The local kart racing facility is all electric. Lots of fun to drive, and a 
much more pleasant experience than a gasoline-powered kart ride...I don't think 
even the most diehard of petrolheads likes the sound of a kart engine, so the 
low noise level is a definite plus. It's an indoor / outdoor track that they 
can shorten to just the indoor portion during inclement weather, and they don't 
have to worry about ventilation to do so. No mess to clean up. And the charging 
cables hang from overhead the staging area, so every kart starts every race 
with a full charge -- and the attendants only have to plug in the cable, not 
mess with fuel.

In short, all the fun of driving a kart without any of the downsides.

Highly recommended for anybody who likes to drive, young, old, whatever.

Electric karts: 'safer but with more acceleration'
]

YOUNG thrill-seekers can have a go on England’s first electric go karts for
children – at Acton.

Eight of the karts can be used on TeamSport’s futuristic track in Allied
Way, off Warple Way, for those aged 8-12 to enjoy.

The eco-friendly karts are intended to get more children involved with motor
sport and promise a ‘fast, thrilling, yet safe’ experience for Formula One
fanatics.

Dom Gaynor, managing director of Team Sport said: “The new karts are far
cleaner and quieter than your average petrol version, yet offer superior
acceleration, which is something our customers really look for in their
karting experience.

“We are extremely passionate about getting more children involved in motor
sport and hope to raise awareness that many high-profile racers start their
careers in go-karting.

“With Formula E recently introducing the world’s first fully-electric racing
series, it means we will start to see battery-operated vehicles play a much
bigger role in motor sport.”

The track, which opened in August, is a short drive from Westfield shopping
centre. Book online at www.team-sport.co.uk/west-london
