Get your young racers revved up for junior karting at Knockhill Circuit in Fife! If they’re 8–15 years old and at least 127 cm (4 ft 2 in) tall, they can tackle our thrilling 500 m outdoor track. Kids aged 8–12 hop into Sodi LR5 karts—“LR” for Little Racer. Powered by Honda GTX120 cc engines, these fully automatic karts can hit 25 mph (which feels lightning-fast just inches from the tarmac!). They even feature adjustable seats, steering columns, and pedal positions, plus four-point harnesses and anti-roll bars for maximum safety. Bigger teens (12–15 years) move up to the Sodi GT5 karts, which pack extra power and space. Enjoy a 20-minute open-race session, with up to 11 drivers on track at once. These junior karting vouchers make the perfect gift for any 8–15-year-old speed enthusiast!
