Get ahead on the track with expert racing tips from Pro Karts at the Nelson Fun Park! Discover pro techniques, karting strategies, and insider advice to boost your speed and confidence today. Top Karting Tips to Improve Your Lap Times BOOK THE FUN KARTS TODAY BOOK THE PRO KARTS TODAY Always brake in a straight line before entering a corner. Go-karts have rear brakes only, which means if you brake while turning, the kart can easily spin out. Always slow down before the turn while your wheels are straight to maintain control. Brake early, accelerate early – “In slow, out fast.” Approach corners with gentle braking and smooth acceleration. Entering a corner too fast will cause you to slide or drift, which will slow you down significantly. Remember: drifting may look cool, but it’s not the fastest way around the track. Correct a slide with control. If your kart begins to slide, ease off the throttle, apply opposite lock (turn the wheel in the direction of the slide), and regain control before entering the next corner. Smooth driving and precise steering are key to consistent lap times. Use the full width of the track. To carry the most speed through a corner, follow the racing line: enter wide, clip the inside apex, and exit wide. Creating a larger radius allows for smoother and faster cornering. Fine-tune your racing line as you improve. Once you’re consistently smooth and fast, experiment with slightly tighter corner entry and exit points to reduce the total distance per lap—while still maintaining strong exit speed. This can shave valuable seconds off your lap time. Apply throttle with control. Avoid slamming the accelerator. Instead, squeeze the throttle smoothly to prevent wheel spin and maintain traction. Sudden power delivery—especially mid-corner—can cause you to lose control or spin out. Thanks for reading our karting tips! Put these techniques into practice and see your lap times drop. Whether you’re racing for fun or chasing the podium, smooth and smart driving always wins.

We proudly support local schools, charities, and families in need with experiences, vouchers, and community initiatives all year round. PROUDLY GIVING BACK ACROSS NELSON AND TASMAN. CONTACT OUR HELPFUL TEAM Giving Back to Our Community At Pro Karts and Nelson Fun Park, giving back is a core part of who we are. Our business has always been about people, memories, and supporting the community that supports us. Since day one, we have believed that the best way to make a difference is by opening our doors and sharing our activities with those who need them most. We proudly offer discounted visits to all local schools and work closely with a wide range of charities and community groups, including the Lions Foundation, the Salvation Army, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Tahuna Community Hub, and many others. Every year we donate a large number of vouchers to help families who are struggling, especially around Christmas. We also provide many smaller donations throughout the year. From raffle prizes for fundraisers to support for school events, sports teams, individuals facing sickness or hardship, and a variety of community causes, we always aim to help wherever we can. We are also proud of our ongoing partnerships in the community. We support Waimea College through their attendance recognition programme, offering rewards and encouragement for students with high attendance records. This year, we are going a step further by opening the Fun Park for a few hours on Christmas Day exclusively for selected families in need. Our goal is to create positive memories for children and parents who deserve a special moment during a challenging time. We give back in the strongest way we can. Many businesses give money, which only goes so far. We prefer to give in kind by offering experiences, vouchers, activities, and entire days for free. Recently we hosted Big Brother Big Sister for what was planned to be a two hour visit, but the group enjoyed themselves so much they stayed for three or four hours. That is the type of impact we aim for. If you are fundraising for a school, sports team, charity event, or trying to support a family or individual in need, we encourage you to reach out. We always do our best to help where we can.

Powered by Honda 200cc engines with 2-to-1 reduction gearboxes, these high-performance karts deliver smooth acceleration and precise handling on every lap. Featuring a race-tuned chassis, hydraulic brakes, and adjustable seats and pedals, each kart is designed for comfort, control, and speed. Surrounded by a high-tech plastic bumper system for added safety, our RT8s run on saka moto tyres for maximum grip and are equipped with Racefacer lap timing and safety control to track your performance and keep racing conditions safe. For ages 12 and up, and under 120kg, this is as close as it gets to real motorsport—no licence required. FUN KARTS SODI LR5 FOR ALL AGES - SAFE, FAST & FAMILY FRIENDLY Our Kids’ Karts are perfect for young racers aged 7 years and up, offering a safe but exciting ride. Powered by Honda 160cc engines and governed to a top speed of 25km/h, they’re ideal for building confidence while still delivering a real sense of speed. With a maximum driver weight of 100kg, they’re suited for most kids and younger teens. Adults can join in the fun too with our Adult Fun Karts—slightly larger, just as fun, and built so the whole family can race together, and for those who aren’t quite ready for the Pro Karts. These karts also use Racefacer lap timing and race safety kart control, so everyone gets the thrill of racing while staying safe on track. Maximum driver weight: 120kg. Perfect for families, birthdays, and first-time racers—nobody misses out on the action at Pro Karts. TWO SEATER SODI GT2-RK4 SHARE THE THRILL Perfect for younger kids or those not quite ready to drive on their own, our Two Seater Karts let you share the excitement of karting with your child. These karts are powered by Honda 200cc engines, governed to a safe top speed of 25km/h, and fitted with the same Racefacer lap timing and race safety kart control used across our fleet. The driver must be an adult 18 years or older, with a maximum weight of 120kg. Passengers must be at least 3 years old, and generally up to around 8 years old, depending on their size, as the passenger cockpit is compact. It’s a fun, safe way to introduce young kids to the world of racing—without missing out on the action. A great option for families wanting to race together and create lasting memories on the track.
