About

This is where a lot of top F1 drivers, including Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, first got into racing before being lured away. You'll be behind the wheel of a Pro 390cc Kart, which reaches speeds of up to 70mph. Start off with a video and safety briefing, followed by five minutes of practice laps each to get used to the karts and the 1,200m outdoor international circuit. Then it's time for you to pit your combined driving skills against the other duos in an hour long endurance race. You will each race for 30 minutes and teamwork is essential as it is the combined position of both drivers' races that decides each teams final overall position. Every driver will receive printed lap times and there is a trophy presentation for the top three teams.
