The Track Layout

- Scale: As the largest track of its kind in the country, it features wide lanes for safe overtaking, long straights, and a variety of technical corner complexes.
- Environment: Being electric, the track area is clean, quiet, and free of the gas smells typical of older indoor tracks.
The Karts
The venue operates a modern fleet of electric karts that deliver instant power.
- Adult Karts: For drivers 5 feet (1.52m) and taller. These machines are capable of speeds up to 55 kph (34 mph). With instant electric torque, the acceleration out of corners is immediate and thrilling.
- Junior Karts: For drivers 4 feet (1.2m) and taller. Speed-capped at approximately 35 kph (22 mph) for safety. Uniquely, adults can also drive these karts, allowing parents to race side-by-side with their children on the same track.
