I have 3 sons and they love racing cars.
They raced 07/03 and were thrilled.
They went back on 07/04 unfortunately my youngest son Angel got sick and wasn't able to finish his race, yet the people who worked there helped him without hesitation.
You all were AMAZING,.. I wanted to go back and give my thanks but my son was not able to leave the hotel room anymore, next day we left early back home RGV Texas.
Thank you once again, u all were awesome!!!!response / report this review -

That was an absolute
fun expeience. We came around 5pm and that heat wheeew, it was warm outside. I bought my son, 16yrs old, I thought it would help him get use to driving since he want to get his license. Good practice. The whole attendance crew was wonderful and the customer service was superb. Definitely will be back.response / report this review -

It's about 30 bucks person per race that lasts about 5 to 8 minutes.. we went on a Saturday afternoon and got right in before it got busy. It was a cool experience for sure! They have shoes you can rent for 2 bucks for the ladies that show up with sandals lol.

Stopped in at the end of a trip, was a pretty hot day in Vegas. Crew were great, yes the place isn't the glitziest, but they have it where it counts. Good karts, plenty of speed, and a nice track layout. As others have said, passing can be a bit tough here without some contact, most turns have one good line. Still, outdoor gas karting with jets overhead and the Strip in the background. Really enjoyed it, and would have gone again if I wasn't so worn out. Will be a repeat customer on my next visit, for sure.

This review will break into two categories safety and overall experience.
1. Staff here don’t monitored people bumping in to you and seriously injuring someone. Their go karts are set to idled very high and are set to accelerate even when you have released the gas pedal. This creates a problem for people who don’t know how to race. They did not check if set belts are tight or if your visor is secured and in place.
2. Karts themselves are not tuned to optimal level of control and precision. Faster does not mean better.
Staff here were very friendly and very professional the only positive remark of this location.response / report this review -

Not as fun as we thought. Place had two people working so not much help. Building was empty which was weird because it had a rock wall bating cage baseball field RC car tract food court and space big enough to put a three story hotel into it.

Definitely would recommend if you visiting or live in Vegas. They are really fast go carts and the service is out of this 🌎(world). Check Groupon for a great deal.

I race LO206 karts in Indiana and work at Fastimes Indoor Karting , so I know karting. I loved this place. The track is very technical, physical and fast. Karts seem maintained well. Steering wheel is a bit far away tho. Only problem was with no one at the front counter and had to wait a long while.
Definiately would encourage ones to come check it out!response / report this review -

Very friendly and welcoming, but unfortunately my kids were not 54' tall and they couldn't ride. So make sure your kids are above 54" tall. Great place

4 days later and the back of my calves are still in pain from the axels on their go karts being placed in a odd place. customer service is HORRIBLE. Employees are very rude. We walked in and were presented by NOBODY. We waited up front for awhile waiting to be assisted. We were in a group of 6 and asked to ride our last ride alone as a group since their track was very small. The employee I informed this information to insisted we just ride with other people .. " we are about to close any way". Ok? They were allowing over 12 people at a time causing wrecks and an unsafe environment. We just spent $300 for 15 minutes of fun and you couldn't accommodate us.way to run a business. Their stockings that go over your hair for protection of your hair smelled so bad the helmets were worn out. The track is small and in my opinion has way too many curves, not allowing you to easily and safely pass other drivers. Their locker system isn't very safe. The track is very slick causing you to spin out of control at every turn , once again making the race unsafe. The only reason this place has 5 star review is because they give you free water for a 5 star review. The only upside to this place is it being close to the strip where we were staying and the price wasn't too expensive. Overall we will not be back!
I suppose after visiting Dallas Karting Complex our standards were set high.response / report this review -

Probably the only thing in Vegas where money isn't wasted on fluf but is spent where it maters. The track is honestly built to race on, slight banks, a nice high speed chicane and most importantly fun carts. 4 stroke engines, gummy tires, rear disc brakes, enough speed to be seriously tired after one race if you're really trying hard. Truly fun and not slow!!! Really happy I went.

Great track. Very challenging. Staff was helpful and fun. Has 'old school' racing appeal.

The guy that was out watching us drive was very rude the track was slick and some of us spun out and hit each other. Not on purpose and afterwards argued with us and said that we didn't know how to drive wouldn't recommend planning this for an event for your vacation

We show at 9pm to race when they were supposed to close at 10pm and they wouldn't let us race because they wanted to leave on time. I had to bribe them with an extra $100 tip for them to let us race and he said he would throw in a prize afterwards which I thought was a trophy for 1st - 3rd place. The helmets are so old, and the karts weren't very fast, and the karts require a lot to muscle around the track. I will say for the first 5 laps or so they were still pretty fun. The prize we got was some .50 sunglasses. To top off the experience you don't get a print out of who won or had the fastest time! The Manager we were dealing with was very cool. If this track would spend some money updating karts, computers, and helmets, it could be a very cool place. The Manager did try hard to get everyone to give a 5 star review. That's the only reason I can see their over all rating isn't lower.
