It was fun for our grandson. He was just under the height for the faster cars. So he is looking forward to that.
For anyone with competitive spirit, make sure you wait for some other racers on the track. The first time our grandson drove he was the only one on the track, it was not as exciting as he wished. So we waited until other kids came over and he then drove the second time. He really enjoyed that time.

Love this place. Way better than MB2 in Sylmar. Track is really fun and staff is very helpful. The facilities are in great shape, bathrooms were super clean and smelled great. The karts were also in great shape, the throttle cable broke on my kart in the first lap, but I think that’s rare, they switched out the kart really fast, no problem.

This place was incredibly fun. We came as a group and the staff was great walking us through things and getting us set up. You get plenty of time on the tracks and there are different race styles. You also get a nice score report print out of your laps and times, it's really cool. We also got the party package room so we got some pizza, salad, etc. It was also standard food and fare but we had an awesome time.

Great place... So much fun...
Very clean... Great staff...
Food is actually not terrible... My burger was very fresh...
Expect long waits... Expect long waits...
Or make early appointments...
Our wait on a Saturday was an hour and a half...
But it's so worth the wait...
What's great is if you get multiple rides they put on one after the other...
Stop asking staff about when are you getting on it's annoying and they can't do much about it...

Lupe was amazingly helpful and so sweet in setting up my k-1 account. I am so happy with my first K-1 experience. Thank you Lupe !!!!

Evelyn was so nice and patient in answering my rudimentary questions. John gave me driving advice to take the proper lines to get the fastest times. Thank you Evelyn and John !!

I was so happy with my k-1 experience that I bought the 500 race package which never expires. I saved over $500- in my package.
I also got a shirt and a hat as well.

Thank you so much K-1 Irvine …
I appreciate you so much.

With warmest regards,
John Choi

God bless all the energetic k-1 crew at Irvine.
You are all amazing !!!!

Fast cars even for larger people's although if you're hips are wide the carts can be tight. Loads of other fun diversions like high end VR headset games, motion simulator driving games (high end type) pool tables and of course driving. There are two courses to choose from. Loads of fun for a large age range. 14 laps, timed individually but with others on the course makes for a unique strategy for achieving fastest lap times as well as overall position ranking. Try midweek for the best deals an going as a group of 8 or more is the best way to experience this place

Really like the performance of the karts considering they are made for everyday people who might not know how to properly drive a kart.

Great experience, fun track. Karts have better acceleration than most of the K1s I've been to. Beware, you have to register for each race...not like other K1s that reg you for several at a time.

I went with a friend to kill some time. I was a little skeptical because so many reviews are from teenage birthday parties but we had a blast! The staff was friendly and helpful and I felt like the experience was a cut above other go-kart racing I've done. Definitely worth the money.

First time being here, must say its quite thrilling. The down side, there's only 2 tracks. Everything else from the cocktail lounge to the arcade is more than enough to stay entertained. The staff is very helpful and wont hesitate to guide you step by step. Bianca explained the different costs of packages, overall it was a great experience. Won't be too long till i go back.

Great Place for Birthday Parties for Teens & Young Adults!! All the employees are professional & nice.😊

Really like this track. It's a great balance that requires a bit more skill and can separate the novice from the experts quickly.

Great place to race indoor go carts. Rank based on lap time so skill counts. If you are going fast enough it's a bit of a workout. Good for groups.

This is a great karting facility. One of the best I have ever seen. It is set up as more of a lounge and relax place. With the racing set up in heats or groups so you can get some time to rest between races. Has a racing simulator. And several separated lounge areas for private groups.

Parking was easy to find and as per usual K1 is in an industrial complex so on the weekends it's typically easier to find parking.

This particular location seemed to be poorly managed. The rules weren't explained as much as other locations which made for a very poor experience. I know that you can't blame other drivers for poor experiences but if they think that their actions were acceptable then you have to blame the employees that failed to tell them the doing specific things isn't allowed. Last time I was here there was a strict rule about bumping into others or driving dangerously around others. The ENTIRE time there was others bumping into me and several other drivers. Whilst watching from the sidelines I also noticed that several other races had a lot of crashes (which slows everyone down) due to people hitting others.

Overall, for such a poorly run facility, I think that the prices should be lowered as basically you're just there to do whatever you want with a go-kart underneath you. The staff seem very disinterested in what you want and only are interested in how much you're going to spend. I'm not sure if it was just me but I wasn't getting the best feeling with this particular K1 location. I hope that other people's experiences are much better.

Very fast paced racing, unlike other go carts, not for the faint hearted.

They have two tracks at this location. Track one runs adults and track two switches between youth and adults, usually every other race. Gets very busy in the evenings and weekends, and isn't cheap.

Lots of fun... Just way too pricey. $20.00 each race.

We only participated in one race. It was fun. The other participants join in the fun by racing with you or trying to get ahead of you. Everyone does it in the spirit of fun. The surprising thing was how tired I was at the end of the race. You are so involved that you don't notice the effort you...
