WE APPREIATE YOUR BUSINESS ALLIANCE GROUP Hi Nick, just wanted to say again thanks for the great day, everyone's still raving about it. Cheers Peter Ward (Personnel Manager) Alliance Group LTD. Nelson (Bathurst) NELSON MAIL We have been to Pro Karts twice now for our work functions, each time it has been such a good way to bond or 'get one over' your work mates. Everyone that raced found it extremely exciting, it brought out the competitive streak in everyone, even the quietest people in the office. Nick and the team were very accomidating and the whole race was professionally organised and safe. I would suggest this for any workplace to truly get to know each other. regards Justine (Nelson Mail Social Club President) (Bathurst 200) PRIVATE FUNCTION Hi, that was an awesome experience, I have been to a lot of different functions/events around the country over the years, not only was your event a lot of fun but it was the most professionally run one I have ever attended. Thanks Guys Mark Johnstone, AUCKLAND (Bathurst) BARTERCARD NELSON Hi Nick Thank you so much for your hospitality and organisation for the first annual Bartercard Ford v Holden Bathurst race. It was thoroughly enjoyed by clients and staff alike. I would recommend that any business who are planning a team building or perhaps corporate client function get in touch with you to custom make an event to suit the companies requirements. We look forward, as do our clients, to next years race where I am sure that Ford will be victorious! Kind regards, Rachel (Bathurst with catering) CAN PLAN STAFF FUNCTION It was with much excitement and expectation that the staff and partners at Can Plan met at the Pro Karts Track in December to begin our Christmas Work Function. There had been a lot of BIG TALK back and forwards in the staffroom and on the RT about who was going to be Champion for the day. It was no surprise when a couple of the staff members initially emerged as the ones to beat. Issie was at the top of the leader board going into the final with the best place on the grid, and all through the laps he looked like he had it in the bag… until (Murphy’s law) the last lap it went all wrong (he says he was pushed)… Mike’s Partner, Charmaine breezed past, followed by Ben, then the boss himself. We are very pleased to say that Issie went on to enjoy Scotty’s Gourmet BBQ at Plan B (which was superb, with a relaxing atmosphere and great cocktail menu - cheers Steve) with only a few quiet conversations about how the racing will be different next year! (NZGP event) RADCLIFFE ELECTRICAL We have been to Pro Karts a number of times over the last months, to organised events and also to have some fun just doing laps with mates. All the organised events from the Grand Prix sprint races to the Bathurst endurance events are all very well run. Everyone comes away with a smile and can’t wait for the next track session. We have found it a great way to earn a few brownie points with customers and staff alike, just bloody great fun. A great place to sort out the men from the boys when it comes to driver ability, would highly recommend anyone to give it a go, we will be back there again in the near future. Thanks Nick, well done. Regards Vaughan Radcliffe Electrical, Richmond (NZGP & Bathurst) JAE SERVICES “We have used ProKarts grand prix style racing as a mid winter “pick-me-up” event for our staff for 3 years running now. Nicks team are professional, really making sure you all have a good time and play along the formula one role with lap times, grid starts and podium finish. This year the winners got bottles of bubbly which was a great bonus too. Nick gives out a trophy which is carried with high regard by the winning staff member as bragging rights until the following year! Highly recommended for businesses looking for something a bit different from the usual after works drinks and to create a bit of zing amongst the team that lasts well after the final lap. Good work Nick and co!” Cheers Andrew Smith JAE Services, Tahunanui (NZGP event)

- RACING TIPS | Pro Karts & Nelson Fun Park
Get ahead on the track with expert racing tips from Pro Karts at the Nelson Fun Park! Discover pro techniques, karting strategies, and insider advice to boost your speed and confidence today. Top Karting Tips to Improve Your Lap Times BOOK THE FUN KARTS TODAY BOOK THE PRO KARTS TODAY Always brake in a straight line before entering a corner. Go-karts have rear brakes only, which means if you brake while turning, the kart can easily spin out. Always slow down before the turn while your wheels are straight to maintain control. Brake early, accelerate early – “In slow, out fast.” Approach corners with gentle braking and smooth acceleration. Entering a corner too fast will cause you to slide or drift, which will slow you down significantly. Remember: drifting may look cool, but it’s not the fastest way around the track. Correct a slide with control. If your kart begins to slide, ease off the throttle, apply opposite lock (turn the wheel in the direction of the slide), and regain control before entering the next corner. Smooth driving and precise steering are key to consistent lap times. Use the full width of the track. To carry the most speed through a corner, follow the racing line: enter wide, clip the inside apex, and exit wide. Creating a larger radius allows for smoother and faster cornering. Fine-tune your racing line as you improve. Once you’re consistently smooth and fast, experiment with slightly tighter corner entry and exit points to reduce the total distance per lap—while still maintaining strong exit speed. This can shave valuable seconds off your lap time. Apply throttle with control. Avoid slamming the accelerator. Instead, squeeze the throttle smoothly to prevent wheel spin and maintain traction. Sudden power delivery—especially mid-corner—can cause you to lose control or spin out. Thanks for reading our karting tips! Put these techniques into practice and see your lap times drop. Whether you’re racing for fun or chasing the podium, smooth and smart driving always wins.
