A racing sanctioning body has been established to promote racing in North America called NAPRA, the North American Pocket Bike Racing Association. Go-kart tracks offer a road racecourse that is perfectly scaled to Pocket Bikes You can give your local go-kart track a call or get in touch with NAPRA itself to see if any tracks or leagues are offering racing in your area.
Major kart tracks across the country have adopted pocket bike racing, and there are sure to be more as the national interest in pocket grows with every passing day.
Outside of pocket bike competitions, you can ride your pocket bike on private property in enclosed courses.
