TAOD VOL 1 - 2025

Full throttle into the season: Our TAOD Karting Event

What a kickoff! Our season opening wasn't just about arriving, but about taking off – at least emotionally. With 30 highly motivated participants, we set out to chase the title of TAOD Karting Champion at the first official TAOD Karting Event.

As soon as we arrived at the track, there was a palpable excitement in the air. You could tell right away: This isn't a meeting of beginners. This is a gathering of enthusiasts who know how to drive precisely, find the perfect braking point – and never lose sight of the fun. Completely in the spirit of "The Art of Driving".

After a short briefing and the obligatory helmet fitting, things got serious. In an exciting qualifying session, the battle for the best starting positions began. Everyone pushed themselves to the limit, searching for the perfect line – and sometimes maybe a little more. The smell of rubber in the air, the roar of the small engines, and the glances through the visors: If you didn't get goosebumps by this point, you were probably still standing in the pit lane.

Then came the grand finale. We raced around the track at racing speed, engaged in fair but uncompromising duels, and demonstrated that passion for performance isn't tied to horsepower. The competition was close – milliseconds decide the placings. It was that typical feeling: adrenaline meets precision, and every centimeter counts.

In the end, our first TAOD Karting Champion was delighted to take pole position on the podium – but really, there were only winners. Because what united us all was the enthusiasm for driving at the limit. Whether with or without a roof over our heads.

The karting event not only kicked off the season, but also set the bar high for future events. The mix of racing spirit, community, and genuine drive was exactly what "The Art of Driving" stands for.

And one thing is already certain: This chapter was just the beginning.
