SPONSORSHIP

Jacques Goodman Racing are always on the look out for new sponsors! To be honest you can never have to many sponsors on board!!! Like any form of motorsport, karting is expensive and we have to rely on family, sponsors and supporters to keep us on the track!

In return we offer (to all our Supporters and Sponsors) Professional Photography, Social Media/Web awareness of Brands and Products and advertising across our kart and trailer. Additional to this our sponsors also appear on all our branded items, e.g. T-Shirts, Caps etc. to ensure our sponsors have the best exposure possible on and off the track!

For more information on our available sponsorship packages, please call 0406 086 869 or use the contact form below… we’d love to have you on board!

KARTING

Karting is the grassroots of motorsport and after 3 years in hire karting achieving 2nd in Australia in my first year and podiums in nearly every race, it was time to take on a new challenge and hit the track for some real racing!

2020 is my first full season in proper karting, in which I am achieving top 10 results in fields of 20 plus racers. These results are even more special given our budget and the fact that we had to start at the back of the field for the first 4 races of the season as a new racer!

We currently race at Ipswich, Warwick, Toowoomba and Bundaberg and as a privately run ‘team’ and couldn’t compete without the dedicated support of family, friends and our awesome 2020 Sponsors!

SUPPORT FOR HEARTKIDS

HeartKids holds a very special place in my family’s heart! In 2018, my younger brother had to undergo Open Heart Surgery, due to a congenital heart defect. During this difficult time the HeartKids Charity supported us immensely!

So when the opportunity arose, I wanted to support them the best way I could… through my karting! So as you’ll notice my kart and race suit features the HeartKids logo. Hopefully this small gesture goes some way to raising awareness of congenital heart disease and the awesome work the HeartKids Charity does.

SIM RACING

While our karting calendar had been cut short, Jacques Goodman Racing certainly hadn’t stopped racing!

Sim racing is the closest form of racing we can currently experience away from the track! By using the iRacing platform, we have the best and most realistic race simulation possible – which is based off real world cars and tracks. In fact it’s so close the the real thing even the pro’s use it!

Besides being awesome fun, it allows me to stay race focused and always race ready!
