Unleash Your Inner Racer at K1 Speed
As one of the largest karting centers on the west coast, K1 Speed provides European style racing with up to 80,000 sq ft. of race track in their indoor racing center, as well as a 10,000 sq. ft. lobby, which overlooks the track, a pit café and a gaming area.
Reaching speeds of 45mph, the karts are high performance and emission free and, combined with the asphalt race track, will give you a much more authentic experience than you’ve probably imagined.
Whether it’s your first time or you’re already an old pro, aim to win the fastest time of the week or of the month, with the ProScore ranking system, which ranks you against all the racers in the facility. If you don’t feel ready to compete with too many people, drop in to race against the clock or against a friend. A detailed print-out of your scores, position and ranking will be given to you at the end of each session.
For safety precautions, the karts are computerized to give the pit crew a chance to easily able step in to stop the kart or just reduce the speed if necessary.
In addition, before beginning, it is mandatory to go through a safety training, where you will learn how to operate the kart, what each flag is for and what the safety signs mean.
Height requirements to race are 4’11 – 7’ and under 300 lbs. Racers must wear close toed shoes. A head sock and helmet is also required and will be provided for you.
Group packages are available and K1 speed will also host parties, so whether it’s a birthday or a bachelor party, you’re sure to have the day of your life.
