How to Choose Go Kart Racing

Anyone after go karting south of Wollongong's centre heads to Kembla Grange, on the south-west side of the region alongside Dapto. That is where Wollongong Kart Raceway runs its open-air track, a bitumen road circuit that suits groups wanting the feel of real motorsport over an indoor arena.

Because the karts race outdoors, weather is part of the experience: the circuit stays open when it rains.

Weighing up a karting outing in the south:

Setting – open air on bitumen, with sun, wind and sometimes rain
Entry price – from $59 per person, with multi-session bundles for keener drivers
Who can drive – over 10 years old, 150 cm or taller, and no heavier than 120 kg
Newcomers – a briefing on track rules, helmets provided and karts that can be detuned
Group catering – pizza and drinks after a party race, or a BBQ lunch on the full-day Grand Prix

Bookings are non-refundable, though any session the track cancels because of weather is moved to a fresh date.

Fields of five to ten – every race keeps the grid between five and ten karts
Sorted by pace – qualifying times decide the heats when a group is too big for one race
A deciding race – the quicker half can go through to an extra super final
Two party formats – practice plus a 20-lap race, or a 15-lap heat leading to a 20-lap final

Matching the package to the occasion

A casual catch-up – book one session or a bundle and just drive
A birthday or bucks crew – the heat-and-final format crowns a winner, then pizza
A workplace outing – the half-day Mini Grand Prix with a sandwich and drink, or the full-day version
Seasoned racers aged over 15 – the Ferrari Grand Prix in genuine 2-stroke race karts
