Grand Prix

Start things off with some practice laps to learn the circuit and get to grips with your kart before moving onto qualifying which is all about the fastest lap, and remember it only takes a touch of magic on one lap to take pole position.

The Exclusive Grand Prix Extra format gives you an extra session of karting, so practise and qualifying both become their own 15 minute session.

Once you've completed qualifying the marshal will line you up on the grid for the official race start. When the lights go green it's time to race.

Once the lights go green, it’s game on. Nail the launch, defend your line, and fight for every position. Had a rough qualifying? No problem! Now is the time to show of your race craft and pick your way through the pack, take the lead, and be the first to see the chequered flag when the session ends.

The top three drivers will receive a podium presentation, where they will be awarded their respective 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize.

When you arrive at TeamSport our staff will be ready to greet you at reception. We'll get you checked in and ready to race.
