The e-karting track will be the second in the UK to open. The first was opened by owners Gravity just six months ago at Gravity Southside in Wandsworth and was decorated to fit a Japanese racing track theme.

The CEO and Co-Founder of Gravity noted this was a ‘pivotal moment’ for the company, adding that the company is expected to own over one million square foot of retail and high street space in the next two years- making this e-karting track just one of the new spaces set to open.
