Tier One Karts

At Darwin Kart Hire, we pride ourselves on offering only the best. That’s why we don’t use tiered or lower-performance karts—our entire fleet is built for maximum speed, safety, and fun.

We operate 20 Italian-designed Birel Art Ricciardo karts, powered by Honda GX270 RXU 10hp 4-stroke engines. These karts are among the fastest hire karts in Australia, Race Engineered to be safe, reliable, tough while importantly being fast with great handling.

Every kart is maintained to professional racing standards. We use precision wheel alignments and setups specifically developed to maximize grip on racing tires, ensuring both safety and high performance every time you hit the track.

Our karts are perfectly suited to our 1035m circuit, where you’ll feel the rush of G-forces in the corners and the thrill of pure acceleration on the main straight.

Best of all—no governors, no restrictors, no limits. The only thing between you and the checkered flag is your skill and determination

It allows parents the chance to take kids out who might not yet meet the minimum age to drive themselves. Minimum age for a passenger is 4 years old

You might want to take your older kids out to show them the correct racing line or show the girl friend how fast you think you are

People with disabilities who might themselves not feel confident to drive can ride along and now also enjoy the thrills of karting.

Junior Karts

We also have 4 Junior Karts, these karts have fully adjustable seat position steering wheel height and pedal position to cater for kids not yet big enough or confident for our Tier One karts. minimum height 120cm minimum age 7yo. These new karts are smaller and lighter to steer easier for young drivers and run very quite.

Note some very small drivers may not be able to operate these karts, we can asses there ability once they are here. if required we can electronically restrict the maximum speed, we have a range of Junior sized helmets from small to large, if the smallest helmet is too small you will need to supply your own helmet or wait till the driver is bigger

Minimum age to drive yourself is 7 years old

Challenge Kart
If you feel you are fast enough to get your name on the FASTEST board (at your specific weight) you can buy a 10 min session in our Challenge Kart, it is about 3 seconds a lap faster than our Tier 1 Karts

If you you want to challenge your mate at “The Same Weight” we can ballast up the kart to equalize weights
