go-kart
Low, simple racer
A go-kart is a small, low-to-the-ground vehicle with a simple frame, four wheels, and a small engine—built for racing or recreation.
Go-karts lack the bodywork and safety features of standard cars, putting the driver close to the track surface: We took the kids go-karting for his birthday.
Professional karting serves as a training ground for motorsport careers.
Also spelled go-cart.
