Experience the excitement of Go-Karting in Wiltshire on a 350-meter circuit at the edge of the Cotswolds. This challenging outdoor track offers genuine racing conditions, so you'll need to adapt your throttle, steering, and brakes to handle any weather. The high-adhesion 'SMA' tarmac ensures great grip, similar to professional motorsport circuits. You’ll start your race in a dynamic 200cc Stratos Kartpro, reaching speeds up to 30 mph. These karts, made by a specialist manufacturer with over 35 years of experience, are equipped with slick tyres and a four-stroke engine. Friends and family can cheer you on from the rooftop gallery of the 'Hammerdown' building. The Kart Grand Prix occurs regularly on Saturday afternoons and welcomes both solo drivers and groups, making it a favourite for stag parties from Bath and Swindon. Experienced instructors are on hand to ensure fair racing and provide guidance. Before competing for the title of King or Queen of Go-Karting, you'll attend a driver briefing to learn the rules and receive racing gear. After practising laps to master the track, you'll compete in four qualifying heats leading to the semi-finals. Only the top drivers will battle it out in the Grand Finale for the chance to claim a winner's trophy and be crowned the go-karting champion of Wiltshire.
