Karting

I've been trying for ages to get the members of my owners club to do something other than polish their cars, most won't risk a track day, sprint or hillclimb, even when I offered to provide the necessary PPE, for fear of damaging their blinged up showmobiles. At last I seem to have got them interested in a karting day in the New Year, can anyone, from experience recommend a decent not too expensive, venue in the West Midlands. Not really after the max speed 15 mph indoor type places, more something a bit more serious we can have a bit of a competition at.

There used to be an indoor kart track near M5 Junction 1 by Keltruck.
