    This was our first time here and it was simply awesome. We had visited some electric go kart tracks in the area, but the kids wanted gas powered and so we drove a little bit further to come here. It was worth the extra distance. The course, the staff, and the cars were good, but what really “drove” it home for me was the manager, Manny. What a dude! Where customer service seems to be dead everywhere else, Manny is the epitome of great attitude and service. If the owners know what’s good for them, they will never let him leave. Pay that man! Kayla was also super cool and helpful, but Manny makes me want to refer people here and also come back. Thank you Manny - don’t change!

    Really fun, axe throwing and racing Food is ok. It's in a really big warehouse that's kinda scary on the outside. Saw a huge rat, but it was worth it.

    Lehigh Valley Grand Prix is SO MUCH fun, always a blast and it’s an extremely challenging and physically demanding course. Make no mistake, you will be sore the next day! So as far as the go kart course goes it’s a 5/5. We’ve done the axe throwing before and if I’m being honest it’s probably the worst in the area. The axes bounce off the concrete, they’re not great axes and it’s just not the best experience but go for the karts and you will have a blast!

    Some great go-karting and service! Everyone was so helpful from the checking process to the briefing room to getting on to the karts, No wait but you should definitely reserve / buy packages online before going since it gets busy! Had some food and the chicken fingers and French fries were good and fresh cut fries, but the Pizza! The Pizza was unbelievably good! So good I had to get another one while we were in the back throwing axes! Simon was a great host! Thank you for everything.

    Had a great time, lap time based sessions are great, position based races are a bit too hard to pass due to the track design/limits. But that’s pretty common for indoor gokart tracks.

    Booked the Grand Prix package for a bachelor party and had a great experience. Staff explained the series well, and we had a chance to catch our breath and eat some food between races. The track and karts were fast and incredibly fun.

    A bit expensive after driving as far as we do. However, they are fun and we had a good time. For 2 juniors (14) and one adult to race 3 races, 2 out of 3 the kids were alone racing. It was about $194 total for the races and some license charge per person. The races are about 7 minutes long. My first two cars were definitely more governed than my last.

    We run here when my son is in the off season from dirt track racing. We have always had a great experience. The manager, Manny is the best. He always takes time to talk with the kids and give them any advice he can. I tell everyone this place is hands down the best kart track in the area.

    Cars run good,pretty fast for indoor karts,seats are rough if you drive them hard but definitely one of the better kart locations.

  • 4/5 Paul O. 10 months ago on Google
    Place was clean, service was quick, and the staff were polite and helpful, especially with making sure you made it to your race if you didn't get out right away. Carts are fast, manageable, and fun to drive, though they can get hot where the engine is, and if you're tall and/or wide, it'll be a bit harder to get in and out of the carts.

    I’ve Been Here on numerous occasions, however my last time due to an incident that took place we will not be returning after the experience we endured. The juniors option should be reconsidered regarding age. Mixing teenagers with children under 11 is not a safe environment, due to bullying situations that took place on the track as well as outside of it. There should be repercussions for those who do not follow staff rules set on the track. As well as improper behavior from customers who do not conduct themselves well. Unfortunately due to a certain group, my child birthday was semi-ruined due to it. Staff did not provide a reasonable solution towards ensuring the safety/ enjoyment of all participants. On the contrary management let the bullying persist after staff members confirmed of events taken place. Due to this we decided it was in our best interest to leave. I wouldn’t recommend this place for any events.

    I've never left a review for anywhere but I've watched this place go downhill for years and yesterday was the last straw. A group (5) of us planned to race for Monday night Madness. The first 2 people arrived, checked in, told the counter employee we are a group of 5 and would like to be put into the same race. The rest of the group arrived within 5 minutes of the first 2 arrivals, go back to the counter and we were ALL told the races are full and to go home. WHAT? We all drove 1.5hours to get there. Not even the first 2 of our group were allowed to run. This makes no sense. Why couldn't they just create another run group? This place has no management and it is a shame it has become what it has. Don't bother making the drive to this place, they'll just tell you to go home.

    Go karts are sick now that we got that out of the way.... I booked a race at 2:20pm for my girl and I left our dogs 1 being a 4 month old puppy at home for a specific amount of time to go have a "date day". We showed up 15 minutes early it was my first time so we sign in, go get our gear and I'm told I need to watch a quick video. We sit and watch the video and go back out to the lobby to wait for our name to be called over the "intercom". The person upfront yells put some names and a race number that aren't ours even though it was our time. Ok they are running a little behind that race ends next race gets called again not us it's a kids race. 3rd race gets called it wasn't us again but was the group that went first going for a second time. The person up front called I believe 4 races before telling us that she had called our race but we weren't there as if this was our fault. The only place we were that we wouldn't have heard it was in their separate room to watch their video. Mind you we showed up early so we had spare time. We did what we were instructed and they use their voice call out races instead of an intercom like she said, of course we didn't hear you in a separate room listening to a video that is if she even actually called it and didn't forget since there was another couple booked with us that seemed to have gotten skipped too and place with another group. The people in the track didn't have an exact answer when we went in about when our race was as if they don't even communicate or have a system linked from the front desk about when we were going to race. Our 2:10pm race finally began about an hour later. While I had a great 7 minutes running the course the overall experience was killed due to terrible service. This was not a busy day there were maybe 10 people total that were there to race around our time.

    Unexpectedly fast autos can be found here! Family members ranging in age from 11 to 45 have all loved coming here a few times. For those who don't want to ride, there is a waiting space with tables and a small area with snacks. In the same space, there is a pool table as well. The only issue is that, if you're sensitive to it, the gas smell from the cars can be overpowering.

    Went to this place and the staff was incredible to work with. Manny and Tyler set us up with some awesome racing. Thank you to the Lehigh Valley Grand Prix team for a great day of carting 🙌

  • 5/5 Ryan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff was great. The track and karts were absolutely top knotch. Huge shout out to Manny and Tyler for everything they did. Super knowledgeable guys, and very willing to help in every way they can.

  • 5/5 Jessica D. 1 year ago on Google
    We love coming here! They're always super nice and the go carts are FAST! Slick willys ain't got nothing on them. They're super clean, and we don't always have a reservation and they take us in usually right away. Definetly our #1 race spot

  • 5/5 Nick P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic activity. Fast karts and a great track. These are fit for competitive racing, not amusement park type equipment. Excellent staff, particularly Eva and Manny at the front desk were extremely helpful with handling our large disorganized group. We really appreciated it and will be coming back. Nice facility with waiting/watching area with windows into the track.

    I was in the area for a business trip and decided to swing by and run some races. They were running their Thursday Night deal in which you get 4 races for $50 (most places I have been to get you 3 races for around that price). I drove 4 different karts each time and each one had its own setup but they all seemed to be able to run around the same times around their track. The track is a good layout with a long straight and some technical areas as well so choose your line wisely! Overall I had an excellent experience and will definitely swing back by if I am ever in the area again!
