Born in a dockyard arch

We didn't set out to build "another karting place." We set out to fix everything we found boring about it — the noise, the fumes, the conveyor-belt laps — and to make racing feel like the best night out in South London.

In 2023, three friends — a former club racer, a sound engineer and a hospitality lifer — took a lease on four derelict railway arches behind Bermondsey station. The brief was simple and slightly mad: build a circuit fast enough to frighten you, quiet enough to talk over, and clean enough to race in a white shirt.

Eighteen months of welding, acoustic baffling and a lot of arguing about apex geometry later, Hyperdrome opened its roller door. We chose electric not because it's fashionable, but because it's better: instant torque off the line, no choking two-stroke haze, and quiet enough that the loudest thing on track is tyre squeal and trash talk.

Today we run more than fifteen thousand laps a month, host a thriving members' championship, and put on corporate days that finance directors keep re-booking. Same obsession, more karts.

What we stand for

Four things we never compromise

Speed you can feel

Electric torque hits instantly. We tune every kart to the same spec and charge them between every session, so the grid is always equal and always quick.

Safety, taken seriously

ARKS-trained marshals, a proper briefing for every driver and a no-contact culture enforced from race control. Adrenaline, never recklessness.

Timing that's honest

MSA-style transponder timing to the thousandth of a second. No fudged results — your lap is your lap, printed and emailed, and it goes on the board.

A proper night out

The racing is half of it. A real bar, real food and a room built for celebrating — because the best lap times are the ones you argue about afterwards.

The pit crew

The people behind the screens

Reece Calloway

Founder & Circuit Director

Ex-Ginetta club racer who designed the layout corner by corner. Still holds the staff lap record — for now.

Nadia Aslam

Head of Race Control

Runs every grid, every flag and every result. If your lap counted, Nadia's the reason it counted correctly.

Tom Okafor

Chief Mechanic

Keeps 28 electric karts charged, balanced and identical. Believes a clean kart is a fast kart, and he's right.

Ellie Hartley

Events & Hospitality Lead

Designs the corporate days and the celebrations. The person who makes 40 colleagues actually enjoy a Tuesday.
