Martin Hines, Lennart Bohlin, Wade Nelson, Perry Grandstra, Tim Parrot and Trevor Roberts are but to name a few Champions of the early era.

“Karting is part of our DNA, we live for the thrill this sport gives to us all. We are proud to launch our latest  range of Superkarts online, our Marketplace – which will grow with regular changing products relating to our brand – and our Dunlop Kartsport Tyre Shop. Keep a lookout for us on social media as well. I hope you enjoy exploring our new website.”

Striving for perfection

The natural progress into Chassis development coupled with good reliable engine performance brought new names into our world. Certainly credits must go to the help and effort of the drivers in more modern times that enjoyed success along the way.

John Riley was instrumental in the early development of our Maverick Superkart.  Success followed with Champions around the World. John Riley, Gavin Bennett, Graham Barker, Emanuel Vinuales and Jordie Ford who we salute for their title successes.

Performance & quality

The old saying of success breeds success still rings true with the performances of the top drivers choosing the new Div 1 Maverick 3. Names like; Elkmann, Morley, Jost (the 1, 2, 3 in Europe), Pegoraro, Jamieson, Harpas, Ford & Urban (Australia and NZ).

The mono history is equally well bred with great performances in Europe and the UK by drivers; Gavin Bennett, Jordie Ford, Jack Layton, Sam Moss, Gareth James, Lee Plain and many more.

As a brand we continue to develop product within our own factory where we have control over our destiny. This has always enabled us to maintain the quality and performance of the product along with ensuring a well stocked parts department.
