You've been invited

If you have been invited to a Go Karting event with us, welcome and please take notice of the following information.

It is important you know your correct arrival time – your organiser will have received all the joining and arrival instructions as well as a map. We hope this information has been passed to you, please check your emails. A specific arrival time is confirmed and agreed for all bookings so you should already be aware of this.

All events have been booked in advance so all relevant information will have been passed to your representative / organiser. It is particularly worthwhile establishing whether you are racing on an Indoor or an Outdoor track.

Before departing for your event please make sure you have your organisers Mobile number – just in case you need further information. All of our tracks are not too far from central London so please check out your travel plans prior to departing.

Attending the GoKarting Safety Briefing and participating in the practice session is compulsory – if you miss the safety briefing you will not be able to race.

We recommend you wear comfortable casual clothing and flat shoes. High heels and open toed sandals are not considered safe, so trainers are probably best. Protective GoKarting race overalls and Helmets are provided at all venues.

If you are attending an Outdoor venue and it does happen to rain the race will proceed and all drivers will be provided with waterproofs. If the forecast is wet please consider bringing along spare shoes / socks and perhaps additional dry clothing just in case the rain gets through to your clothing. It is very rare for a race to be cancelled.

Helmets are provided and if you choose to bring your own Helmet it MUST be a complete, full face, helmet.

Bring a camera if you wish – we would also like to see the shots – your event can always be posted onto our GOKARTING BLOG.

A UK driving licence is not required – practice is given prior to your GoKart race so that you become familiar with its setup. We recommend you use your practice well.

Please contact your organiser to establish the location of your event and your specific arrival time. Your arrival time determines your track time so if your group happen to run late, unfortunately it will result in partial loss of your track time.

All GoKarting events usually run as follows:

Driver Registration
Change into protective gear and select helmets
Safety briefing (Allow 30 mins)
Kart Briefing (Allow 15 mins)
Practice (Allow 5 mins per driver)
Race until the chequered flag
Presentation to the top drivers or teams
Brag, chat and socialise in the bar or restaurant

Alcohol must not be consumed before or during your event. Safety of yourself, your colleagues and the track staff are paramount. Anyone known to be at risk of driving under the influence of alcohol will not be allowed to race – this rule is strictly applied.
