Why choose RACB Karting for your weekend outing?

Forget about dark indoor tracks and overly tame electric karts. Here, you drive a 13-horsepower Sodi RT10 reaching speeds of over 85 km/h on a 1,092-metre outdoor track, combining fast straights with technical corners. It is the longest outdoor rental karting track in Belgium, approved and maintained to RACB standards.

The Spa-Francorchamps setting adds a legendary dimension to your weekend activity. Breathing in the fresh Ardennes air while driving on Belgium’s most iconic circuit creates an electric atmosphere that cannot be found anywhere else. After your session, our clubhouse allows you to share your impressions and discuss your racing lines over a drink, with a breathtaking view of the track’s corners.
