New to Karting, Fancy a Go?

All new drivers who attend KartMania '09 who want to get into the sport head directly to the centre of the arena to the "new for '09" Karting Magazine Information Centre. Here, help and advice will be given out by the professionals to guide you to the relevant stands and people that can help you find your way into karting!

KartBoot '09

The Kartboot is available on both days of Kartmania '09, at a cost per day of £25 per car or £35 for a car and trailer or medium van (ie Transit). Please contact me for commercial costs. You can sell all new or secondhand equipment and spares provided that new parts are over 3 years old and not currently being sold within the main show. This is an ideal way to sell your old karting gear if you are changing class or retiring completely from racing, this year the Kartboot promises to be bigger than ever so take advantage of this unique way to sell or buy secondhand spares.

KartMania '09 Has a New Venue

KartMania has moved to the Ricoh Arena, a new central location, easier to find, only 9 miles away from the previous venue and 5 minutes from junction 3 of the M6. With its superb facilities, this will take the show to a new level, while still offering exhibitors outstanding value for money. The Ricoh Arena will be home to the event for the foreseeable future.

The purpose built Jaguar Exhibition Hall is 6000sq. metres and will accommodate both the exhibition and Kart boot in 2 separate areas. This is the third year of KartMania and it is still purely for karting - there are no bikes or cars, just karts,

Kartmania organiser Martin Capenhurst quotes "We're trying to attract new people into the sport as well as those who already know about us and with the move to the Ricoh Arena, we are hoping for our best event yet." Check out their web site to find out more: www.ricoharena.com

Neil Clayton, Managing Director of Doodson Motorsport said 'we are delighted to be involved with Kartmania. This is part of our long term plan to invest in Karting and to build our company brand. Our business has been involved in insurance for all aspects of events and sports for over 40 years and we are very keen to get involved more in the Karting sector. We want to become known as the preferred insurance provider for Karting and to do this we appreciate we need to build partnerships at all levels of the sport and its infrastructure. We provide cover for all areas of motorsport, personal insurance and corporate and commercial insurance. Our core value is to invest some of the money we earn back into the sport. If we deal with a race team, a circuit, a sponsors business insurance we will always give some of our earnings back to be reinvested in the sport'.

Martin Capenhurst promoter of KartMania would like to thank Doodsonn Motorsport for supporting KartMania '09, it is good to see a company invest money into the sport and I wish them well this year and hope the joint support we can offer each other will benefit all in karting.
