A great morning spent at SCK to celebrate my little boy's birthday. Not only was it brilliant fun, the staff were amazing; friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. From the enquiries pre-booking, to a booking amendment, and through to the actual day, the customer service was top notch. Highly recommend this venue and we will return!

My partner and I had an amazing time here. Darryl in particular was amazing at making sure we had fun and stayed safe. If you are experienced in karting or have never tried it before this is a great place to go to have fun.

had a great experience at south coast karting. i was lucky enough to have the track to myself, which made it even better as i could really focus on my laps without any traffic. mitchell and daryl were both excellent from start to finish. really friendly, helpful, and made sure everything ran smoothly. they gave clear guidance and made the whole session feel relaxed but well organised. overall, the service was spot on and the experience was top quality. i’ll definitely be coming back again.

Would love to thank the staff for an amazing experience. We came in the morning and went round for the 2 sessions. The karts were good and even though the track was wet was also made it fun. We decided to come back in the afternoon and they kindly fitted us in, extremely helpful with all of our questions and made us feel at home. So a big credit to the guys gutted I didn’t get there names but rest assured they will look after you, also kindly took photos of my son driving round too. Thankyou

First time outdoor Karting, definitely worth the visit. Friendly and knowledgeable track staff, fast and technical layout - perfect for an evening racing be it alone or with a group. Coffee in the diner very well priced. 10/10, would recommend.
