My partner and I went to Supa Karts during the week and loved every minute of it. We were very impressed with the quality of the indoor track. The staff were friendly and accommodating, especially Mitch who took some photos/videos of our time there. The owners Nick and his wife were lovely to chat to and made our day extra special. Thanks again!

We've been to a number of go kart tracks during our travels to many parts of the world.
We hit Supa Karts on Saturday during a Holiday Weekend and expected it would be full with customers. We ended up having the track all to ourselves, and appreciated the safety briefing and friendly staff. Had a BALL!!

Hi Scott
Thanks for the lovely review.
Its such a shame, those holiday weekends are either really busy, or really slow. Either way I'm glad you loved having the track to yourselves

Been here a couple of times this year. Cool place to come and good for adults and kids alike.
Unfortunately we tried twice to walk in and have a race but both times were unsuccessful (first time fully booked out and second time would have to wait 2.5hrs for a race). Only on the second time were we told to make a booking online.
Pros:
- adults get to race with kids in reduced speed karts, but they are still a good speed;
- Great fun for adults and kids alike;
- Email the next day with race results and graphs - a great bonus;
- Good safety instruction briefing;
- Once registered (one time only thing), easy to sign back in;
- Plenty of helmets to choose from;
- Hairnets provided for helmets;
- Sponge padding for karts, if needed;
- Kart pedals can be adjusted for all heights;
Cons:
- Not being able to just walk in, have to book;
- Not able to see racing position / timings when on track racing;
- TV screen had blue update box on screen so not great for viewing results;
- Had to ask where timing of lap starts (not obviously posted that we could see);
- Adults who race with kids have karts that are reduced in speed but they are still fast enough to enjoy the race. However, not all adults karts were reduced in speed in our particular race so that was unfair to the other adults and dangerous for the kids (on guy in particular punted a few of the kids);
- Our group was put on back to back races with no break in between (never used to be like this)
- Bring a jacket or warm jersey (can get cold when watching races)
- No food or drink able to be purchased on site that we could see;
- As with other karts, no automatic steering so be prepared to use those arm muscles around corners
Would we go again - of course we would.
Would we recommend - of course we would.

Thanks NessyBear for a very fair review.
We are always working to make the track, the best it can be. Most of the things you have in your Con list we are working to improve or sort out totally, especially that stupid bue box on the lap time computer. Its a shame the race wasn't managed appropriately and that is something we will follow up on at our next Health and Safety meeting. Thank you for the heads up.
We always try and promote booking before you come in, as sometimes we are fully booked. Hopefully some stage soon, we can manage to get a 2nd or 3rd track :-) Its in the plans, but like all good things will be a work in progress

Super fun karts, super professional staff, fun facility and full on racing. I never expected so much at a venue like this. Ideal for a rainy afternoon or a corporate event like I attended. Nobody had a bad time.

Is there any model of karts for two people?
Yes. We have recently acquired some tandem karts. This allows an adult to drive a young child approximately between the ages of 4 and 8 years old depending on the child size. This model of tandem kart does not allow control from the child but does have a dummy steering wheel.
