The African Motorsport Pathway
Develop → Connect → Compete → Progress
01
Develop
Strengthening National Sporting Authorities and national karting programmes — training drivers, mechanics, officials and marshals.
02
Connect
Africa's digital motorsport infrastructure through the Online Karting League — year-round racing across the continent.
03
Compete
The Karting Africa Championship — the highest level of karting on the continent, built by Africa, for Africa.
04
Progress
Formula Car — the next step on the ladder, so talent can go all the way without leaving the continent.
Online Karting
Race from anywhere on the continent.
Our online racing partner is the Online Karting League — a sim karting community built to bridge the gap between sim karting and real-time karting, so African drivers can compete year-round before they ever reach a track.
Karting Africa Cup
The Online Karting League runs a Karting Africa Cup online — race the continent's circuit from home and register for one-off meetings.
Division League
Structured league racing in three classes: juniors (12 and below), seniors (13 and above) and masters (30 and above), on closed, equal karts.
Authentic sim
Powered by the Kart Racing Pro engine with laser-scanned tracks, built by Against All Odds eSports and accredited by Motorsport South Africa.
