Knockhill Karting Circuit, Technical Spec and E-Brochure

 

The Knockhill Karting Track

Our purpose built karting track is 500m long by 9 metres wide, fully floodlit and available 7 days a week all year round. Our Pro Karts can reach speeds of 50mph on the straights and tackle the twists and turns of the track with ease. We have an average track time of 36 seconds with our Pro Karts and 42 seconds with the kadet karts. Up to the minute lap timing technology is installed in every Kart at Knockhill allowing you to track your progress and take home a printout of your times. Our karting staff are friendly, very experienced and fully trained. Our location is second to none based in the heart of Scotland's National Motorsport Centre!

Our fleet of SODI Karts are fuelled by LPG Gas making them quick, smooth and very responsive from a standing start. Powered by a 270cc Honda engine our Karts are capable of speeds up to 50mph. Cadet Karts offer laps of fun for kids aged 8-11 years old and are the perfect introduction to karting for the younger generation. Our karts are carefully maintained by our dedicated team of mechanics and are always presented to you in the best possible condition.
