Lakeside Karting Raceway

Visited Lakeside Karting on Junction ³⁰⁄₃₁ M25 Thurrock 20/​11/​2011 We were in a group of 16, the day consisted of 5 minute practice, two 10 minute races and a final 20 minute race. I am very dissapointed with this particular Karting centre as their rules around failing to stop on a red light with real mittigating circumstances were extremly harsh, one lap into the first race and they disqualified me, all other places I have been to would bring you off and make you sit out a few laps or the first race and let you back in, as these centres are not advertising for pro Karters but for amatuers wanting a good time with their friends. It cost £85.00 with no refund policy, very strict rules for amature Karting, it takes all the fun out of it, to top it off there was a lot of stop starting with serious accidents that went un noticed and were handled poorly, much more dangerous in failing to see a red light on the first two corners, very un enjoyable experience for those who have driven karts many times before. I will never recommend this Karting centre and having read various other reviews, I am not at all surprised.
