Hello from Central Texas

Howdy,
I started with sidewalk cars and quarter midgets in the early 50's, moved up to go-karts as the 60's began. (photo attached). Currently, I am a grandfather running a quarter midget team for my grandkids. Thanks for letting me join the group here.

Welcome! Sounds like you might have the right amount of insanity to fit in around here!

Cool to have a veteran racer, that picture really shows how much our yard karts are based off classic racing karts. Welcome!

Welcome to the club. I too am from central Texas. Just starting to get to know Karting for my granddaughter's sake. Having a hard time finding places to Kart. Also trying to get my kart registered as a Low Speed Vehicle and or Off Highway Vehicle. I understand that Eisenhower state park is the only one that allows OHV permit karts. What do you suggest other than finding someone who has a ranch.

There are a couple of backyard dirt tracks if you're into oval racing, in the area. There is also a rally course out by Coupland that might allow you to run on their dirt course. As far as trails, I don't know of any public areas.
