ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Go-kart

A go-kart is like a small car that is made for driving around a track or a fun place with your friends. It has four wheels and is powered by an engine or a battery, just like a big car.

You sit inside the go-kart, thightly buckled with a special belt to keep you safe. You can use a steering wheel to turn left or right, and pedals to make it go faster or slower.

Go-karts have a small frame or cage around them for protection in case of accidents. You may wear a helmet to keep safe as well.

Most go-karts are simple to drive and do not go very fast - you will not be able to reach the same speeds as a big car. But they are really fun and help you learn how to control a vehicle, just like when riding a bike.

You can find go-karts in many amusement parks, fun centers or even professional racing tracks!
