The 6-minute race was very fun and exciting, only wish it was longer. For the price, you should get 2-3 races. However, we had to wait for over an hour for our race. They only race 5 people at a time and alternate between junior and adult races. The waiting area needs better and more seating. It would also be nice to have stuff to do while you wait, such as arcade games or pool tables. They have axe throwing, but it looked super chintzy and kids cannot participate. Overall, would go again when there is no wait.
We had an absolute blast at Kartona Electric Speedway on Saturday night while my son was home from college! He brought out his 360 camera, mounted it to the kart, and we were off—zipping around the track at lightning speed (with AC, thank goodness!). It was non-stop adrenaline and laughter. Best part? We used our Pogo Passes from earlier this year, so the whole experience was totally free! Fast, fun, and free—what more could you want? (Wish I could share the 360 video!)
Fun and Well-Organized Go-Karting Experience! Our kids and friends had a fantastic time here! Despite being a Saturday afternoon, it wasn’t crowded, which made the experience even better. The instructions were clear, and the track was smooth and well-designed—no unnecessary bumps or reckless drivers, making it a safe and enjoyable ride. We also had fun in the arcade and even won a cup with a free karting ticket for an adult, which was a nice bonus! Overall, a great place to hang out for some fun and excitement. Definitely worth a visit!
Visiting from out of state and looked for things to do and thought of go carting. So so glad we chose Kartona! Had such fun we went 2 days in a row. Great cars and staff and a huge shout-out to Allie (sure I'm not spelling that right)... knowledgeable and very personable. Thank you all so much!!!!
