All Karts are REQUIRED to go through and PASS inspection. We will do our best to help you bring your kart to spec if there is an issue. If you Do Not PASS inspection and do not fix the issue you WILL NOT be allowed to race.

Passing the Safety inspection does not give any right of action against the Track or Associates in the event of a accident or breakage. These are a set of rules for YOUR safety. Racing is a dangerous sport and the track or it’s associates cannot be held responsible. Passing the Safety inspection is merely another view of your kart and in no way states that your kart is safe.

The Track Safety Inspector Reserves the right to deem ANY kart unsafe to race if he/she finds that the kart is not suitable for racing, even if it has passed the safety inspection (Examples include cracked frames, poorly built chassis, poorly working equipment, etc).

Any kart that develops loose body work, etc will be given the opportunity to have it removed from the kart during the race. If it cannot be removed, the kart will be removed from the track for repair for the next race. Bumpers WILL have to be replaced immediately before continuing.

If the damage is too great according to the safety inspector the kart will be removed from the track to be repaired for the next race.

Any kart that must be repaired between races will need to be Re-inspected by the Safety Inspector. It is up to YOU to let a track official know that you need to be re-inspected. If you are not re-inspected you will not be allowed back on the track.
