Go-kart track software: bookings, waivers & leaderboards

Go-kart tracks: booked, waivered and racing. Leaderboards that bring them back.

Waivers signed on a clipboard at the desk, sessions sold out by lunch and lap times printed on a slip that ends up in the car park. We build booking, waiver, timing and leaderboard systems for go-kart tracks that all talk to each other, then we host them and look after them.

Looking for go-kart booking software that handles waivers, heights and lap times?

A go-kart track is a ride, a party venue, a corporate events business and a racing club all on the one strip of bitumen. Most tracks juggle a booking widget, a waiver tablet, the timing system's own software and a spreadsheet for the leagues. Every Saturday the desk ends up retyping names from one into the other while a queue of eager ten-year-olds builds out the door.

Wollopit builds custom go-kart software around how your track actually runs. Racers book a session, sign the waiver and confirm their height online before they arrive. Names flow into your timing system so the grid is ready. Lap times land on a public leaderboard and in each racer's profile. Parties and corporate days quote, take deposits and build their own run sheets. We connect the timing and POS you already trust and look after the lot on our own servers.

The big ones

Your whole track, on one system.

These are the systems tracks ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.

Bookings & waivers

Booked, signed and height-checked before they leave home.

Racers pick a session, choose their kart class and sign the waiver in one flow. Height and age rules are checked before payment so the desk just scans a QR code and sends them to the briefing.

  • Junior, senior and dual karts
  • Height and age rules at booking
  • Waivers signed during checkout
  • Guardians sign for minors once

  • Weather cancellations in one tap

Timing & leaderboards

Every lap saved. Every racer chasing a better one.

We connect to your timing system so lap times flow into racer profiles and public leaderboards the moment a session ends. Results land in their phone by SMS and the waiting area TVs show who's quickest today.

  • Racer profiles with every lap
  • Personal bests and improvement
  • Daily, weekly and all-time boards

  • League heat draws
  • Points tables and handicaps
  • Live championship standings

04How it changes

Before and after

A Grand Prix party, wolloped.

Here's how a Saturday birthday party could change. Every track is different, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Party booked over the phone and written in a diary
  2. Twelve kids arrive and queue for the waiver tablet
  3. One kid's too short for the junior karts
  4. Staff retype every name into the timing system
  5. Lap times printed on slips that end up in the bin
  6. A parent emails on Monday asking for the results

After

  1. Party booked online with food and a deposit
  2. Every guest signed their waiver from the invite link
  3. Height checked at booking so they're on the right kart
  4. Names flow straight into timing and the grid's ready
  5. Results and a podium card land in every parent's phone
  6. Kids keep checking the leaderboard and book again

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your go-kart track: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend a busy Saturday at your desk and in the pits, then work out what's actually holding up the grid.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your sessions, kart classes, waivers, timing system, parties, leagues, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually waivers and bookings first, so you get a win before the school holidays.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks on a race day you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things go-kart tracks ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can racers see their lap times online?

Yes. Times flow from your timing system into personal racer profiles and public leaderboards, with results sent by SMS or email after each session.

Can parents sign waivers for their kids before they arrive?

Yes. The waiver is part of the booking. Guardians sign once for each minor and returning racers are already on file. Party guests get their own waiver link.

Can it check height and age at booking?

Yes. You set the rules for each kart class and the booking only offers sessions a racer qualifies for. Staff still do the final check at the desk without the surprises.

Do we have to replace our timing system?

No. If SMS-Timing, ClubSpeed or another platform is running your track well, we build around it. If it's holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.

Can it handle corporate events and Grand Prix formats?

Yes. Groups get quotes and deposits online. Heats, finals and podium results are built into the run sheet for your marshals.

What happens when rain closes the track?

Cancel the affected sessions in one go. Every booked racer gets an SMS with a link to rebook or take a credit.

How much does a go-kart track system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like online waivers or a leaderboard can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most go-kart tracks we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
