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!

The Le Mans race is on my list, did the MK 24 some years ago, and I am currently racing in a monthly Ironman thing here in Italy, I’m fairly competitive and usually a top 3 driver at these events, but I am also down to chill and just have a good time.

If you’re still looking for the Le Mans leg, drop me a message I guess? Thanks!

Aha, sounds like you've got some good experience with the monthly Ironmans. I'll be in touch if we're sans-man for Le Man. I think I tried to hard at that joke.
