A Statement from the President!

I believe that motorsport should be accessible, inclusive, and welcoming to all. I am proud to stand with a group of amazing volunteers who foster a culture that values diversity, encourages participation from all walks of life, and embraces forward-thinking approaches to community and sport.

Our club isn’t just about racing—it’s about people. We are committed to building a vibrant karting community where members feel supported, respected, and inspired to grow. Whether you’re a seasoned driver, a first-time karter, a volunteer, or a local group looking for a space to connect, our doors are open.

We actively encourage partnerships with other community organisations, offering our facilities as a shared space to learn, collaborate, and thrive together. By opening up our track to broader use, we strengthen ties within the community and create new opportunities for engagement and growth.

Together, we’re not only shaping the future of karting—we’re building a stronger, more inclusive community around it.
