About TeamSport Mitcham

TeamSport Mitcham, on the Mitcham Industrial Estate in the London Borough of Merton, is the group's big South London site — and its clever party trick is the layout. Day to day it runs as two separate 400m electric circuits, but on select nights and for special events the two are joined into a single 800m "International" super-lap. That combined length is why TeamSport bill it as "one of the UK's longest indoor go-karting tracks." It's a popular, busy venue, holding a 4.4-star average from around 1,800 Google reviews.

The Circuit

The track winds up and over a mezzanine level, so spectators upstairs get a clear view of the racing below and drivers get genuine elevation change rather than a flat loop. Karts are the latest Biz EcoVolt GT electric machines, with a steering-wheel "Boost" button in some race modes for a short burst of extra power to help with overtakes, and marshals can put up to 17 on track at once. When the full 800m circuit is running for an event it's long enough for proper race distances where consistency and strategy count; on the standard 400m tracks it's a quick, flowing intermediate-level lap that still rewards drivers who put the time in.

Who Should Visit

Mitcham is built for groups — mixed-ability work outings, stag and hen parties, birthdays and family days all fit, and the sheer capacity means larger bookings are easy to accommodate. Racing is open from age 8, with junior electric karts using adjustable speed limiters for younger drivers, so a group spanning a wide range of ages and experience can all race together. No kit or prior experience is needed. If you want the longest, most event-driven karting South London offers under one roof, this is the one to aim for.

Planning Your Visit

You'll find it at Unit 18, Streatham Road, Mitcham (CR4 2AP), just off the A216, with free parking outside, disabled parking and free Wi-Fi. Note the upstairs bar area isn't wheelchair accessible, though some ground-level spectator space is.

As an indoor venue it runs year-round, and there's a bar and restaurant on site — the usual burgers, pizzas, hot dogs and waffles — so it works as a full evening out, not just a race.

If you specifically want the combined 800m super-lap rather than a single 400m track, check which format is scheduled when you book, as the full circuit only runs on certain nights and events. Booking ahead online usually earns TeamSport's standard advance discount; prices are mid-range for UK karting, so confirm current session times and rates with the venue before travelling.
