How to Start Kart Racing

If you want to try karting for the first time the best approach is to have a go at a Karting Blast. That's where, after a quick safety run through by our instructors, you drive a SODI kart on the Three Sisters circuit for 20 minutes. It's not a race, so there's no pressure. It's simply a great way to test the water and see if you like it.

If you decide karting is something you want to pursue, or maybe you already have plans to be the next Jenson Button or Lewis Hamilton, then you'll need a licence to race.

ARKS Course & Test
