    You can go to any of the kart tracks and run it around for a couple of hours,I don't know what the cost is but its nothing outlandish,as long as you have your own kart,and a helmet of course,I don't know where you are from,but there's athboy in meath,tynagh in galway,kiltorcan in kilkenny,watergrasshill in cork and edgeworthstown in longford,they are the main ones,if you google ''kart tracks'' you'll be able to find their exact location.

    Whiteriver Park is outstanding if you are in the North East area. If not, Pallas karting in Galway, Watergrass Hill in Cork, or Kiltorcan in Kilkenny. Any of them are great. If you want to go up north, Nutts Corner is a great track. Super 1's were there today.

    Often they will let you out between "hire-kart sessions". Call the track ahead of time to see what bookings they have and it'll give you an idea.
