Tuition is one-to-one enabling the driver to get the maximum attention from the instructor. All karts and equipment are supplied for the lessons to suit the driver’s age and ability.  Ages: 9 years upwardsLesson: Lessons include 2 x 15 minute driving sessions, allow 1 hourCost: Juniors £35 per lesson / Seniors £55 per lessonAvailability: Lessons can be organised for weekday afternoons and early evenings.

| What is the ARKS Test? Drivers have to obtain an MSA licence before taking part in competitions. In order to gain a licence a driver must take an ARKS (Association of Racing Kart Schools) test. The test consists of both a written test and a practical driving test and lasts approximately three hours. The test can be arranged and taken at Bayford Meadows once the required standard at the school has been reached and further details will be given to the driver as and when it is felt appropriate. |
