go-karting
Small-track motor sport
Go-karting is the activity of racing or driving go-karts—small, low-slung vehicles with simple frames and small engines.
It ranges from casual recreation at amusement tracks to competitive amateur motorsport: We took the kids go-karting for his birthday.
Many professional racing drivers started in go-karting as children.
