About my-KART - who are we?

Who are we?

my-KART.org, or my-KART is a group of people who have the passion for racing and karting in particular. It organises an amateur karting (used to be known as go-kart) league in the Klang Valley, Malaysia. This karting league is called "Karting Amateurs Racing Team" or K.A.R.T. for short. The emphasis is on safe & fun racing, in a competitive but friendly environment.

A Yahoo! mailing list was established in August 2002 at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/my-kart/to serve as the main communication medium for members. In addition, this website provides an additional platform for communications to the wider public.

Our vision & philosophy

We aim to popularise grassroots motorsports, specifically karting. By popularising karting, we create more awareness & support of motorsports. More motorsports fans will drive increased exposure for motorsports in the country which will in turn attract more sponsors. Attracting sponsors will be the key to talent development and team formations. Thus building the automotive / motorsports industry in the country. Lofty ideals? Perhaps. Nevertheless, the opportunity is here as long as Malaysia is on the major international motorsports calendar.

To do this, my-KART remains close to its origins, particularly for its members and the racing enthusiasts. We focus on the following general principles:

  • affordable & accessible
  • safe & professional
  • fun & exciting competition
  • sustainable & relevant
