The IPKC stands as a national kart championship that warmly embraces drivers from the privateer sector, offering them a taste of a complete national championship experience while preserving the community spirit and enjoyment characteristic of a club event.
In consideration of the ever-increasing costs associated with motorsport, the IPKC actively strives to minimize expenses. This is achieved through measures such as regulating tire use, implementing budget-friendly entry fees, and avoiding the imposition of exorbitant costs on drivers for necessary equipment and parts, which is a common practice in other championships.
Our vision for an event transcends the realm of racing—it's a weekend getaway infused with the thrill of competition. We are dedicated to fostering a friendly and enjoyable environment at our events, maintaining a welcoming atmosphere throughout. Whether it's paddock members showcasing their singing talents in karaoke or engaging in a simple game of football, we encourage active participation.
At the core of the championship is you: THE DRIVERS! Witnessing participants walk away with smiles on their faces is our greatest joy, as we remain committed to ensuring that the championship experience is both rewarding and memorable for all involved.
