Originally from the North West of England the company founder and still Managing Director is Graham Liddle a successful go-kart racer winning 4 world cups between 1968 and 1973.
With years of expertise in Go-Karting and a background in engineering it was decided that Graham should manufacture his own range of purpose designed rental go-karts which would be safe, fun to drive and also be built to a standard required for commercial use, and from this Formula K as a manufacturing company was born in modest workshops in 1980.
Within a small time frame the products were selling nationwide as the only viable option to new commercial operators. Soon an international demand for these karts came apparent with new operators around the globe, hungry to bring this new and exciting leisure activity to their region, to date Formula K has exported its vehicles and equipment to over 50 countries worldwide.
