This site's foundation is strongly rooted from the
GoodTimes Racing Team, by the friendships that were developed
and the love for the sport of Superkart Racing that we all share.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
This website was founded by Rob Forker of
Zanesville, Ohio. He was a 24 year member of Good Times Racing along
with Cary Dice and brother Doug. Rob enjoyed rock climbing, caving,
photography, pc technology, was a private pilot, and also one of the
best kayakers on the rivers. Above all, Rob was a kart racer and
became an accomplished, championship 250 driver. He raced home track
Mid Ohio, Gingerman, Grattan, I.R.P., Putnam Park, Summit Point,
V.I.R., Daytona, Road Atlanta, Road America and Laguna Seca. Rob took
the eternal checkered flag on March 8th, 2014 as a result of cancer.
He will always be missed by all who had the good fortune of knowing him...

250 Superkarts have been likened to
miniature Formula1 cars, racing on the same famous long circuit tracks around the world
that F/1 and IndyCars do, at speeds in excess of 160mph and are, without doubt, the F/1 of
the kart racing world. Being fitted with 6-speed 250cc GP motorcycle engines, 4-wheel disc
brakes, full bodywork with rear wing, these karts have come a long way from Art Ingels'
first "go-kart" and hold outright lap records at many tracks around the world.
As with Formula1 or IndyCars, this is
not a beginner's class. Most drivers have started out in Sprint karts, moving to 125
Shifters and then to the 250 Superkart class; or have gained their experience racing bikes
or cars and switch to Superkarts. Minimum age for drivers is 18 with at least two years of
prior shifter kart or comprable experience.
U.S. Superkarts, LLC, is the
organization that promotes the new 250 Superkart pro series in the U.S. and is promoting
the United States Superkart Championship (USSC) consisting of an eastern and western
division with a final race to crown the U.S. Champion.
