So much fun

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with kids old enough and tall enough to meet the junior kart height requirement — confirm the minimum height before visiting as younger children cannot participate in racing. The Paddock Lounge and arcade give non-racing family members something to do. Weekend afternoons are busiest; weekday visits move faster.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Check the minimum height requirement for junior karts before bringing younger children — it's enforced at check-in

⏰Purchase race sessions online in advance to avoid wait times, especially on weekends

🎟️Junior races are not available late on Friday and Saturday nights — plan accordingly for family visits

🚗The Paddock Lounge accepts walk-in diners, making it easy to extend the visit with a meal
