    I was expecting the track to be like other locations but it was small and pretty bland. No lights or multiple level tracks. The carts are fast and fun to drive but the track is so small you can barely get them to top speed. Overall disappointing for the money.

    I had a great time! Food and drinks available. They have adult drinks too. Very cool place. Right next to Frontier Justice. Lee’s Summit. Walk in register and then choose how many races you want to do. Check the website for specials.

    Whether you're a seasoned racer or a first-timer, K1 is an absolute must-visit. It's the perfect blend of adrenaline-pumping fun, safety, and excellent service. I'll definitely be back for another round of thrilling races! The staff was not only friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable and ensured everyone's safety with thorough briefings. The attention to detail in terms of safety measures made me feel confident about the whole experience. The go karts themselves were top-notch—fast, responsive, and well-maintained. The track layout was thrilling, with enough twists and turns to keep it interesting for both beginners and experienced drivers. I loved the variety in track elements; it added an extra layer of excitement to the race.

    Daughter had fun and adults too! Made me feel like a kid again! A little pricey but sure overhead is crazy for that amount of space, had a really good sandwich there while waiting and pretty nice arcade! Definitely recommend with a group so you can race each other!

    New, clean building with two event rooms for b-day parties or business team building events. A large lounge to drink and eat. A smaller arcade for the little ones. The karts are electric and faster then anything I had growing up. They have junior and adult races.

    This is a fabulous addition to family fun in KC! Everything is brand new from the building to the Italian electric karts and boy are they are fun to drive! We went on a weekend and was impressed that the wait to race was relatively short, the manager, Devin, and his staff were very helpful and friendly, they took safety as a priority, and everything was spotless! The virtual reality haunted house was a trip! We tried the food and highly recommend the pickle bites with chipotle sauce. Seriously it’s got something for the whole family! Highly recommend! Awesome addition for family fun in KC!!!!!

    Was a ton of fun definitely going to visit again. However it was definitely pricey especially with the mandatory 8 dollar membership. Very expensive and short races. Even with their best package (3 races) it’s over 20 dollars a race. If you go for the smaller race packages it can be up to 24 to 28 dollars a race. Unfortunately this track is also shorter than many other k1 speed locations so this also means shorter races for the same amount of money as other locations. Lap time is around 25 seconds on average for the 12 lap race so it’s 5 minutes of actual driving in a race. I think over 20 dollars for 5 minutes of driving is a little ridiculous. I think more laps need to be added for the shorter track or drop the prices then this K1 would earn a higher rating.

    I bought the 1 year membership license and 2 race sessions. The carts are quite fast and electric. They allow up to 10 carts on the track at once. A session is 12 laps and you will need a small recovery period between sessions. Snacks, soft drinks, burgers, and an arcade. Very friendly, helpful staff. They offer meeting rooms for parties and corporate events as well. About $70 for the license ($7.95) and 2 race sessions.

    How fun is this place!! It was busy so we had to wait 30 minutes but it was worth it!! All staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. Will definitely be booking a party here. Food was good and large portions. Devin was the manager that night and was super helpful and knowledgeable. Overall, great experience.

    I've been to multiple K1 locations and this one is beyond my expectations. It’s been very busy since it opened, but weekdays don’t have too bad of a wait. The amenities are great and it’s so easy to get to for me. It’s right off the highway. Also, make sure to get the chipotle chicken sandwich, it’s delicious. Racing has been awesome! It’s a fast track with really nice karts. I’m pretty short too, so the staff have been quite accommodating to get me a booster seat and pedal extenders. So don’t be afraid to ask!

    My company had a team get together and it was a blast! We have a lot of competitive people on our team and some people let loose all while laughing and having a great time!!!
