Zwartkops International Kart Raceway is the newest world class international kart circuit in Africa. Situated on the R55 west of Pretoria in Gauteng.
The circuit is just over 1000m long and a minimum of eight metres wide. The start/finish line is on the 180m-long 10m wide main straight, and is 90m before the first corner. The first two corners are 12m wide to reduce first lap congestion. A unique feature of the new circuit is the Bridgestone Flyover, where the circuit actually crosses over itself. The sloping terrain of Zwartkops lends itself to great spectator viewing points and promises the drivers a challenging roller coaster ride.
The karts used are CRG Spitfire’s powered by a 270 cc 4 stroke engine that can see speeds in excess of 70 km/h! Thankfully the karts also have disc brakes. Karts and safety equipment (helmets) will be provided, but it is compulsory to wear long pants (preferably denim) and a long sleeve shirt and jacket are recommended. Also remember to wear appropriate closed shoes.
Driver Requirements
• Driver’s licence (responsible teenagers may be allowed)
• Long sleeved shirt, long pants, closed shoes
• Crash helmets are provided, but you may bring your own if you prefer.
Please register as soon as possible and pay your amount in full and send proof of payment to [email protected] as we have to confirm the final numbers and pay in full at least four days before the event. In addition, we as BMW CCG have to pay a R5,500 damage deposit. If you damage a kart, the repair cost will be for your own account. So please, drive sensibly.
Terms and conditions – Participation at your own risk plus repair cost of any damage to karts will be for your own account.
