The heart of family motorsport

Zenico Racing is a family-led community supporting parents and young kart drivers on their motorsport journey.

How it started

Zenico Racing was born from humble beginnings: two dads and their sons hitting the track for fun. What started small quickly grew into something bigger, a partnership between two families, Zenico Racing and FGKarting, who began working together to learn from their own mistakes and share what they learned with others.

As the families grew closer, so did the idea that karting isn't just about racing. It's about community, support, and making the sport accessible for everyone.

Supporting parents, as parents

Born from the shared dream of two best friends, Zenico Racing began as a personal journey in karting and has grown into a supportive community for families finding their way through motorsport. We offer guidance to parents, resources for young drivers, and a network where families can connect and grow together in the sport.

Our commitment goes beyond the track. We believe in nurturing talent from grassroots level, offering sponsorship opportunities to young drivers and helping teams build their online presence.

That's why we created Banana Sponsorship, an affordable way for drivers to present themselves to potential sponsors.

Meet the team

Our team is made up of parents, racers and motorsport fans who know the highs and lows of karting first-hand. We each bring something different, but we share one goal: to support and inspire the next generation of drivers and their families.
