Paramedics tried to revive him for more than an hour after reaching the area but were unable to save him.
The dead man’s wife had stayed at a villa where the man and his family were staying in Cala En Porter in the south of the island.
The alarm was raised around 3pm this afternoon.
The drama happened at an outdoors go-kart track called Castillo Menorca which describes itself online as the holiday island’s largest of its kind.
It is on the main Menorca NE1 road between Ciutadella and Ferreries.
It was not immediately clear if the Brit lived on the island or was holidaying there.
Police have yet to make any comment and a post-mortem is expected to take place tomorrow.

THE HISTORY OF PENNEYS
THE Penneys brand grew from humble beginnings on Dublin's Mary Street, where it opened its first store in 1969.
Known as Primark outside Ireland, the company was the brainchild of Garfield Weston, who hired Dubliner Arthur Ryan to make his vision reality.
Penneys branched into the UK in 1973 with its first store opening in Derby. The UK now has 191 Primark stores in total.
However, the Penneys name could not travel to Britain as the American retailer JC Penney had the right to use the name in the region.
And in 2006, the expansion into Europe began with an opening in Spain, followed by the Netherlands, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, Austria, France and Italy.
Primark went Stateside for the first time in September 2015, with the opening of a store in Boston. There are now 27 stores in America with branches in Florida, Brooklyn, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The retailer’s opened its largest store in Birmingham in 2019.
It spans five floors and features Primark’s biggest beauty studio to date, a barbers and three restaurants.
Designers hailed the blue and white printed dress piece as a “style elevator”.
According to the retailer: “Bring some movement to your wardrobe with this paisley print maxi dress.
“Cut to a flowy silhouette, it comes with a soft round neckline, short puffed sleeves and a tie detail at the neck for a relaxed finish.
“The gathered waist adds shape while the tiered skirt adds movement to every step.
“Designed in a white paisley-inspired print against a rich blue base, it’s finished with a decorative border print at the hem for extra style elevation.
“Whether you’re heading to brunch or packing for a getaway, this dress is ready to go!”
