Hi All

We need to organise a karting party for a group of 7-8 year-olds, in or near Nottingham, but we cannot find anywhere that will allow kids that young lose on motor karts. Electric kiddy karts are too tame.

Any ideas please?

Or try Kurburgring near M1 J28, indoor & good for parties - they even have a Stig for the kids to race against biggrin

According to their site, the smallest karts are 8 years old minimum.

But I have just noticed they do tandem Karts so maybe that's a way forward, thank you.

When our kids were younger we had these electric Karts (albeit from a different provider) http://www.big-bounce.co.uk/category/go-kart-hire/...

Yes they do, and its a nice little kid circuit they have. im sure if you call them or pop in they will sort you out. Always been a good bunch of guys for us. They even leave us to it on the adults track for a bit of tactical bumping without getting arsey aslong as we are still lapping quickly wink

What may rule it out is geographic location. We are 18 miles away and we are the closest of all party goers.
