KARTING


Meaning of KARTING in English

Driving and racing miniature, skeleton-frame, rear-engine automobiles called karts or GoKarts.

The sport originated in the U.S. in the 1950s after the first kart had been assembled from unwanted lawn-mower parts. It thereafter developed into an international sport in Europe. Speeds of 100 mph (160 kph) are not uncommon.
