Rage Buggies in Oxford

Strap in tight.. the infamous Rage Buggy experience

The ultimate adrenaline activity, off road karting at its best with the famous Rage buggy. These buggies have been built with one thing in mind - fun, and lots of it.

Designed to take on some serious terrain, they are used by rally schools and in off road races throughout the world. Get behind the wheel of these awesome machines at our Bournemouth activity centre, where we have four purpose built off road circuits.

We don't do simple oval tracks at Max Events, so come and test your driving skills as you control the drift through the bends, and feel the acceleration as you exit onto the straight sections.

You have to work hard to keep these vehicles firmly on the track, so its only those with the skill and a cool head who will be crowned best driver on the day.

Rage Buggies Frequently Asked Questions

How does the activity run?
You will receive 2 rage buggies for the session. We offer practice and then timed competition. We don't run head to head races as the equipment is built to be bigger and faster than other vehicles used at other centres. We want you to experience the drive, if you want grand prix, go go-karting instead!

What is the minimum/maximum group size?
We do not have a minimum number but a group of 6 and under, we reserve the right to mix you with another party (up to a group size of 12). Our maximum group size is 12 people, if your group size is larger than this we may run with more vehicles and, or provide you with more time, or dependant on your activity choice you will be split over 2 or more activities.

How long does the session last?
Each activity runs for 1 hour in Oxford. If you just book the rage buggies, that will last for one hour. If your group size is over 12 people we will either split you into 2 teams or more, or provide more time. In certain circumstances such as a small group where your health and safety could be at risk from over confidence, we may reduce this time. Alternatively if you are acting beyond what Max Events, or our instructors deem safe/acceptable, you will be asked to leave the activity. No refunds will apply for misuse of equipment.

How long will I be on site?
This is dependant on the package booked but we ask that you arrive half an hour prior to the start of your activities, and you will need at least 15 minutes from when the activities have finished to getting in your car.

Minimum age
No driving license is required but drivers must be 18 and over.

Maximum weight
The buggies have plenty of power but if you're over 20 stone it can be a squeeze to get in and out. It can depend on your build but 20stone is really the limit.

Am I insured?
Max Events carries £5 million public liability insurance. This covers us and you in the event of our negligence. You are provided with all instruction necessary to complete the activity safely, if you operate any equipment beyond your ability or the boundaries that we provide you will not be covered, it does not cover you for acts of stupidity or if an incident arises beyond our control.

Can we operate in any weather?
Unfortunately we cannot control the weather. In most cases we work very hard to ensure your event runs smoothly and with the required activities in your booking. If we feel we have a health and safety issue we would try and make contact in the week prior to your arrival and offer some alternative suggestions. In extreme circumstances on the day we may have to offer an alternative activity which carries an equal or greater value.

Will I get dirty / Do you provide overalls?
This is dependant on the weather. Hot and sunny you will get dusty, wet and you will get muddy. We do not provide overalls for each individual person, we do have a range of overalls for sale on the day, prices start at £2.00 and in most cases this is enough to keep you relatively clean.

Do you provide gloves?
No but if you require we may have some in stock to purchase.

Do I need specific footwear?
Either trainers or walking boots are a must. You must wear shoes that will not fall off, and that cover the whole foot, i.e no flip flops.

Can I bring my own helmet?
Yes if it conforms to European standard.

Do I have to wear a helmet?
Yes in all circumstances to comply with our insurance helmets are compulsory.

Can I wear fancy dress?
Yes, so long as it does not have the potential to be caught in any moving parts, does not impair vision, means you are still wearing the correct footwear and can wear a helmet and also maintains a level of hygiene for the next person. Please ask prior to arrival to avoid disappointment.

Do you provide any safety equipment?
Yes we provide all necessary safety equipment for each activity, as outlined by our insurance obligations.
