Anyone been there.? Me and a few of my buddies are thinking about stopping by for a few races this afternoon.

Is it worth the money...use to frequent Davey Jones but they were gas powered karts vs. these electric ones.

Thoughts.?

I have gone a couple of times and have had a blast. Normally my boss and I will go during the week as it is less crowded during lunch time lol. Karts move really well and once you learn the track your time will improve!

It was a lot of fun. We killed time by walking to the Mexican Food Restaurant and pounded a few.

Not bragging, but I did get first place and walked away with a trophy.

If you guys go next Sunday let me know....down!

You only got first because everyone else was behind indians with bows and arrows!

Tried to go there a couple weekends ago. There was an hour and a half wait until the first race, plus they want you to "create an account" before they can even sign you up. There was a wait to get on the computer to create an account so I can wait in line to sign up to race and then wait some more.

We said screw that and went 15 minutes down the road to Track 21 and had a blast! It made me think K1 is run by the government.

You make an account so they can log all your runs on your card....



Karts @ K1 are better condition compared to Track 21 too.

what lap times?



last time we were there we could never get a solid "good group" so we always had to battle terrible lap traffic. Still got all the way into the 22's

22.7 is my best of the two races we did. It's hard to dodge all of the idiots / 12 year olds without sending them into the wall
