Welcome to the worlds first drift kart track

Blastacars®  is the ultimate karting experience. Not to be confused with regular go karts, these are hand crafted, powerful karts that drift on purpose built, indoor tracks. We offer an adrenaline pumping experience all about getting sideways. Whether it's a booking for one or one hundred we have you sorted. If you are looking for something unique and fun to do in Auckland or Hamilton New Zealand whether it be by yourself or with a group, rain or shine, day or night then look no further than Blastacars®.

At Blastacars we have kart speeds to suit all needs. Racers need to be 8 years old and meet our tracks height restrictions (Check out the track you are interested in to learn more). Our karts are longer than average karts so larger people can fit. Smaller people we can equip with booster seats or extender pedals. Up to 12 racers can race at once, but we have race formats and facilities to take on bookings of 1 to 100 people. Our karts are sturdy and safe and Worksafe certified. All you need to bring to race is a covered shoe.

Kids Speed (For ages 8 - 12)

Blastacars are one of the few karting tracks that allow 8 year olds to race and they can even race with their parents (bookings essential and height restrictions apply). Our safe OSH certified Karts allow this with a combination of booster seats and extender pedals. We start first time Children aged 8 - 12 on our Kids speed. This is a safe and controllable speed that gives Children a taste for racing and a hint of what it feels like for a kart to drift. If Children are clearly in control and confident on this speed they will have this noted on there profiles and can then try our Standard speed karts. 

Standard Speed

The Standard Speed is in reference to our 270CC Honda Engine, Blastacars Drift Kart. This is an exciting race experience with a solid performing engine more powerful than an average Go Kart so don't think you can just hold your accelerator around the whole track! There is enough power to send your karts sliding into corners. You will need to give a good amount of counter steer and throttle control to ensure you can maintain the drift on a corner and then with a quick switch you will be drifting into the next!

Pro Speed

Our Pro Speed puts drivers behind our 390CC Honda Engine, Blastacars Drift Kart. This is a true adrenaline pumping, thrilling experience. The pure torque from the engine will give you a massive rush and the angle of drift possible from this kart is exhilarating. This is a lot of power for a kart and not easy to control which is why you need to earn a "Black Card" license to drive them. See below.

The Blastacars kart you see today has come a long way since it was first developed by Peter Zyp in Hamilton, New Zealand in 1987. Peter's determination and dedication to developing his drift kart has  seen the kart evolve into an adrenaline pumping karting experience like no other!
