To anyone in Australian Karting, and even those overseas, REMO RACING is synonymous with excellence, reliability and, most importantly, dedication to the sport. After 20 years in the business owner Remo Luciani together with his wife Sabrina have developed and perfected a brand that people can trust.
Remo, a six-time Australian Karting champion and with over 48 State Championships to his name his pedigree as a racer is not in doubt - he is still winning today at the age of 46 despite an overwhelming workload.
What is also not in doubt is Remo’s ability to attract the top racers who come to him to sharpen their karts for the big races. In fact, more and more people are coming to him as a result of the experience he has and the results he delivers. Although Australian karting may be experiencing some uncertainty at the moment business for Remo Racing has increased so much that they have had to expand to new premises to keep up with the demand for their services. They now have over 1200sqm of workshop space with a further 600sqm of mezzanine which is staggering considering this all started out in a small garage 20 years ago.
When trying to explain what Remo Racing offers it might be easier to say what it doesn't offer because they do it all. They are the official importers and distributors for pretty much anything you would need to go karting.
Here is a quick rundown of some of the products you can get at Remo Racing, both online and at their shops:
- Monaco GP and Kosmic Karts
- IAME Engines (IAME Parilla & IAME Parilla Leopard)
- Yamaha Engines
- Freeminds Rib Protectors

- KG Products
- Lucky Design Products
- MG Tyres

Some of the new products Remo Racing have just stocked include Wildkart Hubs, in Gold and Blue, as well as the world renowned Lucky Design Products which include Helmet Design, Kart Graphics Kits and Apparel. Remo is very enthusiastic about the Lucky Design brand saying, "Lucky Design are an Italian company that have lifted the image of karting worldwide. This can be seen most evidently in the Italian Karting scene. They create professional identities for the go kart brands with their design stickers and logos… They are truly innovators for the sport."

As well as kart branding Lucky Design are also innovators of helmet design too, including supplying new ARAI helmets (the NEW ARAI SK-5 Helmet is also available from Lucky Design with your chosen design), and have the experience and history to suit any taste or application. These include design and colour with an easy step-by-step process of working out exactly what the customer wants with their helmet. This professionalism comes from years of experience on the Italian karting scene as well as the rest of the world.
Another winning product Remo Racing supply is KG Products. For over twenty years KG have been the market leader in the production of steering wheels, bodywork and accessorises for karts. As an example of how well their products work two years ago the top bodywork manufacturers for karts all put their products into a top windtunnel in the UK. While it was no surprise, it was KG who came out on top. Theirs was the fastest bodywork aerodynamically, which is all so important for slipping through the air with as little fuss as possible on track.
KG directly manage the entire production process (design and planning, model creation and production) and the warehouses. They are therefore able to monitor each phase of product development and, at the same time, carry out standard and personalised production. Furthermore, KG make use of the most advanced technology but also consider the experience and abilities of their personnel as an indispensable factor of the production process.
KG exclusively use top quality materials and carefully control supplies right down to the last detail. Each product is checked individually by specialised technicians. KG Products now supply 60-70% of world karting.
Remo Racing's boss Remo Luciani formed a friendship with Toyota Formula One driver Jarno Trulli. As it turned out Remo's family are from the same town in Italy and their families even knew each other! This bond continues today with Jarno's F1 team deciding that Remo's Leopard Series was something they were going to put their weight behind, creating the TOYOTA IAME Leopard Series. This is something Jarno had a hand in, as he had been a cadet karter in Europe before moving on to single seaters. He, and Toyota, recognised the value of endorsing racing safety while at the same time working with people with years of experience and proven results.

Remo is proud of the modern Toyota Leopard Series, praising the Parilla Leopard as one of the most user-friendly kart engines ever produced, with long engine life between rebuilds, easy push button starting, tuneable Tillotson carburettor and an alternator to keep the battery charged while the engine is in use. The complete engine kit is 'ready to race' including engine, radiator, battery, airbox, and all connections and hardware - simply bolt it on and go racing! Add to that a complete parts and service backup system (including 20 oversize pistons available).
As Remo himself says, "whether for race or recreation, the Parilla Leopard is an unbeatable winning formula."
And as if all the above was not enough Remo Racing even supply the Clubman Light and Heavy with tyres. Of the MG tyres Remo says, "They have been a success, we are supplying many competitors in the Clubman Light and Heavy and this is because they are very user friendly and no trouble."
MG Tyres are one of the main karting tyre manufacturers in the world. For more than 15 years, the company has been investing in research and development of new products for both competition and leisure markets. During this period, MG Tyres achieved a great number of victories, offering one of the most complete product lines of tyres for the karting industry.
MG Tyres is an important player in the international karting market. Besides its leading position in Brazil and Latin America, nowadays MG's tyres are being used in the USA, Australia, Canada, Europe and all around the world. From road courses to dirt to sprint tracks, MG Tyres are a winning presence in almost every form of kart racing.
