    Great Family Entertainment Center in Austin

    Adults racing go-karts during a party at K1 Speed.

    Austin, Texas, the home of Formula One racing in America, is also now home to K1 Speed – America’s premier indoor karting experience! If you want a taste of F1 racing for yourself, the first K1 Speed location to call the great state of Texas home – K1 Speed Austin – is for you!  We offer world-class indoor go kart racing to satisfy the adrenaline needs of diehard and casual motor sport fans alike; our European-style 20hp electric karts make racing with friends and family a thrill, and make a visit to K1 Speed an unforgettable experience! Our indoor kart tracks are among the largest in the nation, and provide an experience that is truly unique. We aim not only to provide individuals with authentic, heart-pounding wheel-to-wheel racing, but also strive to offer an atmosphere that is if not as exciting as the on-track racing action, nearly so! Drivers get to experience dizzying G-forces and speeds of nearly 45mph on the track, and when not racing, can browse through our museum-worthy collection of racing memorabilia, including race suits from famous drivers, race cars, autographed paraphernalia, and amazing art work.

     

    K1 Speed Austin is situated close to the Colorado River, and only a 20-minute drive from Circuit of the Americas (COTA), five minutes from The Domain, 15 minutes from downtown Austin, and serves the nearby communities of Round Rock and Georgetown.

    Premier Arcade & Gaming in Austin

    The arcade is loaded with a diverse selection of the latest video games, classic retro titles, and engaging prize-redemption machines, making it a perfect choice for things to do with kids, a night out with friends, or a unique corporate event. Our commitment to providing a top-tier gaming experience ensures there’s always a new high score to chase.

    Indoor Karting in Austin – The K1 Speed Difference

    K1 Speed will redefine your notion of what go kart racing is. To put it simply, these aren’t your parents’ go karts! In fact, once you try our high-performance, environmentally-friendly electric go karts, you will never be able to “race” the go karts at your local miniature golf course or amusement park again! We take great pride in the superb performance of our karts, and are confident that you will appreciate the difference.

     

    As with every K1 Speed indoor karting location, the track at K1 Speed Austin is professionally designed to ensure our customers’ safety, and to provide a challenging, yet fun driving experience. K1 Speed Austin provides a complete indoor go kart racing experience in Central Texas; residents of greater Austin, including Round Rock, can live our their F1 and NASCAR fantasies 365 days a year!

     K1 Speed Austin Lobby

    Arrive and Drive Racing

    To satisfy the diverse needs of Austin residents, there are a variety of ways to experience indoor go kart racing at K1 Speed. We provide a number of popular race packages and Arrive and Drive racing for individuals wishing to challenge friends, family, or the clock at any time of day (excluding during private closures). Our Arrive and Drive racing option allows both novice and experienced racers to test their skills, and settle a score, anytime! Though you’ll be racing wheel-to-wheel against other drivers, winning will require far more than simply holding off the person behind you, as the winner is determined by fastest lap time, adding an additional degree of difficulty and strategy to an already challenging race!

    Special Events and Corporate Packages

    Adults celebrate on the podium at K1 Speed during a retirement party.

    In addition to Arrive and Drive racing and our Challenge GP race league, we also offer birthday, corporate, and special event packages, including:

     

     

    We can help schedule an event for you that will be truly special if you are planning an event with a large number of guests, be it for a private function or business event. Our Austin karting location has meeting rooms, Wi-Fi connectivity, projection screens, televisions, and available catering. To learn more about these packages, you are encouraged to call K1 Speed Austin today.

     

    Don’t wait! Experience the thrill and excitement of indoor go kart racing for yourself, today. K1 Speed Austin is situated within easy access of city residents, and individuals from surrounding communities, including Round Rock, will find it is more than worth the drive. Please feel free to contact K1 Speed today to schedule a reservation, get directions to our Austin indoor karting location, inquire about private closures, or buy gift cards.

    Had a good experience overall. We got good instruction before riding however the slower riders were supposed to be flagged to move over and were not, one kept spinning out in front of me and was unavoidable on 2 occasions and I was the one that got a warning, not cool. Also they need some padding on the back of the seat, it beats your back up pretty good. I would go back again.

    Tons of fun, great staff. The manager checked in on us the entire time and made sure we were having the most fun possible. If you can get to the correct track time, I highly recommend level 4 on the karts. Makes things go from awesome to insane, fun wise!

    I kind of wish it had yellow go karts. That way I can fly the Y-wing. Anyways, the place does have a great arcade where I played the Fast and Furious arcade cabinet and drove a yellow Ford GT.

    Went to K1 recently. AC was still broken, but it is what it is. The staff, having no ability to impact this were friendly and helpful. The manager Gerald was awesome and took care of our party. He's one of the reasons I continue to come back. The racing here is fast but safe. This is my favorite place to bring out of town friends.
