Hooton Park Circuit sits on the former Hooton Airfield near Ellesmere Port, offering arrive-and-drive sessions, corporate Grand Prix events, and owner-driver practice on an MSA-standard track using Biz Prokart chassis with Honda engines.

πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

Families with children who want a genuine karting circuit rather than a leisure-centre track will find the driving quality here hard to beat. Staff actively help younger or beginner drivers during sessions, making it accessible for children. The access road is a consistent issue - drive slowly and expect rough ground on the approach.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Drive very slowly on the access road - pothole damage is severe and can affect cars and trailers
⏰The cafe is open on weekends only - bring snacks or a packed lunch for weekday visits
🎟️Staff will help younger drivers during sessions between faster kart groups
πŸš—Arrive-and-drive sessions are available without advance booking at quieter times

β€œ2024 and 5 years later and it's still like driving over the moon trying to get on site, the toilets however have had their 2019 refurbishment..... **-Original Review-** Great little track Staff on track are friendly (helped us getting out little one out for sessions between the faster karts) Β£50 full day, Β£40 half day (non members) Toilets are on site but cafe only open weekends My only gripe is, it's like driving over the moon getting into the siteπŸŒ™ with some potholes deep enough to swallow 10" trailer wheels and ground the trailer chassis”

β€œFantastic service from David and Terry today. They identified an electrical issue on my boy’s kart, but more importantly a potential engine seizing issue. Very astute and professional analysis from the guys that has saved us a fortune. Thumbs up from us for Modus Motorsport.”
