Genesee Valley Motorsports Complex

Genesee Valley Motorsports Complex Established in 1959, Genesee Valley Kart Club is one of the longest running asphalt tracks around! GVKC is a family oriented organization. Safety is #1.

Kart racing is not only fun, it is the training for tomorrow’s professional drivers. A very short list of drivers who started in karts includes Emerson Fittipaldi, Scott Pruett, Al Unser Jr., Alain Prost, Lake Speed and Michael Andretti. Kart racing gives you the opportunity to learn about all aspects of racing vehicle dynamics, engine tuning and proper driving techniques. Children begin racing at

age 5 and we have had racers in their 60′s too! Many families help out during the race day as “pit crews” for the karters. You’ll see family members keeping lap times, working on engines, helping the racers suit up before the race and lots of other activities. All drivers are required to wear full face helmets with the latest safety rating, protective clothing, gloves, high top shoes and a neck collar. We race almost every Sunday (weather permitting) and admission is free to the grandstands. Saturdays are open practice. Come out and spend some time with us. We are always happy to help and answer any questions.

Kart racing is not only fun, it is the training for tomorrow’s professional drivers. A very short list of drivers who started in karts includes Emerson Fittipaldi, Scott Pruett, Al Unser Jr., Alain Prost, Lake Speed and Michael Andretti. Kart racing gives you the opportunity to learn about all aspects of racing vehicle dynamics, engine tuning and proper driving techniques. GVKC is a family oriented organization. Children begin racing at age 5 and we have had racers in their 60′s too! Many families help out during the race day as “pit crews” for the karters. You’ll see family members keeping lap times, working on engines, helping the racers suit up before the race and lots of other activities.Karting is one of the least expensive forms of motor sports. Good, competitive used equipment is how most people choose to begin. At GVKC, we race on hard compound tires, which last longer than sticky tires. Depending on class and tire used, you could expect to use 1 to 4 sets of tires per year. Under normal conditions, the weekly maintenance costs are low and many people learn how to make their own repairs. Safety is #1. All karts are inspected each race day to make sure they are race ready. In addition, all drivers are required to wear full face helmets with the latest safety rating, protective clothing, gloves, high top shoes and a neck collar. We race almost every Sunday and admission is free to the grandstands. Come out and spend some time with us. We are always happy to answer your questions and tell you why we like karting. We think you’ll like it too!!
