Lightning Karts Adelaide based karting store. Online store ships Australia wide and to New Zealand. Lightning karts started on a small scale.

Lightning karts was established in 1992 but has a racing history dating much further back. Both Mark & Michael were born into racing with their father Dennis racing at the time. Dennis started racing in the 70’s originating with circle track racing at Adelaide International Raceway, Drag Racing and then moving into speedway building one of the first tube chassis super sedans in Australia. Moving into a showroom at Prospect, Michael ran the shop during the day leaving engine work for after hours work at their workshop. As the shop grew it became time for more help. Mark started working at the shop between University lectures and before long started working full time at the shop. The Lightning Karts Race team is very passionate about their racing. This year they will participate at around 46 race meetings between Sprintcar, Bitumen Karts and Dirt Karts. The first weekend in September this year saw Michael Racing dirt karts in Perth, Mark at Willowbank for the Rotax Nationals and Dennis and Jamie racing dirt karts in South Australia. All this racing helps them develop and test any new ideas and keep up with the latest changes around Australia.
