“Had an awesome time here! It’s great to see a proper petrol go-kart track rather than electric karts. The engine sound, acceleration, and overall driving experience make it much more exciting and authentic. The karts were quick, the track was fun with a good mix of corners, and the staff were friendly and well organized. One thing I didn’t expect was how physically demanding it would be! After a few sessions my arms and especially my lower back were feeling it. Holding yourself in place through the corners is definitely a workout. Overall, a fantastic experience and one of the most enjoyable karting tracks I’ve been to. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a real petrol karting experience!”

“I went here the other day for a race, excellent service, quickly got me and my son in for an induction and then for a race together. The racing kart was amazing quality, we had so much fun. I had a good yarn to a young staff member, overall the staff on the track were awesome, and I would come here again!”

Adult Race - 10 Minutes
Supa Karts Adult go kart races are your full speed Adrenalin hit. Our track allows you to race at the maximum indoor limit, and is not for the faint hearted. To race you should be a confident driver over the age of 14 years, with a minimum height of 1.5 metres. If you are just learning, or new to go karting our track layout has plenty of passing opportunities, so if you prefer to go a little slower you won't be holding up the traffic.
We have an excellent fleet of top quality French engineered and manufactured karts. The 12 Sodi RT8 karts are considered one of the best hire karts in the world. Built for safety and speed, they can really get you around our track fast.
The Adult Go Kart races are great for family groups, social groups, and corporate groups. Ideal for stag and hen parties, and birthday parties as well. If you have a group larger than 6 drivers you may wish to consider our race meets. If you are a more competitive driver you can also check out our racing competitions and leagues.
Family Race - 8 Minutes
Our family go kart races are great for the whole family. Designed for young families, families with a big age range, or Adults that are driving for the first time. The race is at a slower speed than the adult rides with karts racing around 25 kph. Adult drivers in the race need to keep to the same maximum speed, which creates a great opportunity for a race to see who is the fastest family member.
Our junior karts are smaller making it easier for the children to handle. They are designed for children aged 8 years to 13 years old for a self drive experience. Minimum height is 1.25 m to reach the pedals safely. We have 8 junior karts, that are specialised, and are able to be booked online. If your child is over 1.5 metres tall they may be able to race in an adult kart, but their kart speed will be restricted. For children's birthday parties we try to keep all children in the same size kart to avoid any unfairness.
TANDEM KARTS
We have 2 specially designed tandem karts for adults to drive their young children between 4 and 7 years as a passenger. A parent or guardian is required to drive to keep the young passengers safe. The tandem karts are available in a Family race, and are speed restricted. The child/passenger seat is quite small and in some cases a child may not fit. In this case we will endeavor to get the child driver into a junior kart, however safety is our priority and this is not guaranteed. We have to assess how many other drivers are on the track, and the ability / age of the child, and the safety of other drivers and track staff. Apologies if we are unable to get your child on to the track. Please make a booking by calling us on 03 374 9425 and let us know if you want to use a Tandem Kart, as they can be under high usage
