Bakersfield Karting Experience owners, Joey Yantis and Nick Sylvester met years ago at their local dirt race track, Bakersfield Speedway. They are both avid racers with their children following in their footsteps. The idea of BKE came about as an idea for their children to have an indoor dirt track to race on year round. It quickly turned in to something much bigger. After 9 months of construction we are finally ready to share our love of racing with all of you!!
