The Circuit

The standout feature of Xtreme Karting Edinburgh is its purpose-built multi-level circuit. Designed by renowned track specialists 360 Karting, the layout features sweeping banked corners, dramatic elevation changes, a corkscrew descent and challenging technical sections, creating a fast, flowing circuit that's unlike the vast majority of indoor kart tracks.

The latest Rimo Sinus electric karts deliver instant acceleration, while an overtake boost button gives drivers a tactical burst of extra power to help make overtaking easier and racing even more exciting. The electric technology also allows marshals to remotely control kart speeds during incidents, helping keep races flowing smoothly with minimal interruptions.

At 450 metres in length, the circuit rewards smooth, precise driving. Finding the ideal racing line, carrying speed through the banked corners and timing your boost correctly can make all the difference, ensuring every lap is both challenging and hugely rewarding for first-time drivers and experienced racers alike.
