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.
Who The Heck Are We?
Hi, I'm Derek Jones.
For over 40 years now, I've been living and breathing karting.
I’m the founder of a karting company called Power Republic where I have:
• Built over 1500 race winning engines
that have dominated on a local and national level.
• Coached drivers from cadets to state and national championships
• Built one of the largest karting communities online
with our YouTube channel
But my real passion?
Turning regular drivers like yourself into consistent winners.
The truth is, you don't need:
• Unlimited practice time
• A massive budget
• Or natural talent
You just need proven training from people who've been in your position and became race-winners.
That's exactly why we created the Ultimate Kart Academy.
But I’d rather let my partner Zac tell you more about it himself...
Hi I’m Zac.
Not long ago I was exactly where you are right now.
Frustrated.
Overwhelmed.
Trying to make progress in karting but not sure how…
I had no idea how to practice effectively.
I couldn't figure out how to get genuinely fast...
And I struggled to fight at the front of the field.
It wasn't until I invested in proper coaching from Derek that everything changed.
He showed me:
*How to practice with purpose
*Which setup changes actually make you faster
*The secrets of building race-winning confidence
*And exactly what to focus on each time I hit the track
Just 4 months later I got my first podium!
And 2 years after that I won my first championship!
That's exactly why I'm so passionate about the
Ultimate Kart Academy.
We're giving drivers what I desperately needed when I started...
Step-by-step training modules on
techniques and strategies that actually make you win.
And the results speak for themselves:

* A rookie looking to get up to speed fast
