Background Karts are low. Karts are expensive. 1-2 in. Karts are expensive. $6000+ Karts must be transported and serviceable. Transport vehicle to pit to tack and back. Kart-Cart is the answer! Up – Down – All Around

Keep in Mind Kart weighs in at ~ 200 lbs. Current stand requires two people. Convenient work height. Up – Down – Around. Rough terrain. Stability. Stow and go. Cost. Easy as 1 – 2 – 3. Reliable, reliable, reliable.

What’s on the market? Expensive ($600+) Bulky Flimsy Difficult to transport
