Good Fun Time On Circuit
IMPORTANT NOTICE (21/03/2020)
“Due to the latest Government directives as of 1730 on Friday 20th March as we are in the business bracket of leisure centres and sporting venues it is regret that we have been forced to close with immediate effect until further notice.
This means hire karts will not run & there will be no owner driver practice/test days at the moment.
For further information we will be posting this via Facebook and our website so please keep looking as we wish to open as soon as we are allowed to and let you all get back to one of the things we all enjoy.
We will be back and looking forward to seeing all our friends in hopefully the near future.
To all of our customers past and present we would like to wish you all the best in these trying times and keep safe.
All at LKC & LIKC look forward to seeing you as soon as we can go racing.”
HIRE KARTS are available all year round (except Fridays during the day and some weekends) for you to enjoy. Booking in advance is required, can be session(s) or there are a variety of adult events to choose from, or perhaps consider a team endurance event. Stag do’s & birthday parties are popular, gift vouchers available. Get in touch to find out more.
Owner Driver Practice/Testing
On our owner driver section you will now see the direct link for our dedicated Lydd International Kart Club (LIKC) website, please follow this for all race information.
Welcome to Lydd
Our 1040 meter circuit is the fastest for outdoor Go Karting in Kent and one of the fastest in the country. The fast and flowing circuit is very popular with all kart drivers, whether it be Owner Drivers at the monthly Race Meetings or Casual Racers taking part in our increasingly successful Hire Kart session(s) or adult events using our own fleet of karts . To confirm a hire kart booking please contact/phone the circuit direct, to firstly check availability and then to confirm a date and time. (We do not have on-line booking facilities and cannot guarantee to accommodate walk-in customers.)
We can offer karting for kids from 6 years old (subject to height restrictions) through to adults. Our hire kart fleet ranges from Bambinos (6 – 8 years) through to senior twin engined prokarts. Our prices start at just £20 for a quarter of an hour, with a wide range of group events available. The events and prices are listed on our Hire Kart page.
