Remote Kart Control
The dangerous problem of out-of-control drivers on your (indoor) go-kart track can now be a thing of the past. With the help of one or more of our FKP Kart Control Systems, it is possible to reduce the speed of the kart by simply pressing a button on the remote control. The system consists of the remote control unit and shutdown transponders, which are mounted on every kart.
This is the 2nd generation 2nd generation Remote Kart and Track Control system. This robust 2 way communication system has been developed with the practical feedback in mind we received from happy customers over the years.
Our Xtra.Remote Kart and Track Control system is a complete new design which uses the latest technology and is not just a ‘modification’ of our classic system. This has resulted in a very easy to use and innovative product which meets the necessary requirements for a rental karting track operator.

With the portable and rechargeable Xtra.Remote Control track operators have full control over their
karts and racing lights. Dedicated buttons on the keyboard allow for quick speed adjustments to preset
levels for individuals, groups or all karts together. The speed limit can be adjusted easily with step-up
and down buttons. The karts engines may be turned off completely. Penalties can be given to out of
control drivers. This slows their karts down for some time after which the speed limitation is taken away
automatically.
Especially for the mechanics the Xtra.Remote Control shows the total engine running time and real time
tachometer on the graphical display. The modernly styled Xtra.Remote Control can be hooked up to a
PC so computer programs can control and monitor all activity on the track. New software versions can be simply
uploaded without the need to return the unit to the factory.
