Velios Motorsport Karting
Our history goes back to 1990, when the 9 years old then Dimitris Velios started karting and 4 years later competed for first time in the Greek Kart Championship. As a result of his attempt, Dimitris won the title of the Greek Karting Champion in 1997, as long as he won a lot of victories in races and podiums in the golden era of the Greek Karting, showing strong ethos and modesty during his racing years.
Dimitris with his long experience and cooperation with the best manufacturers of karting, he created Velios Motorsport in order to offer his experience and knowledge in the new drivers who want to get into the motorsport world.
Velios Motorsport’s goal is binary. From the one side, we want to show off young drivers who want to create their own path in karting, by competing in national and international level. From the other side we want to be a pillar of promoting safe driving in Greece and worldwide.
Our Academy
What is a Kart Academy and how such an Academy can help a kid?
These are the two main questions parents ask Velios Motorsport that we come across daily. Absolutely reasonable questions.
Our Academy helps young drivers from the age of 4 and above to get into the motorsport world, which is a world of safe speeding, into the track having always in the top of our priorities the safety matters that we first teach at theoretical level.
Our main goal is to instill to all our members the love for sport and karting. In Velios Motorsport a young driver will learn how to compete and how to “fight” in the track with discipline.
Moreover every member of our Academy will race in Greece and abroad, wherever his or hers dream want to travel!
Kart’s nature does not permit mistakes and as a consequence we always take care of every detail that can make the difference of every young driver. We emphasize to persistence, patience and trust to our self. In the meantime, it is very important that our Academy’s members are constantly in contact with other kids from other Academies and they socialize themselves and they grow up in the context of fair play.
Racing Team
The drivers in our racing team are nurtured in the principles of competitiveness and they are training in order to race in Greece and abroad.
Velios Motorsport has two motorsport support trucks for the transportation and service of the karts at the track including the whole equipment. We usually make our track days and trainings in many tracks in Greece. In our racing team Dimitris transfers his long experience!
Is Karting an expensive sport?
That’s a common question. It is not so expensive that maybe someone thinks it is. Of course the cost for a karting career, even in championship level, it is not so expensive and it depends on your needs. Of course you can ask us for any information you want about the cost.
