Went with a group of 20 lads and we did the 60 minute grand prix. Very friendly staff. I thought It was a bit expensive, but it's really popular and everyone enjoyed themsleves. I could not get round the hair-pin without sliding though!!! The track is plenty big enough to be able to get past other drivers too, unlike most... More

This is a real hidden gem in Saltley a mile east of Birmingham City Centre. I have been to lots of indoor centres with friends from work which were great but this place is absolutely amazing. Although more expensive it is well worth the extra and I think you actually get more time driving and therefore better value. On top... More

Myself and 10 of my friends did the 30 minute race (with another 5 minutes qualifying) on the big circuit. We all had a great time (despite some moans of tired arms and the like after). We had the track to ourselves, the staff are all really professional and helpful, and the karts were great. Don't listen to the person... More

Went as a surprise birthday present from my girlfriend, had a fantastic time, staff were very helpful and friendly, even took a few photos of us going round and emailed the pictures swiftly. Perfect amount of time on the track, kitted out sensibly and found the karts handled brilliantly. Loved the circuit and all in all a great activity!

Visited this Circuit for the first time last Saturday and having raced at over 30 circuits it is certainly in the top 3 and possibly the best in the UK. The staff are very friendly although I felt a little over safety conscious for the regular driver, and the event was fairly and slickly organised. The best thing about this... More

The best day out we have ever done! Our hour session was really well organised and included 20 minutes track time - which is about 15 to 25 laps depending on how fast you go. After registering we were kitted out with a body suit, balaclava, helmet and gloves, before a quick briefing. You'll need to wear trainers and, as... More

some of the karts are really terrible, the rest are just poor. Winning the race is down to luck of the draw on the karts, not driver skill.
