1 / 2Gravity E-Karting
📍 Glasshoughton, North West
Multi-level indoor electric karting at XScape Castleford. Junior karts suit ages 8–12, adult and pro karts from 12+, dual karts let adults drive with younger passengers. Head cam hire and medals available.
Out of all the activities at Escape, this is by far the children’s favourite place to visit. They absolutely love it every time. £15 for 8 minutes is great value for money considering how much fun they have. If you’re planning to go, mornings are definitely the best time as it’s much quieter and they get more out of the experience.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Strongest for families with kids aged 8 and up who are enthusiastic about racing — several children went back six times in a single visit. Dual karts make it accessible for younger children who cannot drive solo. Arrive early and target morning slots to avoid scheduling delays.

“My boy absolutely loved this. Didn't want to go on anything else, kept going on the karts again and again. 6 times I think he did, I'm surprised he wasn't sick like. Would highly recommend. Staff were all very friendly and helpful”

“Was decent found staff informative and helpful. Yes longer would have been better for the costs.”

“It's a great arcade and a lot of fun things to do however the carting itself was quite dull and extremely short 8mins it just doesn't give it justice. The carts are cool and electric but if anyone hits anyone all the carts slow down and it can be quite frustrating when racing friends but the manager and staff are doing the best they can under the circumstances”
