Three tight hairpins, a tightening double left, a little snail loop and a short straight: here you win on braking and getting back on the gas, not on engine power.

L'Escargot Technical

Circuit du Dédale · Original layout · 1,256 m · clockwise

La Corniche track from above🏖️ Seaside

La Corniche Mixed

Circuit de la Corniche · Original layout · 1,150 m · clockwise

Right by the water: the straight runs along the beach, then the track climbs the cliff road in tight switchbacks. Short, technical, and every off ends up in the sand.

The 4 kart settings

Rear sprocket (76 to 88 teeth)
More teeth = more pull out of hairpins, but lower top speed. Twisty track: go up on the sprocket.
Rear track width (1340 to 1400 mm)
Narrow = more rear grip but the kart “binds” in corners. Wide = freer, more agile kart.
Tyre pressure (0.50 to 0.80 bar)
High = tyres warm up fast (good in races), but overheat if you slide. Low = more grip once they're warm.
Brake (80 to 120%)
Stronger = you brake later, but if you stamp on the pedal the rear locks up: the kart turns less and slides. Softer = easier to modulate.

FAQ

Is the karting game really free?

Yes, 100% free and no download: it runs in your browser, on desktop and mobile.

Are the tracks real tracks?

The game's tracks are original layouts, designed like real karting tracks: fast, technical or very technical, in the forest, in the desert, by the sea… Real tracks will be added with their operators' permission.

What happens if I hit another kart?

Just like in club racing: if you hit an opponent with your nose, your front fairing gets pushed in and you take a 5-second penalty at the finish. A really big hit, into the tyres or another kart, and your kart blows up: it's back on track 2 seconds later. Cutting a corner on the inside costs you too: lap deleted in time trial, +2 s in a race. Grass slows you down a bit; the sand and gravel traps on the outside of tight corners, a lot more: you crawl back out. Stuck? The marshals put you back on track automatically.

How do I drive in the rain?

Just like the real thing: the rubber laid down on the dry racing line is super slippery, so you have to find grip off it, often on the outside (the “wet line”). Brake earlier and more gently, and get back on the gas progressively. Wet lap times have their own leaderboard and their own medals on every track.

Is it hard to drive?

No: the kart turns as soon as you press the arrow and slows down as soon as you lift off the throttle. If you come in too fast, it runs wide and slides a little, without spinning out. Lap time is won under braking, on the racing line and with your setup (rear sprocket, track width, tyre pressure — tyres warm up lap after lap).

Can I play with a wheel?

Yes: plug in your wheel/pedals, open the garage options and run the calibration (20 seconds). Regular gamepads are recognized right away.

How do I challenge my friends?

Create your account: your crew is ready, with your invite link (WhatsApp, SMS, copy). Your friends click, see your lap times to beat on every track and join your leaderboard. You also get a chat to trash-talk each other. You can also create public or private groups (club, coworkers, team) from the Groups page.
