Etymology

The word 'carting' derives from the noun 'cart,' which has its roots in the Old Norse word 'kartr' meaning 'to carry' or 'to transport. The usage of 'cart' can be traced back to the early Middle Ages when carts were commonly used for transporting goods and people. The verb form 'cart' gained popularity as the activity of moving things around with a cart became more prevalent. By the 20th century, the recreational aspect of 'carting' emerged, coinciding with the introduction of go-karts in the 1950s. Today, 'carting' encompasses both the recreational activity involving kart racing and the more traditional sense of transporting items using carts. The evolution of the term reflects changes in transportation technology and leisure activities over the centuries.
