2024 BIKC REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN
We want to start by saying both a massive welcome to those returning to BIKC and to those entering their first-ever competitive karting season with us this year!
The 2024 British Indoor Karting Championship is an experience for all. Taking place across TeamSport’s indoor tracks, including: five categories, four rounds and fantastic prizes to be won!
BUT IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT WHO CROSSES THE LINE FIRST
BIKC was created as a grassroots-level karting competition. It was built to make karting more accessible for everyone, regardless of their experience or background. All whilst nurturing the next generation of racing talent.
You don’t need to worry if you feel like you’re not the fastest on the track, or that you need to be more experienced to take part. We’ve had new karters achieve fantastic results in the National Finals, it all depends on what you’re willing to give to get there.
So, whether you’re a cadet prodigy wanting to be the next F1 star, a seasoned pro looking to attract the attention of scouts and sponsors, or a beginner recently hooked on the adrenaline that only racing can give.
BIKC is for everyone.
However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few rules you need to abide by to compete. All of which can be found in our Rules & Regulations.
The most important rule is that you MUST have a valid Motorsport UK K-I Licence and a TeamSport Elite Membership / under 16’s will need a Race Academy Membership. Membership will need to be renewed if set to expire during the competition to continue competing.
The membership cost is £34.99, and it won’t just get you a UK K-I Licence but also amazing karting discounts so you can get that extra practice at discounted rates.
All the information you may also need can be found on the BIKC website.
BIKC will kick off June 1st with qualifying at your local tracks, so make sure to head down and put in your best times, your top three times will be used to see if you get through to the next round.
Remember. Register now, and we’ll see you soon.

Navigating the Podium: Strategic Driving Tips for the British Indoor Karting Championship
Welcome back to the British Indoor Karting Championship’s blog, proudly brought to you by our esteemed prize sponsor, Total Karting Zero. As the anticipation for another heart-pounding Local Final builds, we’re here to equip you with essential driving strategies that can make all the difference in your pursuit of victory. Today, let’s delve into the world of racecraft, highlighting the art of overtaking, patience, and calculated aggression.
- Set Realistic Targets: Aim High, but Be Strategic
It’s a given – every racer on the grid wants to taste victory. However, setting achievable goals is essential for both growth and consistent performance. Instead of solely fixating on the top step of the podium, consider where you stand among your competition and set a realistic target for your finishing position.
Remember, each race is an opportunity to refine your skills, learn from experiences, and progress towards your ultimate goal. By aiming for a position that challenges you without overwhelming you, you’ll ensure a measured approach that contributes to your overall success.
- Patience in Overtakes: Timing is Everything
Overtaking is a thrilling aspect of racing, often synonymous with heart-racing moments and adrenaline-pumping manoeuvres. However, the key to effective overtaking lies not only in skill but also in patience. Rushing into overtakes without a clear strategy can lead to unnecessary collisions and lost positions.
As you approach slower karts or competitors, assess the situation carefully. Identify opportune moments – sections of the track where your kart’s strengths can be maximised. Analyse your rival’s weaknesses and capitalise on them when the time is right. By biding your time and waiting for the perfect opening, you’ll increase your chances of executing successful overtakes and advancing through the ranks.
- Calculated Aggression: Finding the Balance
Aggression on the track is not inherently negative; in fact, it can be a potent weapon when used wisely. However, it’s vital to strike a balance between aggression and control. Going too aggressive too early in a race can lead to early exhaustion of your resources, both in terms of kart performance and your own energy.
Work with the karts around you to create a space for yourself to manoeuvre. Engage in strategic battles, defending when necessary, while also conserving your kart’s power and handling. Once you’ve positioned yourself optimally within the pack, you’ll be in a better position to make a decisive move toward the front.
- Timing Your Glory: Seizing the Opportunity
The final piece of the puzzle is seizing your chance at glory. With patience, calculated aggression, and a clear understanding of your competition’s strengths and weaknesses, you’ll find yourself in prime position to make your move towards the front of the pack.
When the moment arrives, unleash the skills you’ve honed, capitalise on your rivals’ vulnerabilities, and accelerate towards the lead. Your strategic groundwork and well-timed manoeuvre could be the turning point that propels you to the podium’s highest step.
As you prepare to unleash your driving prowess in the British Indoor Karting Championship, keep in mind that while speed and technical skill are essential, a calculated approach can often be the game-changer. Total Karting Zero stands beside you, ready to fuel your aspirations with every lap.
So, set your sights on that realistic target, master the art of patient overtaking, wield calculated aggression, and time your surge to glory. The track awaits your strategic brilliance – let the race begin!

Debunking Myths: Unleashing the Excitement of Electric Karting at the British Indoor Karting Championship
Welcome to the British Indoor Karting Championship’s myth-busting blog, proudly presented in partnership with our esteemed prize sponsor, Total Karting Zero. In this post, we’re stepping into the electrifying world of electric karting, dispelling the misconceptions and revealing the heart-pounding, adrenaline-fuelled thrill that awaits every racer who takes the wheel of an electric kart. Buckle up as we uncover the truth about electric karting’s exhilaration and unique sensory experiences.
- Myth: Electric Karts Lack Excitement
Reality: Electric Karts Deliver Unrivalled Excitement!
One common misconception is that electric karts lack the adrenaline rush that their petrol counterparts provide. On the contrary, electric karts offer an electrifying experience that’s every bit as heart-pounding and captivating.
The instantaneous acceleration of electric karts demands a deft touch on the throttle. The surge of power propels you forward, requiring finesse and precision to maintain control. Far from being dull, this characteristic ensures that every second spent behind the wheel is brimming with excitement, testing your skill and reflexes in ways that will leave you breathless.
- Myth: Electric Karts are Silent and Dull
Reality: The Symphony of Tyres and Crowd Cheers!
Another myth is that electric karts lack the auditory stimulation of roaring engines. In truth, electric karting delivers a sensory experience that’s uniquely captivating.
While the rumble of an engine might be absent, electric karts allow you to hear the symphony of the track. The squeal of tyres gripping the surface, the hum of the electric motor, and the exhilarating rush of wind as you navigate corners – these are the sounds that accompany your high-speed journey. Furthermore, the cheers of the crowd add a vibrant energy to your race, spurring you on to conquer the track.
- Myth: Electric Karts are Slower and Less Competitive
Reality: Speed and Competition Redefined!
Some sceptics might believe that electric karts are slower, diminishing the competitive edge of the race. In reality, electric karts are engineered to deliver impressive speeds, rivalling their gas-powered counterparts.
Electric karts offer instant torque and consistent power delivery, resulting in quick acceleration and impressive lap times. This ensures that the thrill of competition remains as fierce and intense as ever, with racers battling for positions, strategising overtakes, and pushing their limits to secure victory.
As you gear up for the British Indoor Karting Championship, remember that Total Karting Zero stands at the forefront of electric karting excellence, ready to showcase the exhilaration and performance potential of electric karts.
So, debunk the myths and embrace the reality – electric karts are a dynamic and thrilling force to be reckoned with. The acceleration, the symphony of sounds, and the competitive fervour are all part of the unparalleled experience that electric karting brings to the track. Get ready to feel the surge, hear the chorus, and relish the cheers as you embark on an electrifying journey to championship glory!
