Does such a thing exist, and if not, what’s the youngest age you could feasibly get into karting?

My son has only just turned 3 but for the past year or so it’s been very obvious that without any prompting whatsoever that he has a talent for ‘driving’. As an example, we go to Haynes Motor Museum quite often and they have some kids karts, he instinctively takes the racing line, can thread the kart through tiny gaps without thinking about it and never hits the barriers. I went in a Kart up against him and genuinely couldn’t get past him, which was a little embarrassing.

This isn’t a pushy dad thing, just that he clearly loves it so I want to explore options where he could do it a little more often.
