TONY KART
Italy-based Tony Kart was founded in 1958 and was one of the first companies to follow the “American” style of karting. In 1983, a change in management took place, as well as continued investment in automation that has enabled Tony Kart to take a leap forward in quality and product development. For more information on the complete line of racing karts, see www.tonykart.com.

TARGET DISTRIBUTING
Product distribution is what Target Distributing is known for. They sell only wholesale to dealers who ‘want to make a profit’. Target’s 2004 catalog is fresh off the press and is jam-packed with karting products off all sorts. For more information on their program, contact them at 574-272-0252, today!

MARGAY RACING
Don't let anybody fool you. Winning is everything. Michael Schumacher isn't paid millions to finish second. Richard Petty didn’t score 200 victories just to build his resume and Juan Montoya didn't race at Indy just to impress the babes. At Margay we don't build winning RaceKarts because it's cool (even though it is) or because it's easy (trust us, it's not). We do what we do because when a driver wins on a Margay kart, the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment that we feel is immeasurable. For us, winning is the only thing. For more info on St. Louis-based Margay Racing, call 314-771-4242 or see www.margay.com.

TEAM HURRICANE
Late in 2003, Hurricane Racing and Cameron Motorsports joined forces to become Team Hurricane, Inc. Today, Hurricane offers an unparalleled assortment of high quality products, over 5,000 in all, available in karting today. For more information, see www.hurricanekart.com or call 905-679-2122.

MARANELLO KART
The Maranello Kart Company was started in 1996 near the town of Maranello (from which it takes is name), the heartland of Italian sports car racing. Following three years of learning the ropes involving countless trial-and-error testing of various materials, the firm is now ready to tackle the go-kart market with confidence, meeting all the CIK/FIA standards for the period 1999 and 2002. They don’t pretend to be #1 but they are certainly proud to be right up there with our more illustrious competitors. For more info see their website at www.maranellokart.com.
