Carolina Motorsports Park simulates professional motorsport racing with a remodeled 0.7-mile course sanctioned by the World Karting Association. Drivers ages 12 and older careen around 16 hairpin turns and tear along a 760-foot straightaway, pulling past opponents and dodging off-course bumper cars. Birel N-35 Rock karts safely ensconce speedsters as they test the torque of the engine's nine horses worth of power on the same track that will host The Powerade Karting Championship.

About Carolina Motorsports Park
Situated on a former World War II training base, Carolina Motorsports Park continues its locale’s history of tutelage with an array of racing lessons and events. The park’s 2.3-mile road-course track gives stock cars, Formula One cars, motorcycles, and street-legal vehicles an outlet to wrap tires around 14 turns and launch speedometer needles into passengers' laps. Rentable Birel N35 Rock go-karts rev their 9-horsepower Honda engines around the 0.7-mile kart track and a 0.21-mile tri-oval track for guests 12 and older. The facility, which hosts regular racing events, also boasts 24 open-air day garages and a 200-foot skidpad where drivers hone their handling and cars practice their moonwalk.
