72.7% Of Our Drivers Reach The Podium Within 90 Days

Let me ask you something...

Have you ever watched "natural talents" zoom past you in cheaper karts?

Or maybe spent thousands on new equipment only to find yourself...

*Still fighting for the same positions

*Still seconds off the pace

*And still wondering what you're doing wrong

You're not alone…

In fact, every successful kart racer in our Academy started exactly where you are now.

Frustrated.

Overwhelmed.

Wondering if they will ever get to the podium.

Until they discovered what actually makes the difference between podium finishers and everyone else...

A Race-Winning Blueprint That Actually Works

As I mentioned, 72.7% of our racers reach the podium within their first 90 days.

Not because they're more talented.

Not because they bought better equipment.

But because they learned the exact techniques and strategies that have been tested and proven on real tracks, in real races, with real results.

Think about that...

While other drivers:

• Waste thousands on parts they don't need

• Spend years learning through costly mistakes

• Chase random tips that lead nowhere


Our Academy members get instant access to every speed secret in our vault like:


• The fatal cornering mistake that's costing you 2-3 positions every race (yet 95% of drivers keep doing it)


• Why experienced drivers NEVER use the racing line in wet conditions (plus alternative strategies that actually work)


• How this weird "thumb placement trick" helps elite drivers maintain perfect control without burning out their arms


• The advanced race craft techniques used by champions (including the defensive line choice that frustrates faster karts)


• The "Decision Tree Method" that solves ANY handling problem in 3 minutes or less..


• And so much more...

This is just 0.5% of what's inside the Ultimate Kart Academy.

Your Coaching Team

Derek Jones

Head Coach / Karting Yoda / Doctor Power

Derek’s been around long enough to remember when sidepods weren’t used for punting. With decades of karting experience, including racing at the national level, wrenching for factory teams, and coaching some of Australia’s top talent — he’s basically a walking race engineer with a Aussie accent.


He’s the guy who can watch your on-board once and instantly tell you what you’re doing wrong, how to fix it, and what tyre pressures you should’ve run — all before his double espresso gets cold.


Known for:

Hitting machine guns

Uncanny kart setup instincts

Scary-good knowledge of Ipswich weather

And no time for excuses, only improvement

Whether you’re a cadet or a seasoned TAG driver, Derek will push you to get better — and you’ll thank him for it once you finally nail that apex.

Mika LeMasurier

Coach / Karting Weapon / Resident Fast Kid

Mika might only be 17, but don’t let that fool you — he’s been racing longer than most people keep a gym membership. With 8+ years of seat time, Mika is basically part of the kart at this point.


In 2024, he went full “main character energy” and won the KA3 Senior National Title at the AKC, officially making him THE fastest driver in the country.

A few months later, he flew the Aussie flag at the FIA World Championships in the UK, battling the world’s best at PFI and proving he’s more than just a local hero with a nice helmet.


Known For:

Absurd corner speed

Braking later than Danny Ricciardo

A relaxed coaching style that some how makes you go faster

Overtaking the entire field in 4 laps

Never skipping new tyre runs

Whether he’s coaching trackside or reviewing GoPro footage with you in the tent, Mika brings elite-level experience with zero ego — unless you beat his time, then it’s game on.

Sam Dicker

Coach / KZ2 Weapon / Three-Time AKC Champion (’23, ’24, ’25)

West Aussie and serial front-runner, Sam just sealed a three-peat in Australia’s premier shifter class, adding the 2025 KZ2 crown to his 2023 and 2024 titles. He’s the guy who turns standing starts, six-speed timing, and brake modulation into simple cues you can copy the same session. 

He’s raced internationally too, including Pro Shifter at the SKUSA SuperNationals, bringing that level of pace and discipline back to local grids.


Known for:

Hole-shot merchant: P7-P3 by Turn 1.

Shifts so clean the chain says "cheers."

Debriefs in five words: "Do this." You're faster.

Setup fixes that kill hop, not hope.

Divebombs sent from another postcode.

When he's not at the track, you'll probably find him 4WDing into spots your phone won't load.

Zac King

Coach / Strategy Wizard / “The Content Guy”

Zac’s the guy who somehow manages to run a business, film viral race content, coach karting drivers, and still make it home for bedtime stories.

With over 2 years of competitive racing, a Ipswich club championship under his belt, and hundreds of hours behind the wheel, Zac knows what it takes to go from “I’m just here for fun” to “I want to win my next race.”


Known for:

Coaching that actually makes sense (no “just drive faster” here)

Making high-level driving feel accessible

Running way too many camera angles on your go kart

And being the hype man every young driver wishes they had

Whether you’re looking to take tenths off your lap time or just understand why your kart won’t turn, Zac’s your guy.
