Located one mile west of the Las Vegas Strip, the climate-controlled facility is home to the fastest indoor karts in the United States. It features a fully air-conditioned 1/4-mile track, adult & kids karts, and a real motorsports museum that's free to the public.

This is the thing to do for all ages. The regular races run about $30.00 per person. Great place to spend time very nice arcade on site. The track is laid out well, all the cart were in very good shape. The kids well talking about this well after we left. Make a stop when you visit Vegas.

They apparently discourage passing. The karts are too wide and/or the track is too narrow. It makes it nearly impossible to pass because they also discourage bumping other karts towards the wall. When they see something they don't like they remotely slow you down. I had more fun pulling in and out of the parking lot. Especially out!

The track is well laid out and the carts are well maintained to go at full throttle. Staff are good and very safe, if there is a wipe out, all power to the carts is lost so there arent any crashes. Good value for 3 races.

I enjoyed most of my experience at the Pole Position Raceway. The hotel pickup was professional and friendly; the sign in was relatively simple and you're quickly in the action; and the go karts are responsive and have a lot of power in them! One thing that greatly bothered me were the teenaged customers that were also there. They bump... More

There are two indoor karting companies in las vegas: the gas guys and the electric guys. We were put off by the snarky message on the guy guys' website bashing the electric guys, so we came here. I think it was a good choice. The staff is friendly and helpful to a fault. The karts are fast and responsive, and... More

I went here with a group of 6 friends...we all did the go kart racing...it's a 1/4 mile indoor track and the go karts go I think they said 40mph...so it's fast paced for an indoor short track! It was fun, but it went by way too fast! The go karts are small (so if you're tall, you'll be a... More

My brother insisted we go try this out. $60.00 for the both of us. You get one race (13) laps. You may also pay for additional races, your choice. They have electric race carts that look like mini race cars. They run approx. 45 miles/hour top speed. They have smaller version cars for children. Word of caution, if you are... More

We went as a business trip, but the racing is fun, fast and safe. All the guys enjoyed it. They even time you, so when you finish you know your position, fastest lap and who was in front of you. One of the better team socializing events I have ever been to. Well organized, good enpolyees. Couldn't tell you how... More
