Indoor Go Kart Racing San Francisco

Our K1 Speed San Francisco location brings indoor go kart racing to the Bay Area. If you live in Oakland, Berkeley, San Jose, San Mateo, Millbrae, Burlingame or a nearby community, it is a short driving distance from San Francisco International Airport, Golden Gate Bridge, Oyster Point or Marina, making it one of the best indoor event venues.

 

Our indoor karting location is a state-of-the-art entertainment venue featuring a professionally designed racetrack, spacious lobby with snack bar, extensive collection of authentic racing memorabilia, and meeting rooms perfect for special events or business functions. However, what truly separates K1 Speed apart is our collection of high-performance, zero-emission, environmentally friendly all-electric go-karts. We live in a changing world and we recognize that we must all do our part – our aim is to deliver an authentic, genuine racing atmosphere while maintaining as small a carbon footprint as possible. With our European electric karts, we can do just this. Not only are they more eco-conscious, they offer superior performance to their gas-powered cousins. If you want to experience the thrill of wheel-to-wheel racing action, and become the best go kart racer you can be then try indoor go-kart racing at K1 Speed San Francisco today! Residents from Oakland and the Greater Bay Area are welcome.

 

One of the best indoor go kart tracks in Northern California!

Arrive & Drive Racing

Our Arrive & Drive racing program is perfect for both novice and veteran enthusiasts. Competitors hit the track with up to 11 other racers to race for the fastest lap time. The clock never lies and winning the heat requires skill, natural talent, consistency, and sound strategy. Should you try to follow the line of the racer in front of you or should you create a gap in traffic so that you have the track all to yourself? These decisions will impact your on-track performance and your chances at setting a fast lap time. By racing against the clock rather than for position, competitors don’t have to worry about being blocked or having the unlucky fate of being stuck behind a slower driver who just won’t get out of their way!

 

During each race, competitors can monitor their performance in real time, thanks to our live telemetry system. Every time a competitor crosses the start/finish line, his or her lap time and overall position will be displayed on a projection screen. This allows racers to keep track of their lap times, make adjustments on the fly, and gauge their performance in comparison to friends, family members, or strangers. This live data stream makes the race an immersive experience and gives the racer a sense of the stakes at hand. Don’t be surprised if the nerves are tingling at the end of your heat – the feeling of speed and competition can become addictive! If you want to experience this feeling yourself, the Arrive & Drive go-kart racing option at K1 Speed San Francisco is for you. Barring private closures and our monthly Challenge GP events, our Arrive & Drive package is available every day of the year.

Special Events, Corporate Events, and More

For parties of 9 or more, we recommend reserving one of our many racing packages. This guarantees the party exclusive use of the track during its races and allows friends, family members, or co-workers to race head-to-head against each other for position. Our racing packages are tremendous fun and provide a genuine racing experience. Whether you opt for our Mini Grand Prix – a sprint race that affords no mistakes and requires fast learning – or our Le Mans Endurance event, you’ll walk away with a smile on your face. Our race packages feature qualifying heats, standing-start races for position, and podium ceremonies for the winners, complete with trophies and a photo session. These racing packages are perfect for:

 

 

If you are interested in our race packages, we can also provide you with a range of local catering options as well as meeting room rentals. We want your experience to be pleasant and memorable, and would be happy to tailor your reservation around your specific needs.

First time at this track. Layout is great and carts performed well (made top time for the week list). At check in, took about 15 minutes before we were helped just to be told that a corporate event was about to take place and will be an hour and a half before we could race. We Waited around until our names were called. Brought a friend who was a first timer and the staff did not brief him on cart controls and did not explain the flag system to him. I showed and explained to my friend the rules and expectations and gave him the run down. There was no shortage of staff as there were 5 employees standing around the pit area. The facility is great but the staff gave a vibe that they didn’t want to work or help.

Generally, it was a good experience. However, the seat is hard. If you bump into the wall or others, your will likely experience some soreness and pain in the back.

My friend and I are older and we had a great time. What do we get for being older? A lot more years of weighing risk and reward. For instance we both happen to be mountaineers and rock climbers. What we found was that there were very young drivers who drove recklessly, at a cost of particularly hurting others not to mention themselves. Specifically I am talking about passing people and when that is a good idea. The person who greeted us and checked us in didn't mention that at all. For me, if I am going to pass somebody, I am going to weigh how confident I am that I will succeed and the consequence of failure to me and others. It is clear that many other drivers do not make that analysis.

My team and I had an absolute blast. Could not have asked for a better experience. I loved the structure of the races. First race being a hunt for the fastest lap with the second being fastest 3 folks to complete X amount of laps. Unsure if there are other bundles, I didn’t book it. However, the 12 lap best lap and 14 lap race felt like just the right length.
