Treat Your Dad This Father's Day to an Exhilarating Gift
Make it a Father’s Day to remember with an exhilarating gift at Team Sport. We understand Father’s Day can be a chance to plan a day of fun and quality time with your Dad. Whether you’re searching for your Dad’s present or a gift from your child to celebrate Father’s Day for your partner, we’re here to help you discover an unforgettable experience.
Go-karting suits all Dads who love the need for speed, thrive in a fast-paced environment and ultimately want to be the winner (it’s time for them to channel their competitive nature). You can combine their love for cars or an entertaining activity with a family day out, enjoying the thrill of go-karting together in one of our high-speed courses.
The family competition is on, whether your Dad is new to go-karting or has plenty of practice. When we crown the winner, refresh in our bars for snacks and refreshments, recharging before you let your Dad nap from the go-karting fun.
Go-karting tips for Dads
If you’re racing your Dad down the go-karting track, he and the rest of your family need to understand the safety of go-karting and our best tips before you zoom off. Before every go-karting session, our staff will guide you through the basics of operating the go-karts and driving safely on our tracks.
We’ve shared some tips to enjoy the go-karting thrill, prepare for the day and perform well on the track - we know it’s Father’s Day, but it doesn’t mean your Dad won't welcome some healthy competition!
Safety precautions
- Sit comfortably in your go-kart and relax your body.
- Check you’re not wearing anything that could easily be damaged, such as jewellery.
- Stick to a suitable dress code - trainers, comfortable clothing and hair tied back.
- Never press down on the brake and accelerator at the same time.
- Avoid leaning in when you take a corner.
- Keep an eye on other drivers, especially the kart behind you.
Performance tips
- Race accordingly - pace yourself and think long-term when racing.
- Build up to full power rather than going full-throttle from the start.
- Maintain consistent speed, braking when necessary throughout the race.
- Understand what the racing line is and how to nail it to improve your lap time.
- Learn how to overtake, stopping you from getting stuck behind slow drivers.
Children may have a slight advantage over their parents. Being smaller and weighing less than Dads, they can whizz around the track and control the kart easier. Sorry to all the Dads on Father’s Day, as your child may come home with the gold.
