Built Music City Kartplex with Betsy so Middle Tennessee would have a real outdoor karting track. Still at the counter most race weekends.

The Story
Jeff & Betsy.
Always Been
About Going Fast.
Long before there was a track, there was a family that liked going fast and having fun doing it. Rental karts on a Saturday, then race karts, then every weekend at somebody else's track, hours from home. Music City Kartplex is just what happened when Jeff and Betsy ran out of places to do the thing they already loved.
October 2016A Day Out
It was always about going fast.
A rental track, a kid who couldn't stop grinning, and dad two karts back. No plan, no track, no business. Just a family that thought going fast was a good way to spend a Saturday.

Why Shelbyville
ROOM TO BUILD
SOMETHING REAL.
A real half-mile road course needs real land. We found 34 acres in Shelbyville, an hour southeast of Nashville. Far enough out to build it the right way, close enough to be a day trip for all of Middle Tennessee.
