About

Texas deserves a karting championship run like a race, not a club social. Season 3 is that championship for 2027.

Real motorsport.
Texas-built.

TKL was founded on a simple brief: professionalism, a fair call, and a grid worth driving to. The championship runs Rotax MAX (DD2 included), Briggs LO206, Tillotson, FZ125 Shifter and Kid Kart.

Professional staff. Accessible entry. Fair officiating. Tight, clean racing — every round, every class.

TKL operates under the Race Rotax rule set. Rounds count toward the RMC Texas championship and the path to the Rotax US Finals. In 2026, US Trophy tickets were awarded at Rounds 1, 2, and 3.

Timing, entries, and classifications run through Alpha Timing.

2025 ran three races: 49, then 60, then 71, a 45% climb. 2026 ran 92, 83, 96, 121, and 110. Round 4 at Speedsportz was the first TKL grid to clear 100, and the finale cleared it again.

RMC Texas

Race Rotax is the rule set. RMC Texas is the championship those rounds feed. In 2026, leaders from TKL’s first three rounds earned a full paid entry to the US Trophy Final at New Castle Motorsports Park, Indiana.

That January, the RMC Winter Trophy at Speedsportz in New Caney drew 116+ pre-entries across 6 classes. It was the first Race Rotax US national event held in Texas, and the largest single Race Rotax US event on that record.
