Karting Tracks
Karting is a great way to spend the weekend, and it’s a fun way to bond with family and friends. Depending on your level of karting skills, you will find many options available to you. Take a look at some of the best tracks in the UK.
ELK Motorsport Newark
Find their tracks at Drove Lane, Winthrop, Newark, Nottingshire, NG24 2RB.
ELK Motorsport began over two decades ago. David Kirk was rally car driver who also spent time fixing cars and running his several garages. When somebody approached him and asked if he could build ten karts for a circuit, he took up the offer and completed it.
On seeing how well it turned out, he decided to make some karts which he could use on his track. He searched for open spaces and finally landed on a former airstrip. His son, a go-kart racer, took up an interest in the business and they built it from the ground up.
The track is one of the greatest in the UK, and they manufacture karts for use on the roads. They also have leisure karts designed to make you have the time of your life as you do the laps.
They have a briefing room which is an excellent place to learn about safety before you hop into a kart. There are adequate parking and many washrooms in the arena. People can watch you in the spectator section so you can bring your friends along. You also get a lap timing system which is excellent for use to practice for upcoming races.
You can race in the outdoors on their many tracks. They also allow people to host events such as birthdays, corporate outings, team building, stag parties, hen parties and kids’ parties.
They have junior tracks which are ideal for kids. Whatever your tracking needs, ELK will have you covered.
