Top tips
- Book your session online in advance to secure your preferred time slot and potentially get better rates than walk-up pricing.
- Arrive 15-20 minutes early to allow time for check-in, safety briefing and fitting of racing suits and helmets.
- If you have mixed age groups, check which session types are available as junior and adult races are typically held separately to ensure fair competition.
- The venue is part of the larger Xscape complex, so you can combine your go-karting visit with other attractions or amenities in the area.
- Wear comfortable clothing as you'll be changing into racing suits; layers are a good idea as indoor venues can be cool.
