan World Cup Championship". In terms of safety, because the center of gravity of the karting is very low and it is easy to control, the karting can be regarded as the safest one in motor sports.

Founded in 1940, the International Automobile Federation (FIA) established the World Karting Federation in 1962. The China Association of Motor Sports "FASC" joined the IAF World Karting Federation in 1995 and completed the karting between China and the international community. In order to promote and popularize the karting, strengthen the quality education for young people and cultivate the reserve talents for the Chinese motor sports, in 1998, the National Committee for the Employment of Young Workers and the State Sports General Administration jointly established the “National Youth Karting Sports Committee” as an organization for young people in China. A specialized agency for karting. In 1999, the National Youth Karting Sports Committee will jointly hold the '99 National Juvenile Karting Championships with the China Association of Automobile Sports. This tournament was first held in China.

Karting is a special category of motor sports. It is not only a project of the auto field competition, but also a popular leisure, fitness and entertainment project. Because the kart structure is simple, the light steel frame is used to assemble a 50cc, 80cc, 100cc, 125cc or 250cc petrol engine, assembled into a 4-wheeled single-seat mini-racer, easy to operate, without a body shell, in a specially constructed sports venue On winding roads.

“Karting” is a stimulating and attractive sport. Vehicles equipped with primary engines have a maximum speed of about 100 kilometers per hour. Vehicles equipped with advanced racing engines can reach speeds of over 160 kilometers per hour. At the same time, due to the small size of the vehicle, the floor of the vehicle is only 4 cm away from the road surface. The actual speed felt by the rider is 2 to 3 times higher than the actual speed of the vehicle, which means that the speed of the vehicle is more than 300 kilometers per hour. When driving a turn, it produces lateral acceleration (about 3 to 4 times the acceleration of gravity) as when a Formula 1 car turns, allowing the driver to experience an experience that is not normally experienced.

Driving karts can not only bring physical and visual stimulation and fun to the driver, but also implement skills education for young people, cultivate their spirit of courage and frustration and have the courage to struggle, good psychological quality, and consciously abide by discipline and Laws and regulations, establishing good moral concepts, adapting to the development of society, popularizing the driving technology of automobiles, basic theoretical knowledge of automobiles, and general knowledge of machinery, and improving the hands-on ability.
