One word. Awesome! Can't recommend this venue enough.
The staff are always very welcoming and professional. They make you feel comfortable. Other tracks just tend to get you in the kart and out again to keep customer turn around high. These guys will actually have a conversation with you, make you feel comfortable and human!
Plenty to choose from the bar, lovely coffee or tea if that's more your thing. Biscuits and crisps, this place has more to offer than my snack cupboard at home!
If you are a novice Karter they will spend extra time with you before go out on track to make sure you are comfortable in the Kart and happy with all the controls. This often gets overlooked, at other tracks I have been to.
The Karts are kept in great condition by the team of mechanics. I can assure you, you will not find a dog at this track. I mean a dog of a Kart and not an actual K9! Great attention to detail is payed to keeping the Karts as even as possible in terms of handling and performance. It really will be a show down of talent and not who gets lucky and ends up with the good Kart, which I have found elsewhere.
The track is very technical for an indoor track, with some challenging corners and a very fast back straight where you can stretch the legs of the 200cc Sodi karts. Plan your moves right, there will be some brilliant overtaking opportunities.
Safety is very important to me. At no point have I ever felt worried when out on track here. Any bad driving is dealt with right way and in an appropriate manner. The marshals do a great job in keeping an eye out for everyone. If you do push that bit too hard, run out of talent, stuff it in the tire wall because you thought you were Lewis Hamilton for a second the marshals are always right over and making sure you are alright.
Venue has good facilities for spectators too. Nice chill-out sofa area with TV and Live timing screens. Mezzanine viewing area overlooking the track, or a track side seating area if you want to be amongst and closer to the action.
To sum it up. Brilliant value for money. The staff make you feel comfortable and make it a personal experience. The track is very technical and good fun to drive. Karts are in top condition and very equal. Truly the best venue I have ever been to. Highly...
Read moreI hired Formula Fast for a fundraising event and they are one of the best venues we've ever used.
We chose to go with an exclusive hire (which is a minimum of six karts and then you have the full venue for your use - like for a birthday or a team building session. )
From the very start Phoebe helped me with all the planning, she could see what I wanted to achieve and stayed in communication throughout. On the day Lily, Katie, Mia, Charlie, Josh, Ollie, Nate, Michael - the whole front of house team were absolutely outstanding and beyond helpful to ensure everything ran smoothly and safely. (This was especially important for me as I wanted to have my dancers perform and stand as cheerleaders, as well as fizzy water for the podium - all of which was accommodated with style and safety).
I thank Formula Fast on behalf of everyone who attended for your excellent hospitality. Every single team member was knowledgeable and supportive, and they even added extras like special lighting for us.
All our guests said how lovely your facility was - welcoming, high tech and they loved the package options you offered - especially the unlimited pizza!
We will certainly be back ourselves and would highly recommend Formula Fast for team...
Read moreI honestly don't write reviews often but felt I had to this time.
First time going to formula fast and karting for that matter, boy was it fun. Staff were excellent, like amazing excellent.
From the first point I walked in I was greeted with the happiest smiles at the front desk and made any first time nerves vanish instantly. Everywhere was spotless and nothing out of place. Registering was so easy and seem less.
Once that was done I was taken off to get suited up and have the very important briefing that I'd recommend everyone pay attention to, especially if it's your first time. The race suits are comfy, as was the helmet, gloves and balaclava which I got to keep. Which is good because I am 100% coming back.
After the session was over some of the staff seemed quite impressed with my lap times considering I was a first timer.
Anyways long story short, you need to go, it's amazing fun and we'll worth the money.
Thank you so much formula fast team for a great first experience, I think it helped me find a new hobby. I'm sure I will be seeing you again very soon, maybe even start a...
