THE TRACK

Simple ways to shave seconds off your laptime
Without the simple theory of losing a couple of pounds, these tips might help you find your way onto the podium.

– Be as smooth as you can, a common mistake made while racing is trying too hard, any aggressive turning or braking will affect the karts behaviour.

– Sit back and relax, learning forward, jumping up and down in the seat, or hanging out of the kart while going around a corner only disrupts the intended balance of the kart.

Hearing tyres screech around the track may sound impressive, but the kart is actually going sideways instead of forwards.

Anyone can go fast into a corner, but 9/10 times the driver will either run wide or find a tyre wall to slow them down.

USER REVIEWS

A fantastic day had here today go karting and paintballing. The staff were spot on and the venue is very well kept. Would recommend to anyone. Definitely returning in the future

Daniel Swinscoe

The people are lovely, the karts are good fun, using the full track is great, food on site and they digitally track the laps of each kart and give you a print out at the end for bragging rights with your mates haha
Highly recommend! Will be going again!

John Neale

Great service, I was very satisfied when I came karting. Marshals were very focused and very active and the receptionists were organised and on top of all the other sessions and events. I would recommend Ancaster Leisure to my friends and colleagues.
