If
you live in Milton Keynes you have probably noticed the
red and white 'tent' structure next to the A5! This is
home to Daytona Motorsport Karting Centre.
Daytona Milton Keynes is the UK’s ultimate outdoor
karting venue, boasting two exceptional race tracks
complemented by excellent hospitality & conferencing
facilities in the centre of Milton Keynes. The circuits
are flood lit so operational from 9am to 10pm.
The International circuit is 1360m in length comprising
11 corners, some of which are very technical and straights
of various lengths. The International circuit suits racers
of all abilities from beginners to serious enthusiasts and
is widely considered to be one of the best circuits in the
UK.
The National Circuit is made up of 900m of the international
circuit and incorporates two corners that are not used in
the international configuration. The national circuit
provides a challenging drive and incorporates a variety of
technical corners with plenty of overtaking opportunities.
The North Circuit At 375 m the North Circuit offers very
close racing. The Circuit is challenging, with some
technical corners and is ideally suited to smaller adult
groups and Juniors. The North Circuit is the perfect
environment to learn and improve technique before graduating
to the National or International circuit.
When you arrive at Daytona you will be asked to register
your details on a computer just inside the entrance. You
will then be provided with a jump suit, gloves, and a
helmet.
The drivers are then given a comprehensive safety
briefing which explains the rules of racing, how to enter
and drive on the track together with meanings of any signs
or flags that may be shown on the circuit by the Marshalls
who supervise the laps.
A kart is then assigned to you and the circuit Marshalls
will ensure that you are comfortable and your pedals are
adjusted accordingly!
Laps are timed and at the end of your driving time
details of your average lap speed, fastest lap time, how
many laps were completed and times for each lap are given to
you on a personal print out, together with positions of all
the drivers so you can see who was the fastest and who came
last in your group!
We felt very safe and looked after by the Daytona staff
and would definitely recommend a visit for lots of fun.
