Speed, skill, and excitement at Lincolnshire's karting centers.

Lincolnshire is arguably the most significant county for competitive karting in the UK. It is the home of Paul Fletcher International (PFI), a circuit that holds a near-mythical status among racers as the only track in the country with an CIK-FIA international license. If you are serious about the sport, all roads eventually lead here.

Beyond the professional scene, Lincolnshire offers a fantastic variety of accessible driving experiences. The county's flat, open geography—famous for its aviation history—is perfect for large outdoor circuits. Ancaster Karting and Tattershall Kart Centre take full advantage of this, offering wide, high-speed outdoor tracks that are a world away from tight industrial estate layouts. These venues are ideal for corporate days, stag dos, and family groups looking for a high-adrenaline day out in the countryside. For those looking for city-centre action, Gridline Racing in Lincoln provides a technical indoor challenge that is perfect for wet weather or evening racing. Whether you are a dedicated owner-driver chasing lap times at PFI or a casual group looking for a high-speed weekend, Lincolnshire delivers some of the highest quality tarmac in the country.

Go karting in Lincolnshire - FAQs

Below are answers to common questions about karting in Lincolnshire, covering the best locations, track types, and racing formats.

Ancaster Karting is a top choice for large groups because the circuit can be configured into a massive 1,300m "Grand Prix" loop, and the facility offers multi-activity packages including paintball and bowling.

Yes, Gridline Racing is located centrally in Lincoln (Dunford Road) and offers a technical indoor circuit, making it the best option for year-round racing regardless of the weather.

Lincolnshire is unique because it hosts the UK's highest-standard professional track (PFI) alongside expansive leisure tracks like Tattershall, which benefit from the region's open landscape to provide longer, faster lap layouts than typical urban circuits.
