This is Hullavington.

This is a long list of kart tracks, you can't search by having a mini-moto hire fleet and the vast majority won't do it.

These are in Scotland. No mention is made of mini moto.

So yes, I would love some help.
But I want it to help, not be random links off the internet which waste my time because they're either already discussed in the topic of the poll or don't meet the requirements at all. Rolling Eyes

Specifically looking to see about any tracks Birmingham way or a bit further south.

I can't actually find anywhere local looking online that do minimotos or have their own fleet. Cannon raceway in Cosely used to afaik but no longer appear to, I assume that's the one who told you they sold theirs?

The only one i've actually found anywhere in the location options that is indoors and seems to be able to supply the bikes is Raceway Karting in Pontefract. Curiously they don't even have a circuit map or photo on their site and they will only cater for groups of 25+ (not really a hope in hell with BCF). Seems pricey too. To be honest I suspect it'll have to be Hullavington, they have a fairly large track and a fleet and aren't that expensive, the karts are kinda naff though.

There's a few up-north that do offer both, however so far that's the least popular option.

This lot do both, thus my comments about south of stoke:

Its gotta be hullavington. We know they are good people and we know we can definitely use decent well maintained Karts and MMs.

Better the devil you know, etc.

Will you pay my fuel to get there? Wink

Over recent years Hullavington hasn't been perfect - a bit too moany about 'bumping' on the karts and organisation hasn't always been amazing.

fastlane at stoke is good, very little parking though.

Unfortunately I think this will be the least useful location from people's interest so far.

It would seem not that does both Minimoto and Karts - basically it's Hullavington, Stoke or somewhere M62 and above.

Might look at maybe doing a 'spring' event next year in the North - maybe try and make it even further north to get some of the Scots down too or something.

I'd be up for travelling to the Cambridge one, also don't mind taking 2 or 3 people from Leeds side..

This one is near Banbury (McGee can't 'not' get his phat ass there)

If it were to be in the North, 3 Sisters is a good out door track. They have 390cc carts that can do 65mph.

A guy at my work is organising a karting evening at Thruxton kart track which is apparently very very good, but I doubt they do Mini Moto's though sadly.

They don't, but yes I was eyeing up having a play at Thruxton before I moved a bit further away.

On my 'to do' list to book this at Hullavington... unfortunately the list is quite long Sad.
