About Ellough Park Raceway

Situated in Beccles, Suffolk, Ellough Park Raceway offers a substantial outdoor karting experience across 1050 metres of well-designed circuit. Long enough for genuine racing lines and real overtaking opportunities, it sits comfortably above the typical leisure karting experience without tipping into full-on motorsport territory. Petrol karts provide the authentic sound, smell and physical feedback of real motorsport — the kind of driving feel that electric venues cannot replicate. The venue is particularly noted for Floodlit circuit, British Championship venue and Corporate events. Rated 4.6 out of 5 by 500 Google reviewers, it is among the most positively reviewed karting venues in Suffolk.

The Circuit

The 1050m circuit at Ellough Park Raceway provides enough track to run proper race formats — not just quick bursts of laps, but genuine race distances where strategy and consistency matter. Petrol karts build speed progressively through the longer sections, with the physical feedback giving experienced drivers clear signals on grip and balance. The intermediate rating means the circuit is approachable but genuinely rewards experience — drivers who put in the laps will find themselves going faster as the session progresses.
