Visited this Circuit for the first time last Saturday and having raced at over 30 circuits it is certainly in the top 3 and possibly the best in the UK. The staff are very friendly although I felt a little over safety conscious for the regular driver, and the event was fairly and slickly organised. The best thing about this... More

The best day out we have ever done! Our hour session was really well organised and included 20 minutes track time - which is about 15 to 25 laps depending on how fast you go. After registering we were kitted out with a body suit, balaclava, helmet and gloves, before a quick briefing. You'll need to wear trainers and, as... More

Visited here through a works Christmas do, it was excellent. Only been to indoor tracks before and was shocked at the difference. The girls in the group thought it was a little to quick for them, so not for the non drivers or faint hearted. Will be going back soon with the lads. More

some of the karts are really terrible, the rest are just poor. Winning the race is down to luck of the draw on the karts, not driver skill. More

Our firm booked a karting event as part of our Christmas celebrations so 34 of us made our way on a cold and dark afternoon to the venue past millennium point about a mile out of the city centre. It was a kind of surprise and although we knew it was karting we assumed it was in a warehouse and... More

I visited Grand Prix Karting as part of a stag do. There was 16 of us in our party so I thought that might be a bit cramped.....how I was wrong!!!! The track is massive, I have been to a few indoor circuits and enjoyed them but this place is just some thing else. There is just a massive sense... More

Birmingham Wheels International Circuit was a really nice and friendly place. 70mph ish karts which were great. Went as a stag group and we had a 5 min qualifying then 30 odd min race. The track was very good, one of the best tracks I have raced on. The only disappointing thing was just a personal view that the additional... More

Went with work and had an evening race at this circuit. The circuit is very large, with some great fast corners. I would reccomend a visit. More

What a find. When I was invited on a corporate event with an address just one mile from Birmingham City Centre I was expecting the usual circuit in an old warehouse. When I drove in I couldn't believe my eyes. This is a pupose built MSA Race Circuit with well kept super fast race karts called Birmingham Wheels Karting Centre... More
