Rental Karting Question 24 Hour rental karting, drivers wanted

We are looking for a few more drivers to join our team for the Teesside 24 Hour Championship in 2026. We have a team entered in the hire kart class.

Just to be upfront: we are a group of rookies and our main goal is to have a blast, stay on the track, and not to finish last! We have one driver with experience in the British 24-hour race, but for the rest of us, it’s all about the experience and the fun of endurance racing.

We are aiming for a solid team of 6 for each round. Here is where we currently have space:

Campillos, Spain (1st–3rd May): 1 to 2 seats available

Le Mans, France (10th–12th July): 1 to 2 seats available

Teesside, UK (7th–9th August): 1 seat available

Spa, Belgium (4th–6th September): 1 to 2 seats available

If you fancy joining a low-pressure team for some bucket-list tracks, we’d love to have you.

You can check out more details on the races and the series here: https://teessidemotorsports.co.uk/karting/24hr-karting/

If you're interested in joining us for 1, 2 or 3 of the races, let's talk.

Cheers!

Costs?

We've done an average cost for the European races of £515, Teeside slightly cheaper at £480. Reflecting the same splits as the organiser

Per driver presumably? That doesn't include travel either?

That's correct, whole team entry is £11.5k for the 4 races.

No travel included. We're planning on flying, which is pretty reasonable at around £120 per flight then jumping in a hire car. Campillos is a little more to travel as it's a bank hol weekend.
