My eldest has just turned 6 and has shown an interest in having a go at karting. He's had a go on electric ones on holiday and also was surprisingly adept at driving a lawn tractor over here, he now fancies stepping up a level.

I've looked at the usual suspects for karting such as in Leeds but none seem to offer anything for younger kids. There only seem to be a few dotted around the country and the nearest is miles away.

Does anybody know of anywhere in Yorkshire that may be able to assist?

I take my lad to Tyke Karting in Barnsley. They have a cadet drivers club 1st Wednesday evening of the month and last Saturday. Electric karts, £25 gets them on track for usually 4 or 5, 10 minute sessions followed by a standing start final. Best give them a call beforehand. Been looking into progressing into racing at local circuits, but I don't think it is possible to do without a large time commitment plus around £4k!
