Our Story

DINO A/S was founded in 1958 by Finn Jørgensen in the Danish town of Middelfart on Funen with the aim of creating the world's best running go-kart. Here he built the first DINO go-kart himself, where he succeeded in creating a solid frame that ensured a unique and optimal driving experience.

Whether or not Finn Jørgensen ever created the best-running go-kart is debatable, but we can proudly say that we are the world's oldest go-kart brand, and as a brand we have helped define the go-kart industry within racing as well as rental.

In 2009, DINO A/S was acquired by Nørgaard Teknik A/S in Auning, and the factory thus got a new location in Djursland. DINO A/S thus became part of a larger group with more than 20 years of experience in the welding and machine industry. Competences and technologies from here became a natural part of DINO's DNA. At the same time, the acquisition has helped raise the quality and optimize individual components, which has created the complete go-kart.

Our vision

The vision at DINO A/S has always been to build go-karts where the driving experience is the focus. That is our main focus - and that has not changed. We have always taken pride in designing and developing go-karts with a low center of gravity and a low weight, which gives the driver an absolutely extraordinary feeling of the vehicle. This applies to both our racing and rental go-karts, where the rental part is still highly relevant to this day.

We want to build durable and service-friendly go-karts so that our customers only have to concentrate on the fun and excitement, whether it's driving the go-kart itself, designing race tracks or looking after their own business and clientele. Our customers do not have to spend unnecessary time in the workshop.

We are not afraid to play with the latest technologies, which is why our go-karts are always unique and different from other brands on the market. We try to think outside the box and move in the direction where no one else has been, which is probably the reason why we are still here after so many years behind.

Our team

Of course, all this and more would not be possible without our amazing and dedicated team of designers, engineers and a sales team.

Our designers and engineers are constantly working to optimize our go-karts. They strive to achieve the perfect go-kart, both when it comes to the aesthetic and the functional. The same also applies to our customers, where we can tailor go-karts according to their wishes and needs – no matter how big or small. That is why our customers always get completely unique go-karts, which they themselves have helped to define. It is based on our customers' feedback and wishes that we create some of the best go-karts on the market.

However, our perfect go-karts are not worth much without our tenacious and service-minded sales team, who try every day to provide our customers with the best customer service and a short processing time. They sit and process orders and answer phone calls and emails, so that our customers are always satisfied with their smooth-running go-karts.
