Help Team USA driver Davin Roberts Race RMC World Finals BH!

Donation protected
Davin Roberts is a 13-year-old karting driver from Statesville, NC. Davin has been racing since he was 4 years old and has been racing sprint karts since about 7-1/2 years old. Davin enjoys fishing and plane spotting; however, his passion is racing, and his goals are to become a professional racer in the top ranks of sports car racing. As NASCAR keeps diversifying itself into road racing, Davin has an interest there too.

On February 2, 2025, Davin clinched the US Rotax Winter Trophy Championship, securing his spot as the first team member of the 2025 Team USA Rotax Kart Team! This December, Davin and his US teammates will travel to Sakhir, Bahrain to compete at the “Olympics of Karting,” the Rotax RMC Grand Finals. Rotax RMC Grand Finals is an invitational race, and the only way to earn an invite is by winning an RMC Grand Finals ticket. RMC provides tickets to race and/or championship-winning drivers. Additionally, the Grand Finals, held from November 29-December 6, 2025, will host approximately 400 proven winners from over 60 countries in 8 different categories. Davin earned his 2025 World Finals ticket in the Jr. Max category and will be competing against over 70 other 12–14-year-old drivers from around the world! The on-track action will last one week with Davin and his competitors all vying for one of the 36 grid positions in the final race of the grand final event on Saturday!

In 2024, Davin also earned a ticket to his first Rotax RMC Grand Finals, hosted last year in Sarno, Italy, last October. This would be Davin’s first European race experience. He showed to impress, qualifying 2nd in his group and 4th overall in the group's 70 plus drivers. He showed finishes of top five in all preliminary races, securing one of the 36 final grid positions for Saturday’s final race. Davin would go on to finish just shy of a Top 10 finish in his first Grand Finals, and he is hungry for improved results in Bahrain in 2025!

Earning the coveted Grand Finals ticket supplies Davin with a paid-for entry fee and all things kart related such as the kart, engine, fuel, and tires. It is up to each family to provide their own travel accommodations, including flights, lodging, car rental, etc., along with an international karting license. In 2024, Nathan and Ashley Roberts, Davin’s parents, financially backed the trip to Sarno in October 2024, along with the entire 2024 season of additional Pro kart races all over the United States. Davin raced multiple series and engine packages in 2024 and had much success, with 4 championships in 3 different series and added 5 feature wins to his resume!

In 2025, Nathan and Ashley continue to financially back Davin’s racing endeavors across the United States. Pro kart racing in the United States is an extremely competitive sport, and with that comes significant financial responsibility, not including the international travel and lodging needed for the Rotax World Finals later this year. So, we have set up this page to allow anyone who feels so inclined to assist in offsetting the cost associated with Davin’s Rotax Grand Finals appearance in late November/early December 2025. We thank all that are even considering becoming a part of Davin’s journey to becoming a professional racer and helping fund his trip to the Rotax Grand Finals in Bahrain.
