Of the six F9 circuits, one was built around groups rather than laps. Go karting Sector 59 Gurgaon means an 850-metre circuit that takes up to twenty karts at once and runs the only sixty-minute sessions on the network. If the booking is for a birthday, an office outing or a league night, this is the circuit the other pages point you towards.

Here is what it is, what it costs, and how it compares with the two circuits a group is most likely to consider instead.

Go karting Sector 59 Gurgaon: what the circuit is

Sector 59 sits on 850 metres of track, which is short by the standards of the network but nearly twice the 450-metre Link Road loop. The length matters because it changes what a session feels like: 850 metres is long enough that a driver has to choose a line rather than simply point the kart at the next turn.

The grid is the number that defines the venue, however. Twenty karts is the largest capacity F9 runs, and it is why this circuit is described as the group venue rather than the fast one or the central one.

The rates

Published rates are per driver and include 18% GST.

• Weekday: 10 laps ₹900, 15 laps ₹1,100.
• Weekend and public holidays: 15 minutes ₹1,100, 30 minutes ₹2,100.

Groups are priced per kart for the whole grid, and the per-driver figure falls as the grid grows.

• Six karts: 30 minutes ₹11,500, 60 minutes ₹19,500. About ₹1,917 a driver at 30 minutes.
• Twelve karts: 30 minutes ₹20,500, 60 minutes ₹35,500. About ₹1,708 a driver at 30 minutes.
• Twenty karts: 30 minutes ₹31,500, 60 minutes ₹51,500. About ₹1,575 a driver at 30 minutes.

The sixty-minute option is the one this circuit can offer and the others cannot, and it is the reason a group that has driven before tends to book here.

Why capacity matters more than lap length

A group booking fails in one of two ways: too few karts, or too many people watching. Twenty karts solves the first problem completely, because a group of eighteen or twenty can all drive in the same session rather than in two waves.

The second problem is solved by the layout. A spectator at an outdoor circuit watches from the barrier, and an 850-metre lap gives them something to watch for longer than a short loop would.

There is a third effect that only shows up on the day: a big grid makes the session social. Twelve colleagues spread around 850 metres are racing each other rather than following a leader, and the conversation afterwards is about who got past whom rather than about the queue.

Which groups this circuit suits

• Office outings of twelve to twenty. The grid size is the whole argument. One booking, one briefing, everyone drives.
• Birthday parties with a large guest list. Only drivers need a kart, so a party of thirty with twenty drivers fits comfortably.
• League nights. Sixty-minute sessions give a group enough track time for two rounds of heats, which a thirty-minute slot cannot.
• Families with teenagers. Twenty karts means the adults can drive too rather than standing at the barrier.
• Small groups who want a long session. A group of six can book the whole 60-minute slot and get more time each than they would at a busier circuit.

What it does not suit is a single driver wanting a quick run. For that, the Sector 17/18 Link Road loop is shorter to reach and cheaper to book.

How it compares with the alternatives

Against Sector 17/18, the difference is capacity and format. The Link Road circuit is 450 metres with a single six-kart package, and it is the easiest circuit to reach from central Gurgaon. Sector 59 is nearly twice the lap and four times the grid, which is why it takes the group bookings.

Against Sector 68, the difference is the opposite. Sector 68 runs 1,050 metres, the longest lap in Gurgaon, and takes twenty karts as well. A driver who wants the longest possible run chooses Sector 68. A group that wants sixty-minute sessions and a circuit built around the booking chooses Sector 59.

The rates are close enough that the decision usually comes down to travel and format rather than price.

Getting there

Sector 59 sits on the eastern side of Gurgaon, reached from the city through the Golf Course Road corridor rather than the older Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road route that leads to the Link Road circuit. That makes it a longer drive from Cyber Hub and Iffco Chowk, and a shorter one from the Golf Course Extension side.

Because the circuit is built for groups, arrival is part of the plan. A group of twenty arriving in a convoy needs somewhere to assemble before the briefing, and the venue handles that as part of the booking. Confirm the meeting point when you book rather than on the day.

What to confirm when you book

Four questions, in the order that matters.

First, how many karts are being held for you. A group rate is quoted against a kart count, so a headcount that moves after the booking changes the price.

Second, whether the session is thirty minutes or sixty. At Sector 59 the difference is roughly 60% more money for double the track time, which is the best value on the sheet if the group can fill it.

Third, whether the whole group is driving or whether some are watching. Only drivers need a kart, so spectators cost nothing.

Fourth, whether anything beyond the driving is included. F9 birthdays and group events are built to order rather than sold off a fixed menu, so food, cake and decorations are discussed when you enquire and priced with the package.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the Sector 59 circuit?

850 metres. It is the second shortest of the six F9 circuits, after the 450-metre Link Road loop, but it carries four times the grid.

How many karts can run at Sector 59?

Twenty. It is the largest grid on the F9 network, and the reason this circuit is used for birthdays, office outings and league nights.

What does it cost for twenty karts?

Thirty minutes is ₹31,500 and sixty minutes is ₹51,500, inclusive of 18% GST. That is ₹1,575 and ₹2,575 a driver.

Does Sector 59 run sixty-minute sessions?

Yes. It is the only F9 circuit with a sixty-minute option, and the only one that can give a group two rounds of heats in a single booking.

Is Sector 59 indoor or outdoor?

Outdoor. All six F9 circuits are outdoors, which matters if the date falls in the monsoon and the session cannot move.

Where to go next

See the Sector 59 circuit page for the booking line, compare all six circuits on the tracks page, or read the birthday cost breakdown if the group is a party.
