A few first-time questions.
One less thing to wonder about before you head our way.
See all FAQsDo I need to know anything about karting?
No prior experience or rental membership is required. Before you go on track, staff will explain the basics, the flags, and how your session works.
Should I book ahead, or can I walk in?
Booking ahead is recommended. Walk-ins depend on available space and rental operating hours, with reservations taking priority. Check the calendar and available sessions before traveling.
How long should I plan to be here?

Can my friends and I drive together?
Let the staff know you'd like to drive in the same session. They can help with the request, but being placed together depends on session space and isn't guaranteed.
