Go Karts South West Sydney

South West Sydney is car country, and that works in a go-kart group's favour. The region spans Liverpool, Fairfield, Villawood and surrounding suburbs, with plenty of parking, so getting a carload of friends or a team from the office to the track is straightforward. On Party Hero, go-karting in South West Sydney is currently Extreme Indoor Go Karting in Villawood, an indoor venue with three tracks and petrol karts that reach 80km/h. It suits groups who want a competitive race day, as well as parents organising a kids party.

Planning go karts in the south west:

• Getting there: Villawood is in the Fairfield area and is easiest by car, with parking on site and in the street. For groups who would rather not drive, the venue can point you to a private shuttle bus service.
• The experience: Grand Prix style race meets are the main group option, running from qualifying and a final up to practice, quarter-finals and semi-finals.
• Group size: race meet packages need at least 8 or 10 drivers depending on the package, and private track hire runs from half an hour to six hours.
• Booking lead time: the Extreme track runs on weekdays outside school and public holidays and the Sprint track on weekends and holidays, so settle on your preferred track before picking a date.
• Food and drinks: a corporate room can be booked for time off the track, and kids parties include two hours in the party room, so raise food plans with the venue when booking.

Prices start from $40 per person. Senior karts take drivers 13 and over, junior karts cover ages 10 to 14, and the Rookie track has speed-capped karts for ages 6 to 12. Every driver and passenger needs a $10 licence valid for 12 months, and first-timers need photo ID.
