The Race Format
After a 4-lap practise session to get used to the kart and track, every driver races 5 times. Each race consists of 5 karts over a 3-laps, meaning each driver starts in every place on the grid including once from pole. The top 12 contenders then compete to race in the final, in two 4-lap races of 6 karts, with the top three in each race qualifying for the final. The final is longer still at 5 laps with the 3 podium finishers each receiving trophies.

The Track
This excellent pro track is one of the longest we know of at some 1200 metres. The special tarmac surface provides for ‘Real-Grip’ ensuring speed without compromising safety. Emphasis is on skill through corners, with the 7.5 metre width providing plenty of opportunity for overtaking.

The Karts
These Honda karts are the impressive 270cc single engine versions incorporating the latest liquid gas fuel technology. Capable of sustained speeds of 50mph down the straight, the three point steering means cornering is challenging and fun.

Duration
Allow approximately 1½ hours

Notes
Minimum of 12 drivers need for this format.  Other formats availble if you have less however.

Overview:
There's nothing quite like a good karting session to get you and the rest of the group in the mood for plenty of wisecracks and banter. The competitive nature of the event gets everyone in high spirits, and provides a great adrenaline rush. It'll provide a chance for those in the group who don't know each other too well to bond and get to know one another - which is a successful recipe for an epic day out!

The Track
This superb venue provides a 550 metre track demanding enough to test all drivers yet still offering plenty of overtaking opportunities. The tarmac is 6.5m wide at all points with 3m grass runoffs on both sides and incorporates eight bends, three of which are taken at high speed. A special type of blacktop, which does not soften in the heat of summer, has been used in order to provide maximum grip and fast lap times. Concrete curbs and 2 metre wide rumble strips also enhance the racing experience.

The Karts
The karts are JB Revolution pro-karts with twin Honda GX160 four stroke engines of 5.5Hp each. Gearing is set to give a top speed of 50mph, although if the track were longer they could accelerate up to 70mph plus.  That’s pretty quick when your bum is only a few inches off the deck.

The Race
The endurance race format is a team event (generally 2-3 to a team). The object being to cover the greatest number of laps in the allotted time.  Each driver spends approximately 25 minutes at the wheel (including 5 minutes practice), which means that in teams of three the race itself will be one hour long. All teams are on the track at the same time so overtaking, pit stops and strategy play a huge part in determining the eventual winner. A display screen near the pits keeps everyone up to date on the leaders and slowcoaches.

Notes
Minimum group size is 10 people

Overview:
There's nothing quite like a bit of head to head rivalry with your mates. They say that nice guys come last, so the question is whether you have the competitive instinct and controlled aggression needed to finish first? Or are you happy to look down the tailpipe of your pal as he passes the chequered flag?

The Circuit:
This twisty outdoor 500m track is challenging in both the wet and dry and with a 7 metre width there is loads of room for overtaking. Channel 5's car programme "Fifth Gear" recently raced a Ferrari 360 round this circuit, so that should give you some indication of its quality. The entire race is recorded by the latest in electronic lap timing technology.

The Karts:
The karts comprise of a brand new fleet of 270cc Honda powered BIZ EVO 2 karts which deliver impressive acceleration and can give top speeds of more than 50mph. Disk brakes ensure precise and effective braking. All of the karts are maintained to a high standard by a team of engineers.

Race Format:
The event starts off with a briefing on safety instruction and kart familiarisation, followed by a circuit walk. You will then recieve several practice laps each to get you up to scratch with the karts and the course before the real race begins. For the actual race you will be split into teams, with each team sharing a kart and being in charge of pit stops and driver changeovers. The idea of the race is for your team to complete as many laps as possible in the allotted time span (pretty similar to the Le Mans 24 hour race). Each driver will get approximately half an hour behind the wheel in addition to their practice laps. The winners of the race get to bask in their glory in true traditional style with a podium position and a bottle of bubbly to spray over their pedestrian cohorts.

Duration:
- Allow approximately 2-3 hours for this event, depending on group size.

Notes:
For groups of 12 people or less (Min 6) a sprint race can be arranged. There is a choice between 50 laps, 75 laps or 100 laps. Please ask for details.

Overview
There's nothing quite like a bit of head-to-head rivalry with your mates. They say that nice guys come last, so the question is: do you have the competitive instinct and controlled aggression needed to finish first? Or are you happy to look down the tailpipe of your pal as he passes the chequered flag? No one wants that on their record for future pub banter. 

Forget about speed limits and points on your licence, put your foot to the floor and burn rubber around the one of the city's  great karting tracks. Karting was made for large groups and whether you are racing individually or in teams everyone’s eyes will be on the leader board to see who’s on top.

This track features both indoor and outdoor sections, so it's a full-on karting experience where different weather conditions require true skills to master. So suit up, strap in, grab the wheel and unleash the speed demon inside!

Format
Each driver is going to get ten practice laps, before competing in two 20 lap heats.
After these heats, the top 5 timed drivers will go into a nail-biting 5 lap final to determine the overall winner.

Duration
Allow approximately 1.5-2 hours for this event, depending on group size.

Notes
This event can be combined with other activities such as clay shooting, zorbing or tank driving at the same site.
