One track in Herefordshire runs team building events. The appeal is that karting is a genuine leveller: seniority stops mattering the moment the lights go out.

Stourbridge, Birmingham and the West Midlands
Full Throttle Raceway is an indoor karting venue on The Stourbridge Estate off Mill Race Lane in Stourbridge, a short drive from Dudley, Halesowen and Birmingham. Two separate tracks share the building, giving over 400 metres of circuit under one roof.
Broughton Hackett, Worcestershire
March Hare Leisure is an outdoor, floodlit kart circuit at Broughton Hackett, a few miles east of Worcester off the A422, sharing a site with shooting ranges, archery and other outdoor activities.
Drivers share a kart and swap over across an hour or more. Far better for building a team than everyone racing individually, and often cheaper per head because it is priced per kart.
Most operators take card on the day. Fewer will invoice a company on thirty days, and it is worth asking before you commit.
Meeting or dining space on site turns half a day into a full one and saves moving everybody twice.
Height, weight or medical limits will rule someone out. Sites with a simulator or a second activity handle that gracefully.
