Grand Prix
The Grand Prix is a competitive go-kart racing series for select Academy graduates (12-15 years of age) who wish to compete in a controlled environment. Six to eight rounds are contested seasonally, with a Driver of the Year and Champion recognized at the season finale. Events are often held in conjunction with the Academy classes.
