How It Started: Karting With My Son Led to a New Chapter

I started karting with my son and quickly realized I loved coaching and helping him with the kart. That simple shift—from parent to pit crew, from spectator to coach—changed everything. We were driving down from Las Vegas to Spring Mountain Motorports Resort - Karting Complex in Pahrump, Nevada every weekend. What began as a way to spend time together turned into something neither of us expected.

Those early sessions at the track weren't just about lap times. They were about showing up, tuning the kart, adjusting the seat, and watching him grow. I loved it. So did my spouse. We started talking about what it would look like to build something bigger—a place where families from Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, and the rest of the valley could get the same experience we had. Karting lessons for kids. Real coaching. A path that doesn't assume every parent wants to become a mechanic.

St.Cyr Racing Academy exists because of that journey. It's for parents who want to be part of the sport with their kids, not just on the sidelines. If you're in Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, or anywhere in the valley and you're curious about youth karting, junior racing, or karting lessons for kids—we'd love to meet you at Spring Mountain Motorports Resort - Karting Complex in Pahrump. It's a straightforward drive, and the track is worth every mile.
