GP40 WHAT TO EXPECT

It all kicks off with a warm welcome from our passionate team, who will set you up with a race suit to unleash your inner racer. After a comprehensive safety and track briefing, we’ll equip you with a race helmet and gloves, gearing you up for the adventure of a lifetime.

Once the rules of engagement have been laid out, you’ll hit the track for a 10-minute practice and qualification session. This is your chance to truly own the track, mastering every turn and chasing your personal best lap time, which will determine your starting position for the race.

Then, it’s time to shift into high gear! As you line up on the grid, your eyes will be fixed on the lights – first red, then finally, GREEN! The race begins with a rolling start through our initial two turns, guided by the green flag.

Over the next 30 minutes, you’ll experience the rush of competition, with countless twists and turns along the way. Stay cool, stay consistent, and watch as you navigate your way up through the field, aiming for that podium finish.

The thrill peaks at the podium ceremony, where you’ll revel in your achievement.

OUR OBLIGATION, YOUR DUTY

At our core, we’re fueled by a deep passion for racing, and our commitment to real racing rules and, above all, safety is unwavering. While we wholeheartedly believe in the joy of racing, it’s essential to emphasize that there are repercussions for disregarding the rules. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to any behavior that puts fellow drivers at risk or diminishes their experience.

Let’s remember the reason we’re all here – to race. Our mission is to create the ideal racing environment for you. So, as we hit the track, let’s maintain an open-minded approach and show respect to every individual sharing the circuit with us.

However, if the thrill of competition isn’t your main focus, fear not. We also offer a range of exciting practice options to cater to your preferences. It’s all about embracing the spirit of motorsport while ensuring the safety and enjoyment of every participant.

We’ve just taken our lads and their friend to Brighton karting for the first time and were delighted with the facilities, staff and setup.It was a spur of the moment decision and the staff helped us out on the phone with the booking and sorting our specific needs.The boys had the most fantastic time and came off the karts suitably tired.The location is lovely and the cafe serves a very nice zero beer!We will definitely be back again.Thank you

Top track love it, well maintained and good stewarding with virtual pace care which makes for great racing and limits the idiots you get on other circuits.Always have a good experience when coming here friendly staff and great facilities I can not speak highly enough and cheaper than alot of other tracks.

First class Karting venue. Real quality set up and super professional. The Karts are all very high quality and although I took my own kit the loan gear looked all good. The venue is great, there’s an awesome Cafe and everyone is super friendly. The circuit is challenging enough to keep you busy and the team really control everyone’s behaviours so there’s maximum skill minimum risk.All in all a fantastic place. Can’t fault it!

Awesome place - family run and it shows in the way it's kept and the engaging and interested staff. As outdoor circuits go must be one of the best.
