John Schena has owned and operated a mechanical engineering and earthmoving business, with a fleet of various machines for over 22 years. His work in mechanics spans over 40 years. Starting from a young age, John has always had an attention for detail, modifying and improving everything that's crossed his path from go-karts to excavators.

His background in motorsport extends from racing both dirt bikes and go-karts. He has raced motocross enduros at the highest level in Australia. John competed in the Finke Desert Race, a total of 11 times, finishing as high as 8th outright. He spent years developing his own engines and suspension with great success and still to this day competes in vintage motocross.

John’s involvement in karting extends over 16 years, where he has spent time racing and developing karts. He was a partner in Wright karts when they first came to Australia and supported James to his first Australian title in a Wright Kart. The pair continued to work together in the Junior Rotax class achieving a ticket to the Rotax Max Grand finals in Portugal. To this day, John is Golding’s chief mechanic in the competitive KZ2 class, helping him to further develop his current Kart with great success. 


“I have known James since he was 8 years old and have been his mechanic for 12 years. I still enjoy being involved in karting at the highest level in Australia. Helping James earn a ticket to the World Championships in 2012 was a highlight for me, along with many recent wins in KZ2 at the Australian kart championships”.
