Grand Prix Karting is a 970 metre MSA and NKA Registered outdoor Karting Centre located just off the M6 about 1 mile from Birmingham City Centre, England.
It is one of the most famous circuits in the UK and caters for everybody from 8 years and over. Although most of the events are organised for Companies and Groups the chief instructor, three times British champion Nathan Freke, runs a series of master classes alongside his internationally respected ARKS School based at the centre.
Due to its location in the heart of the UK, many companies hold meetings and conferences at the centre prior to racing on the circuit.
Celebrities visiting the NEC just down the road are often snapped there by the media so the circuit can often be seen in UK newspapers like The Sun.
In addition to the main circuit the centre also has a designated Junior and Practice Circuit at the same location.
