The Abbey National Karting Club was formed, on 28th August 1996, by a number of employees working at the Abbey National Data Centres in Milton Keynes. The main aim of the club is to enable us and our colleagues to enjoy the excitement of kart racing at a reasonable cost and at regular and frequent intervals. Because we are interested in maximising the amount of time spent on the track racing, while at the same time minimising the cost, we tend to be more interested in endurance type events than sprints, but we do also take part in sprint events.

The main activity of the club centres around a series of races at our local track, Daytona International, in Milton Keynes. We also utilise a number of other circuits for club events, and enter as teams or individuals for open races at a variety of venues. Club parties have visited tracks from Kent to Cornwall and Scotland, and as far away as Dubai. Club members have taken part in events ranging from short indoor sprint meetings all the way up to outdoor 24-hour endurance races.

We welcome drivers of any ability level. We actively encourage newcomers to the sport, providing them with whatever advice and encouragement we can and helping them to improve, and run most of our club races using a handicap system so that anyone can stand a chance of winning a trophy. However, we can also provide some serious opposition to anyone who thinks they are hot!

Membership of the club is open to any employee of the Abbey National group in the Milton Keynes area.
