Follow in the footsteps of F1 greats with this 60-minute Adult Kart Racing session at Rye House Kart Raceway in Hertfordshire. This is outdoor kart racing at its finest situated at a state of the art venue which has been home to the haunts of the early days of Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and even David Coulthard. As you race along, you'll soon get to enjoy the smooth tarmac of this top level circuit which has plenty of corners and fast straights for you to master. Included in your experience is all the proper kit so you'll be dressed from head to toe in karting race gear including the balaclava and full face helmet. As these karts can reach up to 60mph which feels so much faster when you are so close to the ground, you'll be thankful for all of the gear that keeps you safe and comfortable during your drive. Rye House is a fantastic way to bring along spectators to watch your drive as it has a viewpoint from the balcony that looks down on the track. As Hamilton said, "karting days are the best" so don't hesitate and get yours booked today.
