Set against
a backdrop of the ‘Sierra d’Aitana’ mountains this very impressive custom built 1,200m kart racing circuit is a thrilling challenge for all you wannabe ´Daisy Duke´ speed
demons out there. |
 |
As
you get ready for the big race you pick up your safety helmet (make
sure you’re wearing suitable footwear i.e. trainers, as no sandals are allowed, especially the heeled variety.) Lockers are also provided to store any belongings while you are racing. As you get behind the wheel, you are given safety instructions. Then its time to drive into position and keep your eyes peeled for the chequered flag …then you’re
off ! |
 |
It’s a great test of skill from the moment you tear away from the grid in this Formula 1 style race against your mates. With the karts top speeds ranging from 40-80mph (a choice of a 13Hp engine, 18HP twin engine or for the bravest among you… the 26HP twin engine). As you can tell it’s serious stuff so no surprise that they won’t
let you to race if you show up still drunk from the night before. |
 |
For
the duration of the race
(25+ mins) you will
need lightening reflexes
and great control to
tackle the tough chicanes
and tight hairpin bends,
traveling full throttle,
as you race each other
towards the finish line. |
 |
Prizes
are presented on the winner’s
podium for those finishing
in 2nd and 3rd place whilst
the winner receives a bottle
of cava to spray over the
rest of the girls!!!…or
maybe just to drink. |
 |
For anyone not taking part
there is a fantastic view over the whole circuit from the Restaurant & Bar where everyone can gather after the race for refreshments and a chance to gaze down at the oiled up mechanics down below. If all this excitement makes you feel peckish then there’s snacks available from the bar. However, if you like the idea of hanging around here for a while longer soaking up the atmosphere, then why don´t
you pre-book a 3 course meal.

The circuit can also be floodlit for those who prefer to avoid the heat of the day (or have slept all day!!) This way you can make an evening of it before going out on the town to celebrate ! |
