In the city itself, TeamSport Birmingham runs electric karts on an indoor circuit suitable for all abilities — the go-to choice for corporate events, birthday parties, and walk-in sessions.

The West Midlands is one of the UK's strongest karting regions, with a mix of high-spec indoor electric venues, traditional indoor petrol circuits and outdoor championship tracks. TeamSport Birmingham in Oldbury holds the title of the UK's longest elevated indoor track at 1000m, while Daytona Tamworth offers a premium outdoor experience on a 1000m professional circuit near the M42.
Within 25 miles of Birmingham there are 7 indoor venues and 3 outdoor circuits. Indoor tracks run whatever the weather, which makes them the safer choice for a booking made weeks ahead. Outdoor circuits are generally longer and faster, and reward a driver who wants to build a lap rather than snatch one.
The longest circuit near Birmingham is TeamSport Birmingham at 1000m, 4.9 miles out.
Of the 10 venues within reach of Birmingham, 4 run electric karts and 6 run petrol. Electric karts are quieter and produce no fumes, which matters in an enclosed building, and deliver their power instantly. Petrol karts are louder and generally faster at the top end, which is why most of the longer outdoor circuits still use them.
Whichever you pick, book ahead — weekend and evening slots at the Birmingham venues go days in advance — and arrive about 15 minutes early, as safety briefings are compulsory and latecomers can lose their session. Race suits and helmets are provided everywhere; bring flat shoes and tie long hair back.
