The AARKC Honda Challenge is scheduled as a support race at each Rotax MAX Challenge round held at Al Ain Raceway. This entry level series is for drivers aged 15+ yrs and has been specifically formulated for individuals who are thinking about getting into kart racing but are not yet 100% committed to the investment required.
Using Al Ain Raceway’s race-prepared Intrepid Optima chassis powered by a 13hp 4-stroke Honda engine, this evenly-matched class provides the perfect platform to discover kart racing without the accompanying expense.
Full equipment is provided as entrants compete in between the pro’s with an opportunity to see how race days work.
