🏁 KARTS ARE BACK AT THE ROCK! 🏁

What an incredible day at Rockingham Speedway! 🔥

50+ karts showed up for our practice day as we prepare for the big Thanksgiving race with the American Karting Tour! 🦃🏎️

It’s been OVER 20 YEARS since karts have hit the track at The Rock — and seeing this kind of turnout for the return was absolutely awesome!

A HUGE THANK YOU to every driver, team, family, and supporter who came out and made this day possible. We couldn’t do it without the karting community showing up and supporting events like this!

And this was only a PRACTICE DAY… 👀

Thanksgiving is going to be HUGE. 🔥

THE ROCK IS BACK! 🏁
