Preston karting FAQs

Ready to hit the track in the Guild City? From the neon-lit gaming of Combat Karts to the 60mph straights of Three Sisters, Preston’s racing scene covers every discipline. We’ve answered the most common questions to help you prep for your session.

For pure scale, Three Sisters Circuit is the regional champion with a sprawling 1.5km outdoor layout. If you want to stay indoors, TeamSport Preston offers a formidable 500m track that spans three levels of racing.

Combat Karts is a "Mario Kart" style experience where you drive real electric karts on a track with projected lights and power-ups. You can pick up virtual "boosts" to go faster or "missiles" to temporarily slow down your rivals. It is a separate experience from their standard speed-focused racing.

TeamSport Preston is fully indoor and unaffected by the weather. At Three Sisters and Formula Kart, racing typically continues in the rain. Driving an outdoor circuit in the wet is considered a "pro" challenge, requiring much smoother throttle control and different racing lines.

Yes, all three venues cater to younger racers. TeamSport Preston and Formula Kart have a minimum age of 8, while Three Sisters offers specialized "Arrive 'n' Drive" sessions for children and operates a Karting School for those wanting to take the sport seriously.

No, none of these venues require a road driving licence. You will, however, receive a mandatory safety briefing and a breakdown of track flags before you are allowed to head out onto the grid.

Preston is a high-demand area for corporate events and stag/hen parties. TeamSport and Three Sisters highly recommend booking online at least two weeks in advance. TeamSport often offers "Race Again" discounts if you book your next session while still at the track.
