From the reviews
We just went for the first time and had a great experience! The staff was very attentive with a positive, educational mindset. My daughter was very nervous before her first race, but came out of this experience wanting to go again!
We had a great time at K1 Speed in Richmond. If you're a bit of an adrenaline junkie, then this will be right up your alley. The racing, the speed, the drifting, and the competition are all a part of what makes it so enjoyable.
For one of my birthdays, I highly recommend because you can drive go kart and race against your friends. If you bring them there and around the lobby area, they have a race car that was in a race parked right there so you can take your picture next to it the staff were very nice and there were some safety rules about…
So much fun for the little kid inside of you, it brings him out.(I'm 45) Great place to go if you are an adrenaline junkie. In reality it's not that fast, but you sure feel like it is because of the size of the track. The more people you bring in your group, the more fun it is. ALL GAS, NO BRAKES!
