You&#8217;ll not only stay nice and dry at an indoor circuit, you&#8217;ll also get to race on a much more consistent track, which means faster lap times and a much better chance of securing a place on the podium. Surely that&#8217;s got to be better than sliding about in the rain, right?<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll get to find out how good you really are<\/p>\n<p>Forget full-throttle straights and sweeping bends, indoor tracks are all about tight technical sectors and heart-racing hairpin bends. You&#8217;ll still have plenty of opportunities to get your foot down, but the best drivers make up their time in the corners.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll get to see your mates<\/p>\n<p>Six weeks is far too long to go without seeing your mates, but if you organise a trip to your nearest indoor karting circuit you definitely won&#8217;t have to wait that long. Nobody can resist a trip to the track and with the bragging rights on the line your mates will be there in a flash &#8211; just make sure you don&#8217;t let them win!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll feel like an F1 star<\/p>\n<p>The best F1 drivers have all started their careers in karting and by taking to the track at an indoor circuit you&#8217;ll have the perfect opportunity to follow in their footsteps. Sitting just inches off the ground you&#8217;re guaranteed to feel like a real F1 star, just make sure you&#8217;ve got the speed to match!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll get to unleash your competitive streak<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s nothing wrong with a bit of friendly competition and indoor karting gives you the perfect opportunity to unleash your competitive streak. Whether you&#8217;re racing your mates or competing against complete strangers nothing beats crossing the finish line in first place.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget, when the rain does eventually stop there are some brilliant outdoor circuits to visit too.
