Master Your Craft with Expert Coaching
Take your karting to the next level with personalized instruction from Gary Wilson - veteran racer with over 30 years of competitive experience and proven track record of developing champions.
Why Train with Gary?
With over 30 years of hands-on karting experience, Gary brings a lifetime of proven success, expertise, and passion to every driver he works with. His journey began in 1994 as a dedicated father–mechanic, developing a deep understanding of kart preparation, racecraft, and driver development as he supported his son from club racing all the way to major international events, including the Rotax Max World Finals and the Superkart International Invitational in the USA. Since then, Gary has become one of New Zealand’s most respected mentors—coaching and guiding drivers to multiple New Zealand National Titles. He has shaped the sport at the highest level, serving as National Technical Officer, becoming a KartSport Academy Coach, and ultimately leading the academy as Head Coach. Gary has delivered driver-development programmes nationwide, from Explore & Learn courses to the elite Hot Shots Programme, helping drivers sharpen their skills and earn Tier 1 licences. If you want a coach with unmatched experience, technical insight, and a proven track record for developing champions, Gary is the coach who can take you there.
