About PKRA
Phoenix Kart Racing Association (PKRA) is a member owned and operated club and facility established in 1982. Our multiple configuration asphalt track is 3/4th of a mile long and averages 25 feet in width. With 12 turns of various radii and over 500 feet of straight away, it’s a constant challenge for both the novice and expert driver. The track is primarily for those who own their own karts, though a separate entity provides an arrive and drive kart rental service (please contact them directly – see Learn More below for local shops and rental options).
Racing
PKRA organizes club races about every other week, with two seasons of typically 10 races each, with Winter races on Sunday days and Summer races on Saturday nights. Unlike some indoor karting tracks where every session is a “race” and measurement is by time, these are formal races, with racing officials and results determined by finishing order.
Getting Started
Karting is a great sport that allows families and persons of all ages to go racing in a safe environment. PKRA offers a variety of opportunities and Kart classes to suit all ages and experience levels. If you’re new to the sport or have kids that are interested in racing, but have no experience, you can stop by the track anytime or contact us to help you get started. No matter the age, driver size, or budget – there’s a class for everyone in karting.
