Gather the kids together and let them celebrate a special day in true style. Our karting parties are different to the ‘norm’ and are packed full of fun, excitement and guaranteed to put a smile on every child’s face.
Our younger kids aged 8-11yrs (min height 127cm) will take control of our nifty ‘LR5’ Sodi Little Racer Karts; with a maximum speed of an impressive 25mph and packed full of safety features these karts are ideal for first times and little speed lovers.
Older kids from 12yrs (min height 157cm) will be driving one of our Sodi GT5 Pro Karts. These karts are capable of up to 50mph and are comfortable and very easy to control.
It is important to us that every birthday girl and birthday boy feels great on their special day and ensure all their friends have a truly memorable visit. We are delighted to offer a limited number of exclusive Karting parties each day; these are extremely popular, especially at the weekends and normally book up well in advance.
We are happy to include a maximum of 2 adult drivers into the party format! (Mums and Dads can join in the birthday experience too… but only if they are allowed!)
