This was our second visit here after a year. Family friendly place especially if you have some kids. Some good Covid precautions were in place. Would suggest taking 15-20 mins between kart rounds to disinfect steering wheels and seat areas if possible.

Super awesome special fun if you are 6 years old. If you are an adult, not so much. You go around in a circle. Again and again and again and again. A circle. No corners. No turning the steering wheel. Just a slow rotation, around and around and around and around the small circle. No Big Ben, no Parliament. Just a tight rotary that every out of state driver should be required to negotiate. Around and around with no blinkahs. Welcome to Massachusetts. A circle. No variations.

Ventured down to the Cape this weekend, and back to our long-time favorite Go-kart track! Had to wear a mask in line, but no big deal. The kids and I had a great time! A true Cape classic!

This place was such a disappointment. Went with a group of six where there was no social distancing being practiced. I asked the girl if we could wait as the line was quite crowded and she said no I don’t have a phone to call you when it’s your turn as she was holding onto a cell phone in her hand. Go-carts were not wiped down in between drivers. When I asked The attendant To sanitize the golf carts he came out and wiped down each one with the same wipe. This is definitely not a place to go to if you intend to keep your children safe from the coronavirus. Not a place that I would recommend at this time

Review №13

Would not go back! With so many go cart options in the cape it is probably better to go elsewhere! Staff totally rude and not helpful! Save your money and go to Cartwheels 3 miles away!!

HORRIBLE! Slow! this was super slow, my snail can go faster than that! I am mad, waste of money. Where is the zero star option?

Great place for kids and adults. A Cape Cod attraction that spans generations. Check it out.

Great experience and no extra charge for a child when using a 2 seater.

Review №19

$6 per person, maybe 10 minutes? Not a very exciting track, but a good distraction for kids and adults. Kids need to be 54 inches to drive by themselves.

Good for small kids. Just a small circle racetrack.

Awesome experience! Reminded me of my childhood, would highly recommend!

Review №25

Simple fun track for families. Good price at $7/ride. Kids who dont meet height requirements ride free with an adult, which is great. Very friendly staff with a safe environment for kid riders. Plan to squeeze it in with other errands, events, or dining because its a quick fun experience with just the track as its main feature. Families should definitely pit stop here!

Review №26

Some good old fashioned gas-powered go carts. Not as fast as I would like but the kids enjoyed them. There are definitely some carts that are a little bit faster so watch them carefully and pick a few you want. It’s $7 a ride btw and it lasts a good 8-10 minutes.

Review №27

Run down but good for younger kids as cars are slow. $6 for about 10 minutes.

Review №28

Remember coming here a while ago. Owner/Employee would cut the controls to my cart whenever I was going to pass his kid, claiming “I was bumping their cart” (total bs). Half the carts are run down and don’t break 6mph, staff and owner are rude. Give this place a pass

You definitely gonna have fun.

Review №30

Its a no-frills, straight forward place to ride in go-karts. No contact with other cars is allowed, which is fine, but not every car is the same: some are very slow, some are very fast. Nothing you can do about it. But the kids enjoyed.

Jo
Review №31

The family all enjoyed the adventure. It is the highlight of the 7 grand kids annual summer trip to the Cape. We have been doing it for years and afterwards a trip to Sundae School for ice cream finishes off the evening.

Its go karts. Just Have fun. Not cheap at $7 per ride. Our gas cap came off and splashed gasoline. Not cool. But, weve been going for 35+ years

My
Review №43

We have been coming here for over 20 years and it still is a great time for the kids. Bud has operated the business for over 50 years and still does an outstanding job!

Review №44

Great spot for some family fun. The kids running it could be a little more pleasant but otherwise this is a return spot for us every year.

Service is good, ride could be a bit longer.

Review №46

Look, this place is a throw back (my 70yr old father came here!). Sure the track is small and the carts are old but my 14yr old still had a blast and loved the fact that you can drive off road because the corners have no barriers!! Enjoy it for what it is...

Sp
Review №47

Big ring track not much thrills, slow karts. Good for kids and young ones not so much for adults. Price was decent. If you have kids take them here, if no kids go elsewhere. Would give 2.5 because they are a Pokemon stop. EDIT: downgraded to 1 star since the owner is an ass.

Price keeps going up, now $7 per person per ride. Not worth the cost.

Average. The performance of individual karts varies enormously and when you get a really slow kart it sucks. The track is also just circular, no twisties.
