There's a choice of either the International or National Circuits with drivers greeted on arrival, signed on, kitted out and briefed before being issued with their own Biz NG1 ThunderKart.
The session starts with a 10 minute pre-race practice session to familiarise yourself with the circuit and karts, then starting from a random grid position you take to the track for the first of your 20 minute races.
To even things up, and to create a greater challenge, the starting grid from the first race is then reversed as you take your position on the circuit for the second of your 20 minute races.
The results of both races are then combined, with trophies and podium ceremony for the top three drivers.
Duration approx. 2 hours.
