2026 RAAT Kart of Championship Thailand Round 1-2

National and regional karting classes compete at Bira Kart over a two-day weekend of sprint races and qualifying sessions. The event is organised under the Royal Automobile Association of Thailand (RAAT) and attracts Rotax, ROK and other regional series.

Races and supporting paddock activity run across 2–3 May 2026 at the Bira Karting Circuit in the Bira complex near Pattaya, Chonburi, which hosts national and international kart events.

A compact, competitive karting weekend at Bira Kart with multiple classes on track and a lively paddock of teams and junior drivers.

What makes it worth the trip:

• Close, high-action racing on an international kart circuit with frequent on-track sessions.
• Good spectator access to pit and paddock areas for seeing drivers, mechanics and kart setups up close.
• Weekend timing fits travel from Bangkok or Pattaya for a short motorsport-focused trip.

Best way to experience it:

Arrive early for qualifying to catch driver prep and warm-ups; bring ear protection and a camera with a zoom lens for trackside shots. Walk the paddock between sessions to see different classes and meet teams; local food and basic spectator facilities are available at the Bira complex.

Good to know:

• Organiser and series information is listed by RAAT and by the Bira venue; check official RAAT event pages for final schedules.
