The story

THE REAL
THING

Zac Stimpson grew up on the karting circuits of the UAE: Dubai Kartdrome, RAK Track, Al Ain Raceway, the kart circuit at Yas Marina. The racing here is year-round and the grids are full of drivers chasing the same dream. He beat them to it twice.

Back-to-back national karting championships don't happen by accident. They come from the unglamorous parts: seat time in 45-degree heat, data debriefs after every session, and the kind of racecraft you can't teach.

He's sixteen. The next step is single-seaters, and the target is set: a Formula 4 seat by the end of 2026. This site exists for the people who want to be on that journey from the start.

The road so far

CAREER

  1. The start

    Six years old, racing the big circuits: Yas Marina, Dubai Kartdrome, RAK Track. Old enough to reach the pedals, quick enough to matter.

  2. Champion

    First UAE karting championship, won in the X30 Challenge UAE. Proof of pace over a full season, not one lucky weekend.

  3. Back-to-back

    A second title in the Dubai Bambino Cup racing series. Defending a championship is harder than winning one. He did both.

  4. The graft

    Season after season across the country: UAE Rotax Max Challenge, Dubai O Plate, IAME Middle East Cup. Different karts, same habit of finishing in front.

  5. Red flag

    COVID closed the circuits, then karting's costs kept the seat empty. Four seasons watching instead of racing. The speed didn't go anywhere: he came back and carried on finishing in front.

  6. Formula 4 Next

    The first Formula 4 simulator laps are already logged. The seat is targeted for the end of 2026. The partners who join now join at the start.

Partnership

YOUR BRAND,
ON THE GRID

Motorsport partnerships usually start when a driver is already famous, and priced accordingly. Backing a driver on the way up is different: your brand is part of the story, visible on the suit, the kart, and every piece of content from day one.

Zac's platform grows with every season: race weekends across the UAE, professional photography and film produced by off-brand, and a social presence built for the age group that will buy from you for the next fifty years.

  • Logo placement on race suit, kart and transporter
  • Content rights: studio and trackside imagery for your channels
  • Race-weekend hospitality as the calendar grows
  • First option on Formula 4 livery placement
