Go Karting in Pennsylvania
Your ultimate guide to go-karting in Pennsylvania.
The Pennsylvania karting scene has entered a new era. With the permanent closure of the Pittsburgh International Race Complex (Pitt Race) in early 2026, the state's center of gravity has shifted indoors. Residents in Pittsburgh now rely on high-tech electric circuits for their racing fix, while the eastern side of the state remains a stronghold for gas-powered indoor karting in the Poconos and Allentown.
In the Pittsburgh area, the loss of Pitt Race has made Three Rivers Karting (Leetsdale) the new primary destination for serious drivers. This facility features high-speed electric karts capable of 50mph on a track known for its "flexible" layout that changes bi-annually to keep drivers challenged. Nearby in Monroeville, Full Throttle Adrenaline Park serves as a massive entertainment hub, offering high-speed electric racing alongside axe throwing and rage rooms.
In the Philadelphia metro region, reliability is key. The former Speed Raceway in Horsham has been converted into K1 Speed, providing the consistent, clean, and competitive electric racing experience the brand is famous for. For a larger family day out, Arnold’s Family Fun Center in Oaks remains a favorite, featuring one of the largest indoor electric tracks in the region.
For those who miss the smell of petrol, you must head east to the Lehigh Valley and Poconos.
- Lehigh Valley Grand Prix (Allentown): A standout facility that still runs gas-powered karts indoors. It features a 1/4-mile road course and karts that reach 45mph, offering the mechanical feel that electric tracks lack.
- S&S Speedways (Stroudsburg): A classic Poconos staple. It is an old-school indoor oval/road hybrid that has run gas karts for decades.
