Whether you’re looking for gift inspiration for hobbyist go-karters or professional kart drivers, here are 5 gift ideas that you should consider.
1. Karting Experience Days
Karting experience days are fun for all levels of experience. Consider a go-karting trip out with family and friends or opt for a more professional experience on a more competitive track.

Regardless of which option you opt for, karting experience days are sure to provide hours of fun for any karting enthusiast.
2. Karting Simulators & Games
For days when you can’t make it to a track, racing simulators and games are the ideal gift for karting enthusiasts, allowing them to enjoy the hobby and practice racing techniques off the track. From fun kart racing games like Mario Kart, to more realistic games like KartKraft, racing games allow drivers to enjoy their hobby from the comfort of their own home.
If you’ve got a higher budget, you could consider a full karting simulator setup with interactive foot pedals and steering wheels. These setups allow karters to practice on a realistic setup, replicating real-world dynamics for an immersive training tool that’s as fun as it is educational.
3. MyChron Steering Wheel
A popular amongst go-kart drivers, the MyChron steering wheel is the ideal gift for beginner and professional karters. Its sleek, professional design provides drivers with maximum grip and control whilst on the track for added safety and usability. Karters can even add additional Aim devices, like the MyChron lap timer, directly to the wheel for a more competitive setup.
4. MyChron Lap Timer
Following on from the previous gift idea, consider investing in a MyChron lap timer to provide drivers with a competitive edge and performance improvements based on real data. Available in 2 options: MyChron 5S and MyChron 5S 2T, Aim kart lap timers are compatible with the MyChron steering wheel to allow drivers to monitor their kart and driving performance.
Not only do Aim lap timers provide drivers with information such as their best lap time, current lap timer and theoretical lap time using GPS tracking for pinpoint accuracy, but they also serve as added safety by allowing drivers to monitor engine temperatures.
Overall, the MyChron lap timer is a must-have for karters who are serious about improving their karting performance.
