Wouldn’t you love to see all the family HAPPY at once?! Have fun being racing car drivers for one day & experience a new thrill TOGETHER? That’s just what can happen at Wight Karting where the whole go karting experience is taken up to top notch – you even get to wear a race suit and your lap times are all recorded. #1 Trip Advisor family action attraction, this is all weather, outdoor fun for 8-88 yr olds. Pay & race together as a family, or book kids in Junior Track Day. It’s a simple process for those new to the sport: Arrive, fill in all your details on the computers and get your photo taken. Then pick a race suit & wait in the café. When your face appears on the big screen, go to the Briefing Room and get a lowdown on how to drive the kart and all the rules. Then helmet and hairnet on, (or buy a branded balaclava), you’re allocated a kart and you’re off! Friends & relatives can cheer you from the balcony Cadet karts (8-11yrs) are green and go up to 25mph, everyone else gets an orange kart but those for 12 to 15s can’t go over 35mph. Those over 16 can go at up to 48mph.
The Marshall gives you a trail lap first and the timing starts as soon as you pass under the ‘loop’. In the fastest cars you might get about 18 laps in your ten minutes and travel about 4 ½ miles. Friends and relatives can watch from the tables on the café balcony.
You’re given your lap times, with your fastest lap highlighted. Then compare yours to the fastest of the day, week and month. With free parking and wifi this is ‘karting with style’!
