Dear Members,
I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy.
There is no question, we are living an experience unlike anything we have been through in our lifetimes.
As you all know our current situation with COVID-19 is continuing to worsen in our country. I hope everyone does continue to follow the CDC guidelines given by local, state and national authorities to slow the spread and soon be on our way to fully recover from this national disaster. Always remember, you are our number one priority. The most important thing to our club is our members. We all as a group must do our part.
A few recommendations from the karting side of things to make best use of our spare time:
- Clean and organize trailer, tool and parts box.
- Check racing gear.
- Kart maintenance: check alignment, bearings, axles, chain drive, engine rebuilt or tune up, gear box parts and oil, change engine oil if needed, carbs, plug, brakes, tires, wheels, valve stem, radiator fluids
- Mychron: learn it, set it up or repair it
- Lead weights (touch em up with some white paint)
- Do some deep cleaning, adjust all bolts and nuts
- And the most important item: YOU-stay in good physical and mental shape. Have a good physical conditioning routine in place. Have fun and start today.
We will to do our best to continue to update everyone via email, website and social media. Stay alert, be calm and pray for all our families, friends, government, individuals affected by COVID-19, the heroes on the front lines and everyone that is keeping our country resources efficiently running. Keep them all in your daily prayers. Let’s enjoy our family time. Stay home and stay strong.
Happy Easter week to y’all! God bless you. Hope to see you at the track soon.

Free demo rides have been cancelled till further notice due to the COVID-19 virus.
Hello Members,
I would like to start by saying thank you to each and every one of you. Give yourselves a round of applause, because Spring 1 Race was safe and successful with an attendance of 256 combined racers and spectators. Thank you to all the volunteers, officials, racers and racers' families for helping and attending the race.
So far all projects on hand are been worked on and completed as time and weather permits. Our first work day of 2020 was the most attended in the history of NTK. I personally thank you. Let’s do it again soon. We still have items on the table which will be addressed and completed as time permits.
As all of you are aware, we are in the midst of an unfortunate and difficult situation with the covid-19 virus. We as responsible individuals need to take the necessary precautions and measurements on and off the premises to limit and reduce the spread of the disease. In the USA and most places around the world the local, state and nationwide authorities are recommending to stay home and employ “social distancing” to reduce the exposure and spreading of the virus.
We the officers at NTK are taking the necessary precautions as recommended by authorities to prevent further spreading. We are canceling SPRING 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6 and further evaluating upcoming races as updates and information is gathered from our local, state and federal authorities. As of a few hrs ago the CDC recommends to limit the gathering of individuals to 10 or less.
We recommend for each and every one of you to follow the guidelines to prevent the spread of the disease.
The officers of NTK will diligently continue to keep the membership informed of any updates pertinent to our North Texas Karters club and track.
Members, ultimately each and every one of you is responsible for taking the necessary precautions to prevent any further spreading of the virus among yourselves and the public. Social distancing is recommended per the CDC.
Please stay alert and follow healthy guidelines during this difficult time. The track is open for practice at your own risk until further notice. Hope we can get back to the black top racing soon enough.
Our prayers and thoughts for those affected by the virus.

Anyone have any leads on these storage container contents? If we can’t locate the owner, the container will be emptied and rented out.
To all members,
Below is the updated pit spot assignments.
Do not park on the reserved spots until the day of the race, do not drop off your trailer prior to the race, not a day or week before. These are race day parking only.
