The ultimate destination for karting enthusiasts in Suffolk.
Suffolk is the heavyweight champion of East Anglian karting. While other counties struggle with size restrictions, Suffolk boasts two of the region's largest and most prestigious outdoor circuits. Whether you are in the west near Cambridge or on the east coast near Lowestoft, you are never far from a 1,000m+ Grand Prix track.
In the west of the county lies Red Lodge Karting. Situated near Bury St Edmunds and Newmarket, this venue is the default "local track" for Cambridge residents. It features a massive 1,200m outdoor circuit that is technically demanding, combining complex infields with high-speed straights. It runs a fleet of GX270 petrol karts, offering a raw and traditional racing experience that is popular for stag dos and corporate days.
On the opposite side of the county, near Beccles, is Ellough Park. This is a serious driver's circuit, often hosting British Championship rounds. The 1,100m floodlit track is fast, wide, and professional, making it the primary destination for racers in Norfolk and Lowestoft.
For those in Ipswich or seeking indoor thrills, Anglia Indoor Karting provides a unique offering. It operates as a hybrid venue: the downstairs circuit runs traditional gas-powered karts (LPG), while the new upstairs circuit features a modern fleet of high-torque electric karts, giving drivers the best of both worlds under one roof.
