Our outdoor karting track delivers non-stop action as you battle it out for the top spot. With practice laps, heats, and finals, everyone gets a chance to compete, and the top three drivers will take home trophies. For groups of 15 or more drivers, the stag and hen race for free.” So, what can you expect on the day? “Arrive and sign in, get fully kitted out, attend a safety briefing, then hit the track for practice laps, heats, and finals,” Jayne continues. “Driver numbers determine final formats and event duration, ensuring competitive racing for all skill levels. All suits and helmets are included. “Driver numbers taking part will determine the duration of an event but as a guide up to 10 drivers take one-and-a-half hours, 11-15 drivers take two to two-and-a-half hours and 16+ drivers take two-and-a-half to three-plus hours. The weather also plays a part in the duration as if it’s wet it will slow things down. “No experience is necessary and you don’t even need to hold a driving licence.” So, what are you waiting for?
