St Eval Kart Circuit Reviews Summary

Track and Circuit

Pros:

• "Excellent circuit and setting. Good value too!"
• "Impressive track. Didn’t expect it to be that big."
• "It's a great outdoor track and it's fabulous they cater for all ages."
• "This is the best karting track in Cornwall. Nice long track, well run and quick process time from arrival, to moving to the karts."
• "The track is long and varied and ideal for all."
• "Great track with fast and technical corners to keep you on your toes."
• "The track is long with a good mix of long straights and curves."

Cons:

• "Pretty lame. The circuit is too large and fast for the smaller karts to be any fun."
• "Booked online as instructed, cadet track is nothing like the advertised track online!! Update your website!! don't mislead people."
• "Currently circuit divided in half so not so interesting."
• "When the actual racing took place they halved the already small race track which was a little disappointing."
• "The track itself is nice and flowy but perhaps lacking in any technical corners."
• "About my 5th visit now, it’s a great track very fast but they have cut the track in half now to 800m and it’s pretty boring and not technical."

Karts

Pros:

• "Karts quick enough just watch out for the kids as you pass them."
• "Nice long and challenging adult track and the karts were well maintained."
• "Thunder karts... seem to handle better as well."
• "Go karts are fast and grippy."
• "Love this place. Definitely go for the faster carts."
• "If you've done it before then pay the extra £2 and get the 70mph karts, not only are they faster but stick to the track a bit better."

Cons:

• "Very disappointing karts, one session and he gave up. Way to under powered for the size of the track."
• "They scammed my brother by giving him a 120 cc when he was supposed to get 200 cc and we didn't get our money back."
• "The karts as so varied some are ok but some at poorly maintained the speed difference can be considerable."
• "The kart was number 63, and I would say it was dangerous."
• "Lose 1 star as the 'family' karts were old and tired and nothing at all like the image on the website."
• "Karts are a bit dodgy in places they could do with being speed tested so are all equal."
• "All the carts were so slow you couldn't even take over. So I don't recommend this place as it was boring and they scammed us."

• "All the staff really friendly and helpful and we would highly recommend."

Cons:

• "Great experience for all, get your driving thrills fulfilled. Great karts & super track."

Cons:

• "What's the point in a go karting track that you're banned from going fast on and pushing your limits."
• "Price can creep up if you want to be there longer than an hour."
• "Would go more frequently but found it quite expensive otherwise I would have booked another session."
• "10 mins for 16 pound is definitely a rip off."
• "Great track but didn't get the full ten minutes on track."

Facilities and Amenities

Pros:

• "Lockers available."
• "Take your own refreshments at the moment though."
• "Parking is free and so are spectators and it's all outdoors so no worry of being too close to people."
• "Lots of areas to have a picnic and watch the drivers."
• "What a fabulous time we had on the course today, safety was top priority from kiddies through to adults! Best bit was the food cabin."

Cons:

• "The karts could be cleaned every day as when I sat in the kart I dragged finger up the side panel and there was black dirt and it was thick."
• "The gloves, they were soo dirty a few people refused to wear them."
• "The visors on most of their helmets are really badly scratched."
• "Facilities were lacking, only have a vending machine and coffee machine would benefit from a small cafe serving teas and chips I think as the place is in the middle of no where and I was starving but despite this we had a fantastic time."
• "You really could do with a little refreshments bar or shop rather than the vending machine. And a little more seating for the spectators."
• "The only downer and somewhat strange thing is there are no snacks to buy."
