RaceFacer – the story behind
Nowadays RaceFacer is a global player in the karting industry with over 100 clients in more than 32 countries and more than 1,5 million users in our karting social network. And all this is achieved in just three years.
The beginning
Like every successful company, RaceFacer started as a real life problem that our founder Ivaylo Tzonev had in his work. During his time as owner and manager of karting tracks in Bulgaria he saw that the existing solutions on the market can’t fit the needs of his business. With the continued advancement of technology, he saw an increasing interest for new karting experiences in his customers. As a response, he came up with the idea to create the First Social Network for karting tracks and drivers– RaceFacer.com. After that, RaceFacer Timing & Track management software was developed – a fully functional, modern and cost effective solution for go-kart tracks of any size. The rest is a history full of enthusiasm, hard work and sleepless nights.
In the last years we are constantly adding new features, based on the valuable ideas and experience of track owners and managers from all over the world.
