Buckmore Park Kart Circuit has bucked the trend and has announced a significant £300,000 investment into the Kent facility.

It is rare these days to read a story of a business that is still expanding and investing heavily in the future. One organisation bucking the general trend is Buckmore Park Kart Circuit, the award winning outdoor circuit located between Maidstone and Chatham and just off Junction 3 of the M2.

Buckmore Park have just made an impressive £300,000 investment in the acquisition of 65 brand new karts that have been built to their unique and exacting specification.

The circuit who are celebrating their 50th anniversary later this year is the busiest in the country with up to 100,000 annual visitors.

It is the very circuit where F1 legends Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and new Marussia signing Max Chilton all honed their skills as youngsters. Today the circuit offers karting and off-road activities to all ages from 4-84 years.

Buckmore Park’s Managing director Bill Sisley said…

“We are proud to be able to offer our clients in the corporate and leisure sectors, as well as our junior drivers, these brand new karts that feature the highest standards of safety and technological advances that money can buy.”

“This investment is just the first stage as we have exiting plans for further circuit expansion and it marks our commitment to remain the best race and corporate entertainment kart facility in the U.K.”

The new karts are now available to all bookers of corporate, exclusive group or leisure enthusiasts and with 390cc Honda evolution four stroke engines will deliver the adrenaline rush to all who drive them.

The circuit caters for all group sizes from as few as ten to well over two hundred people. The purpose built multi-function clubhouse offers conference facilities and catering from a simple café menu to a full silver service dinner.
