Last year the ground shook as karters from all over the Southeast stormed the Cabarrus Arena in Concord, North Carolina for the first Kart Show of its kind. This year The Kart Show will be even bigger than before.

From the moment the gates open karters and fans alike will see the Industry's top kart manufactures, door prizes, kart give way, seminars, live concert, Fireworks Show, and Kart Racing.

The focus is to present the sport of karting to tomorrow's new drivers. This year we are proud to have several  youth programs in place. Boy Scout, Girl Scout  and Church Youth programs just to name a few.

These youth groups are invited to attend the show free of charge. Giving youth from all over the chance to see first hand the excitement of karting.

It’s simple, Test drive a kart and help to raise much need fund to help find a cure for Autism. So grab your best friend and head to the test track for a little test drive.

Fan will be able to ride both day of the show. Track will open in the gold hall at 10 AM and will stay open each day until 4 PM.

"On Friday night, we will host Charlotte's own classic rock band, The Lawyers Road Band.

On Saturday night, we will host two acts. First, straight from Nashville, the brand new ICM New Artist of the year Laura Dodd. Also, we will have a tribute to Willie Nelson from Mr. Bob Collins. Bob has that look and voice of Wille and will bring an amazing show."

18 classes will compete in 2 days of competition. Each class will qualify for the main event through heat races and consolation races. The top 20 drivers from each class will do battle under the arena light in front of 5000 family and fans.

If you are good, really good, come test your skills against the best concert karters in the southeast at  “Kart Knights”. It's not just a race, but an event that drivers have been planning for all year.
