Club100 is suitable for all motorsport enthusiasts. All are welcome. We offer a variety of formats, together with a range of classes to suit the novice first timer, up to the experienced racer.
Drivers can race with Club100 from the age of 14 years in the year of their 15th birthday. You can also enter a test session at the age of 14.
Yes. Club100 are affiliated with Motorsport UK, the Uk’s governing body. We run under a restricted licence which is specifically designed for Club100.
The licence is free of charge. We will send you the licence application form when you register online.
Then that’s fine, you can use this licence to race with Club100.
An official test (ARKS) is not required. However, if you are moving up from indoor or outdoor corporate rental karting, we will need to evaluate your performance during one of our test sessions.
f you are a novice first timer and never raced a 2 stroke kart previously, you must enter a 30 minute test session. This does not mean that you can’t enter a race at the same time. The test is purely to assess that you are happy and we get the chance to check out your ability.
If you have a proven race history, then it is fine to enter a race without the need to test.

Our friends at Dartford Karting offer good deals for Club100 racers. However, you can also go to GPR, Demon Tweeks or KKC.
All of our championships implement minimum racing weights. For example, the minimum racing weight limit in our Lightweight Sprint Championship is set at 78KG.
If you weigh below this limit, then you will need to add lead ballast to your Kart.
We carry with us a stock of lead ballast, which we can lend to you on the day at no extra cost. However, we do insist that drivers that race on a regular basis purchase their own ballast. The ballast is specific and can only be purchased from Biz Karts / 020 8443 3300.
The other option is to add ballast (flat sheet lead) to a seat insert. For full details and assistance, please contact John Vigor on 01795 883592.
