Follow in the Footsteps of Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button

For fun that is fast and furious you cannot beat karting.  To experience the thrill of real outdoor Karting, why not head for Chatham's award winning Buckmore Park International Outdoor Kart Circuit, just off junction 3 of the M2 where British World Champions Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button learnt their trade.   A session at Buckmore, which celebrates its 49th anniversary this year, will be a day to remember.    The beautifully situated floodlit venue is organising Summer Holiday turn up ‘n’drive sessions for ages 4 to 16 on selected dates. For ages 4-7, 15 minute sessions are available on 5mph electric karts on the 120m  mini GP Circuit; whilst children aged between 8 and 11 (and at least 4'2" tall) can experience the 20mph user-friendly petrol Karts on the longer 300m Club Circuit.  For youngsters aged 12 to 16, the state of the art 40mph petrol karts are available on the more complex 600m National Circuit.  Prices start from £15 per session. 

On Sunday 7 August and Bank Holiday Monday 29 August 2011 the venue is organising a turn up and drive family karting day for all ages from 4 upwards.  Separate sessions are available on our 600m national circuit for adults (ages 16+). The circuit is open seven days a week, all year round entertaining over 150,000 visitors a year.  It operates late into the evening and caters for both children and adults with over 200 karts for hire.
