Anyone who races karts or is interested in karts should take a look at this upcoming simulation called KartSim. It has been in development for over 5 years and has recently begun to ramp up.

KART RACING
Coming soon for the PC, with Xbox360 and PS3 versions in the pipeline, KartSim lets you race both online and offline against up to 30+ drivers on world class kart circuits. Choose a kart, choose a team, recruit other drivers and start racing at speeds of up to 160km/h, 20mm off the ground to earn points to qualify for KartSims Official World Championships; a biannual event with real prizes including kart chassis, engines, tyres and merchandise up for grabs!
REAL KARTS, REAL CIRCUITS, REAL DRIVERS
With the full circuit, kart and driver lists to be announced in the next few weeks, KartSim will feature all the major kart manufacturers and classes along with circuits from The Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe and the UK. Kart Clubs and Manufacturers can contact us here to discuss featuring in KartSim.
THE BEST LOOKING KARTING GAME YET
Built on the Unity engine, KartSim pushes the DirectX 9.0 based engine to its limit with superb photo-realistic visuals. With full day and night cycles, High Dynamic Range (HDR) Lighting and Full Screen Post Processing effects, KartSim sets the benchmark for PC based racing games. Check out our screenshots and videos from the game.
THE MOST ADVANCED TRAINING TOOL FOR KARTERS
Dont be fooled by the AAA graphics; KartSim is the most advanced tool a kart driver can use to train with. Utilising real data and a proprietary physics engine written by the games developer, Zach Griffin, the kart will flex, hop, buck, and jack the inside rear wheel in exactly the same way a real kart does, through the use of a real-time FEM model to simulate the flex of the chassis.
