Admirations for DTS who finished second and Creatia who were third in the final ranking. They gave everything they got and deserve a big applause for their achievement.

Fantastic organization

Karting Sevilla proved one more time that they are a world-class karting track with amazing people in their team. During the race we were working alongside with them to provide the participants with the best karting experience and were able to see how everything was perfectly organized and managed by Jose Lopez Correa, Karting Sevilla’s Manager and his team.

Karting Sevilla is one of our oldest clients and they have supported us from the beginning with valuable feedback and ideas. Gracias, amigos!

The other heroes from this weekend were on the track but not as drivers. They have wheels and their names are EKR SR3 Briggs & Stratton 420! We want to say that they were truly impressed with the quality of these go-karts. During this very intensive and long race they kept strong and stable all the time. The true winners are EKR Renal Karting for making these amazing go-karts. Respect for you and we are glad that we work together with Ángel Burgueńo Gutiérrez & Antonio Martínez Carrasco and their team!

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.
