Is there somewhere where my daughter, who's nearly 7, could have a go in a kart?

Preferably in the south.

Don't want to do the whole competitive Dad thing, she just wants a go in one.

It'll depend how tall she is (not necessarily a good portent given her fatherwink), but as posted above Daytona at Sandown Park cater for little uns:

Cadet drivers must be at least 125cm tall (4 feet 1 inch). Junior drivers must be 142cm tall (4 feet 8 inches)
Alternatively Surbiton Raceway can cope with kids:

Buckmore park do a bambino kart school now for 6-7 year old. My son does it and he loves it, will give him an idea before he turns 8 and start in the cadet class.
