Junior Training for 8-15 year olds

Note: This event can only be booked on the phone. Please call 01634 201562 to book.

Kart training is ideal for children who want to race safely and excel. It provides an excellent foundation for young drivers entering the competitive world of motorsport.

Racing line, braking point, turning in, hitting the apex and getting the power down at the optimum point. These are the techniques that every successful driver needs to know. Awareness in traffic, knowing overtaking opportunities and passing successfully are other techniques that are covered by Kart Training.

Structured tuition is offered and is personalised for each driver. A 160cc kart, helmet, race suit, gloves, neck collar, and rib protector are all provided, as is the use of the International Circuit.
