Northampton Outdoor Go Karting

Whilton Mill Karting

Whilton Mill is a vast estate with a historic mill but is perhaps better known for its legendary karting tracks! A 20-minute drive from the centre of Northampton, it first began kart racing back in the early 90s. In 2007 they unveiled a spectacular 1150m International Circuit and is the proud home of a thriving owner driver kart club, an on-site shop and race teams. As well as the International Circuit they have the Mill 450m Circuit, Indy 700m Circuit and National 960m Circuit. The fleet of Sodi 390cc engine karts reach speeds of up to 60mph, fast enough for any adrenalin junkie! Visit to find out why it’s a firm favourite with top British karting Championships.

Racing Simulator

Teamworks Karting Northampton

Have you always fancied yourself as a racing driver? If you love karting but feel like a new challenge, the new Racing Simulators at Teamworks Karting will be right up your street! Using the same software that Formula One drivers use to train, you can experience the thrill of a Grand Prix event from the safety of an indoor simulator. They have been built to feel as much like an F1 car as possible, from the Corbeau race seats to the force-feedback steering wheels, paddle-shift gears, and race pedals. The big screen displays will make you feel like you’re really racing around Silverstone or Eau Rouge! Each driver gets a personalised telemetry printout, and every month there’s a £50 cash prize for the fastest lap. So get practicing!

The surprising health benefits of Go Karting! 

Did you know that as well as being a fantastically fun activity, Go Karting is actually really good for your health? The biceps and triceps in your arms get a full workout, building strength and stamina. The concentration required to whizz around the track improves your concentration and hones your reflexes. The adrenaline rush you get from driving at speed not only gives you a buzz, it also helps dilate blood vessels and increase oxygen flow, improving your circulation. With all these health benefits, we think Go Karting should be on prescription!
