Indoor go karting in Maidenhead
Looking for a brilliant go karting experience, birthday party or team day out? With karting sessions for drivers aged four and over, everyone can enjoy racing on our double-level indoor track. Whether you’re booking for family, friends or colleagues, we’ll get you on the starting grid.
Race your way
From your first lap to chasing a new personal best, there’s a session to suit everyone. Adult drivers aged 14 and over can race on the bottom track or take on the full double-level circuit.
Families can book dedicated sessions for adults and children aged eight to 13, while cadet sessions give younger drivers a chance to build confidence behind the wheel.
You’ll race in Sodi GT5 karts, with 270cc LPG Honda engines for adults and 120cc to 160cc engines for younger drivers. Our karts have hydraulic brakes, adjustable pedals, movable seats and wrap-around bumpers to help every racer feel comfortable and in control.
Before you race, our team will talk you through the safety briefing. Friends and family can watch from the spectator viewing area, then refuel with pizza and snacks after the action.
Whizz Karts for children aged four to eight
Our electric Whizz Karts give young drivers a safe, exciting introduction to karting. Designed for children aged four to eight, they race on the top track with support from our trained team. With controlled speeds, seat belts, roll bars and safety bumpers, Whizz Karts are built with little racers in mind. Parents can watch from our viewing area while their child enjoys the thrill of their first laps.
Open Whizz Kart sessions start from £28 per child. Exclusive Whizz Kart parties are also available for groups of six or more children.
