From the reviews
My wife wanted to come here for her birthday! A great track to ride and reasonably priced. We came from PA, so we're not locals. If you wanted a fun trip with the family this is a pretty cool place.
This was a fun outdoor activity, it's very safe to ride in the karts and drive in the race lanes. I could go full speed or a little slower whichever speed I disired. The karts maximum speed was below 30m/h and that's cool for a sport in which adults and kids can enjoy.
Took my husband back here for his birthday after being away for almost a decade when we used to bring our kids. The nostalgia of the track, the fast go karts, and the breeze blowing in your face was just the right amount of fun.
We have been taking our son and a couple friends here for his birthday for the last few years. Well my son lost his lap tickets and the young man let him continue to ride with his friends until they were all out of tickets. It was really nice of him to do that and I appreciate the kindness.
