VISITKENT BUCKMORE PARK - FAMILY KARTING DAYS A FOUR-WHEELED PETROL THRILL. THE IDEAL ALTERNATIVE FOR AN EXCITING FAMILY DAY OUT. Buckmore Park has been a name synonymous with motorsport since its construction in 1963. It has been the breeding ground for British champions in many different disciplines, including Formula 1 stars of today and yesteryear. But, putting aside its racing pedigree, Buckmore Park is not just for the blue- blooded racer, it is home to hire karting: the grassroots of motorsport. The attraction of hire karting is threefold. Firstly, all the equipment necessary to take part is supplied, including use of the kart as part of the hire fee and there are no hidden costs. Secondly, you can experience racing in its most basic, yet purest form – the bare essence of fun. Lastly, everyone aged four and above can take part; with different karts and sessions for different age groups, it provides an adrenaline-fuelled alternative to a traditional family outing. No prior driving experience or licence is necessary, it is as simple as finding a date on the website that suits you, booking your space and then arriving on the day – the Buckmore team will take care of the rest. The summer holidays are just around the corner and with their arrival comes a jam-packed list of family karting day availability, but you’ll have to be quick, sessions fill up fast! 01634 201562 sales@buckmore.co.uk www.buckmore.co.uk 69
