BIKC headline sponsor Total Karting Zero are inviting kids aged 6 + to come and try out Bambino racing with them this Summer.
Total Karting Zero, led by Rob Smedley will get your little racer started early with training days or coaching sessions for beginners. The Total Karting Zero team will teach your little one the basics and safety of karting, before moving on to the essentials of racing.
Drivers will be taught real racing in electric racing karts on an outdoor track. The karts are turned to a low power for their first session, to ease the drivers into being on track while they get to grips with kart handling and safety.
Kids can experience the thrill of electric kart racing outdoors and you can rest easy in the knowledge they are being expertly taken care of.
