Welcome

Let’s Go Karting is a nationwide campaign that will give thousands of young people a taste of kart racing for just five pounds.

Let’s Go Karting is being funded by the Motor Sports Association – the governing body of UK motor sport – to provide karts, equipment and instructors at locations throughout the UK. The scheme will enable young people to experience the thrills of karting without having to make the financial commitment of purchasing their own equipment. The nominal charge of just £5 per person makes it accessible to any person, from any background.

Whether you are aiming to become the F1 World Champion in 2020, or just looking for a fun and exciting day out, then Let’s Go Karting is the perfect step into this brilliant sport. Karting is the traditional entry point for motor sports and many of the world’s best racing drivers like Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, David Coulthard and Anthony Davidson started off in karting. The sheer thrill of sitting behind the wheel for the first time will leave a lasting memory – and who knows, you may even become a racing driver yourself!

You can start karting from the age of eight and you will learn a whole host of valuable skills that will stay with you for the rest of your life! Whether you go on to compete or just have fun at the track, karting offers excitement and family fun at dozens of tracks around the country with race meetings almost every weekend of the year.
