Any of them any good though? I can imagine brummie karts lacking wheels, and brummie karters complaining that they are too slow whilst using too much petrol :lol: :lol:

Both of them have good reviews from people I know who've been to them

I'd be very very interested in the GrandPrix Karting place, their outside track looks a bit awesome. AND there wouldn't be much Brummie slowness from those either :D

There's a good one in Leicester too but I don't think too many people are from there. I had good fun on this track. Quite fast:

I think midlands would be the best bet. I'll have a word with my boss to find out which out door track is the best in the area with the best karts.

My bosses recomendation for karting is http://www.cannonraceway.co.uk/index.htm

It is indoor but a ver good track. Price for arive and drive is £15 for 15 mins

It is supposed to be a good track for either a novice or experianced karter

Took this video this morning while taking one of the karts out this morning. It is with my phone held in my hand as I did the 2 lap test drive so it a little shakey and a bit slower than normal with cold engine and cold tyres but it gives you an idea what the track is like

Hope this is the right link
