Do You Feel the Need for Speed?

Posted on February 23, 2012

Racing Dreams premieres tonight on POV, but until then, you can share the tween karting experience in our online strategy game. 

Select your driver, build your kart, then take your racing team through the elite national Division of Karting (DOK) season. Win races, earn sponsors, keep your kart tuned up, and don't forget to make time for homework! Play POV Kart Racer.

Racing Dreams is the chronicle of two boys and a girl who do something extraordinary: They fearlessly race extreme go-karts at speeds of up to 70 miles per hour in pursuit of trophies and, just maybe, careers as NASCAR drivers. And as the youngsters compete on the track, they also navigate the treacherous road from childhood to young adulthood.
