Go-karting is enormous fun. Whizzing around the track with the tarmac inches from your seat makes you feel as though you are going full tilt – all you have to do is concentrate on the fastest, smoothest line around the track.

If you are looking for an all-action visit to our area, go-karting could combine really well with a balloon flight. You will quickly become involved in racing battles with other go-kart drivers - overtaking opportunities are limited so make them count and protect your racing line at all times!

Go-karting is probably the closest you can get to professional racing without doing the real thing. It is not just for the experienced driver. Go-karting can be enjoyed by all levels of experience, age and ability. The kids will love it, and may even persuade dad to give it a go!

There are a couple of local go-kart tracks – Go-Karting Oxford (01865) 717134 and Klub Kart Racing (01296) 330567.
