Royal Ascot has its charm – the hats, the dresses, the polite clapping as a horse you didn’t bet on takes the win. But if you’re looking for something a bit more hands-on this summer, why sit back and watch when you could be in the driver’s seat? It’s time to trade your silks for a racing suit, and swap the manicured lawns for the adrenaline-fuelled karting track you’ll find at your nearest Teamworks Karting location. After all, why settle for watching horsepower when you can unleash your own?
Putting the Kart Before the Horse
Horses are majestic, sure. But when was the last time a horse did a perfect racing line through a chicane? Karts? They go exactly where you point them – fast. At Teamworks, our karts carve corners with surgical precision, letting you tackle every bend like a pro. They don’t get spooked, they don’t mind a little bumping, and they won’t nibble your handbag. No need for feed buckets or stables here – just suit up, buckle in, and let ’er rip.
Dress Code
Ascot’s dress code is basically an exam in millinery. For women, it’s no spaghetti straps, full-length skirts, “modest” necklines, and an entire fascinator balancing act. For men: suit, tie, polished shoes, and the vague but ever-looming fear of being turned away at the gate for “inappropriate cufflinks.” At Teamworks Karting, we keep things simple. You get a race suit and a helmet. Wear what you like underneath – we won’t judge. And let’s be honest: you look cooler in a racing helmet than you ever will in a top hat.
Bubbles
Let’s talk fizz. Yes, Royal Ascot has champagne. So does your nan’s anniversary party. At Teamworks, we serve something stronger: adrenaline, speed, and that unbeatable rush when the lights go green. That’s not to say we don’t appreciate a good drink – we’ve got an onsite bar, where you’re welcome to toast your victory – after the day’s racing is done. But the real thrill? It’s behind the wheel, not behind a flute of overpriced bubbly.
Spectator Sport
At Ascot, you stand. You clap politely. You squint. And if you’re lucky, you catch a fleeting glimpse of a horse-shaped blur. At Teamworks, you’re in the race. Every lap is yours to win, every driver a rival, every corner a chance to take the lead. Whether you’re going head-to-head in a Grand Prix format, racing the clock in a Karting 30 session, or getting the squad together for a Stag & Hen Karting Party, you’re not a bystander – you’re part of the action.
Booked and Blessed
Planning a day at Ascot involves spreadsheets: tickets, transport, outfits, lunch reservations, umbrellas (just in case), and endless WhatsApp group drama. At Teamworks, booking is as smooth as a perfectly timed overtake. Pick your date. Choose your race format. Get instant confirmation online. Done. No faffing, no dress codes, no hoping the trains aren’t on strike. Just you and your crew, locked in for a day of competitive, fast-paced fun that takes five minutes to plan.

If you want a summer day out that actually gets your heart racing, Teamworks Karting is where the real horsepower lives. Whether it’s a birthday, a stag do, a family day, or just a good excuse to get competitive – we offer more action, less standing around – and no horses. 🏎️🏁
Men’s Health Week falls right before Father’s Day, which is perfect timing if you ask us. It’s the ultimate excuse to round up your dad, brother and mates – and hit the track for a bit of friendly chaos. There’s nothing like the buzz of the track, the scent of victory (and burning rubber), and the bragging rights that come with shaving milliseconds off your lap time.
Yes, health is important. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. Not everything has to be kale smoothies and mindfulness apps. Sometimes, good health starts with getting out, switching off your brain, and hammering it round a hairpin bend like you’re qualifying for Silverstone.
You’ve probably heard it before: men don’t talk enough. But here’s what the science says – connection isn’t just nice to have, it’s essential. Studies show that strong social ties can lower stress, reduce the risk of depression, and even help you live longer. And while deep chats over a pint are great, connection doesn’t always have to be heart-to-hearts. It can be side-by-side, doing something fun. Shared experiences build bonds, boost mood, and remind us we’re not in this alone.
Whether you’re dealing with deadlines, nappies, noisy neighbours or endless group chats, life has a habit of piling up. Men often put themselves last on the list – sometimes to the point where stress, burnout and disconnection sneak in without us even noticing. That’s why Men’s Health Week is here: to remind us that looking after ourselves doesn’t have to mean overhauling our lives. It just takes one small step. Ideally, into a go-kart.
Here’s why karting hits the mark for Men’s Health Week:
You’ll get moving: Yes, it’s fun – but it’s also physical. Your core’s engaged, your heart’s racing, and your reflexes are working overtime.
You’ll reconnect: Mental health thrives on connection. Karting’s a brilliant way to hang out without the pressure. Less awkward small talk – more overtaking.
You’ll blow off steam: There’s something therapeutic about flooring it on the straight and nailing a corner after a long week.
Whether you’re the world’s most competitive person or just in it for the post-race banter, karting is a guaranteed mood-booster. It’s a chance to reset, re-energise and remember that looking after yourself doesn’t have to be serious business.
Plus, it’s a cracking Father’s Day gift. Instead of another pair of novelty socks or a pack of craft beers, why not give Dad an experience he’ll remember? (And let him try to beat you on the leaderboard – try being the key word.)
So this June, do yourself a favour. Book a session, grab your gang, and race your way into better health – without even realising you’re doing something good for yourself. And what better way to do something than by tearing it round a bend with your mates, the wind in your helmet, and the finish line in sight? Check out our Father’s Day deals, bring your crew, and start your engines. Stress doesn’t stand a chance 🏎️🏁

For Father’s Day 2025, it’s time to leave socks and aftershave in your dust, and give your Dad something he’ll really get a kick out of. Dads, famously, love cars. From James Bond to Formula One, if there’s one thing all Dads can agree on, it’s that going fast is very cool – and a day out at Teamworks Karting is the perfect way to give the gift of speed, excitement, and a bit of healthy competition.
With our state-of-the-art racing simulators, heart-pounding karting tracks, and immersive laser tag arenas, Teamworks Karting is the perfect place to give your Dad his Bond for the Day fantasy. Plus, there’s an onsite bar for a celebratory pint – and if we’ve learned anything from Father’s Day cards, it’s that Dads love beer.
Whether your dad is a seasoned speedster or trying karting for the first time, Teamworks Karting’s professionally designed circuits deliver a dose of pure adrenaline. Our electric karts are fast, clean and powerful – ideal for dads who enjoy a little pedal-to-the-metal action. Race side by side as a family or challenge Dad to a time trial and find out who’s really the fastest in the family. And with venues across the UK, you’re never far from a Teamworks track that’s ready to put your Father’s Day into high gear.
But the fun doesn’t need to stop just because you’ve taken your helmet off. Step into a neon-lit battle zone with laser tag – a brilliant way to team up or face off in a tactical game that gets everyone’s heart pumping. Picture your Dad crouching behind a sniper hole, or army-crawling up one of our ramps. Funny, right? No – this is serious. Your Dad is James Bond, actually.
Or maybe he’s not James Bond. Maybe he’s Michael Schumacher. For the dad who’s always dreamed of racing Le Mans or mastering Monaco, our racing simulators deliver all the thrills of motorsport with none of the risk. Featuring real F1-style setups and cutting-edge graphics, it’s as close as you can get to the real thing without a pit crew – especially since our simulators use the same technology that real F1 drivers use to train.
After the action, settle into our onsite bar and raise a glass to Dad. Whether it’s a post-race pint, a cold soft drink, or a snack to refuel, our welcoming bar areas are the perfect spot to unwind, trade race stories and soak up the atmosphere.
Still not convinced? A Teamworks Karting gift voucher makes an excellent Father’s Day present. Whether it’s a standalone treat or part of a bigger day out, vouchers can be used for karting, laser tag, or simulator racing. It’s flexibility, fun, and full throttle, all in one neat package. You can order them online and have them sent instantly via email, making them a brilliant last-minute option too.

This summer, the thrill of Formula 1 is speeding from the circuit to the cinema with the release of F1, starring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris. From the same director as Top Gun: Maverick, the film has been produced in collaboration with seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, and promises a rare, behind-the-helmet look at life on and off the track. If the trailer’s anything to go by – tight corners, explosive overtakes, and white-knuckle tension – they could have reached out to the Teamworks Karting team as consultants.
–
In F1, Pitt plays a former driver coaxed out of retirement to mentor rookie talent and compete against the fastest racers in the world. But what truly sets this film apart is its authentic feel: real F1 cars, real circuits, and filming during actual Grand Prix weekends.
The result is a cinematic experience that mirrors the adrenaline and intensity fans know and love. And while most of us won’t be trading paint with Max Verstappen anytime soon, the film is set to remind us that racing is about more than just speed. It’s about instinct, strategy, and connection. It’s the same thrill that awaits you at Teamworks Karting. Because after the credits roll and your heart’s still racing, the only thing better than watching the action is living it.
At Teamworks Karting venues, we’re passionate about bringing the spirit of motorsport to life across our UK-wide venues. Whether you’re a newcomer or a seasoned speedster, our professionally designed indoor circuits offer the perfect place to put your reflexes to the test. Feel the G-force in high-performance karts, master hairpin turns, and race against your mates for bragging rights – all in a safe, competitive environment.
Bring your team for an all-out Grand Prix event, set your fastest lap in a time trial, or start your kids on their very own karting journey with junior sessions. We even offer corporate packages and exclusive track hires, so you can channel your inner F1 hero without the Hollywood budget.
With the movie putting the spotlight on the intensity and precision of elite racing, our cutting-edge simulators let you live that world first-hand. Available at select venues, you can experience the same software used by professional F1 drivers to train. With full-motion rigs, professional steering wheels, and authentic racing pedals, you’ll feel every corner, bump, and gear shift as if you were on the real grid. Race legendary circuits, push your limits, and compete against friends in the same style of training used by real motorsport teams.
The F1 film reminds us why we fall in love with racing in the first place: it’s about pushing limits, chasing perfection, and the rush that comes with every corner taken just right. At Teamworks Karting, you’re not just watching that story – you’re writing your own.
Don’t be surprised if you leave the cinema this summer with a need for speed. When that moment hits, we’ve got your helmet ready. Book your next race at Teamworks Karting and turn the silver screen into the start line. 🏎️🏁

Karting
Nothing beats the feeling of nailing the perfect overtake or shaving seconds off your lap time. If you think karting is just about speed, think again – this is about control, precision, and knowing exactly when to make your move.

Got a competitive streak? Settle it on the track. Just in it for the fun? Nothing wrong with leaving your mates in the dust while you’re at it. And if Mum beats you to the finish line, well… better luck next time.
Laser Tag
If you prefer tactics over throttle, the laser tag arena is where the real mind games begin. It’s fast, unpredictable, and rewards sharp reflexes just as much as smart strategy. If you think it’s just a game, think again – laser tag is all about quick thinking, accuracy, and staying one step ahead of the competition.
Think you’ve got what it takes? There’s only one way to find out.
