Included Party Perks
Reserved Race Times
We know teens hate to wait for anything. That’s why our reserved times ensure they’ll start racing when they want to. This is exclusive to our events.
The Ultimate Photo-Op
From racing action shots to silly podium celebrations, there’s plenty of social media photo gold waiting for you at K1 Speed.
Fun Digital Party Invitations
Every party includes fun digital party invitations (we call them e-vites) that you can email or print out for your guests. These exciting invitations are sure to create a buzz for your party and will leave your guests counting down the days till race day!
Teens Get To Feel Like Professional Drivers
Your teens experience a simulation of what professional racers experience. This means they’ll qualify, line up on the starting grid, and RACE. If they do our Grand Prix Package, they’ll even get a practice session – just like the real deal!
Podium Celebrations and Cool Giveaways
There’s no worthless “participation” award here. Instead, your teens will have to earn their medal or trophy by finishing in the top three. And when they do, they’ll be rightly celebrated on our podium. The birthday teen will also get their very own medal, no matter where they place.
Private Racing
Who wants to race with strangers? Instead, you’ll race with only the people you know.
1 Hour Inside A Fun Racing-Themed Party Room
You’re going to want to celebrate your teen’s birthday party in one of our cool party rooms. That’s why we include one in our party package! So when the teens are finished racing, you’ll get one free hour for your meal and birthday celebrations (subject to availability when booking).
Food, Drinks & More!
To make things even easier for your teen’s birthday party, we complete your party with complementary pizza & drinks. We provide plenty of food for the young racers, but if you want more food for the teens and guests we’ve got it! Browse our menu below for additional food you can add to the party!
What Parents of Teens Say About K1 Speed Buffalo Grove
“Great place for kids and adults of all ages. Very friendly staff. Awesome karts. Large racing areas – separate for adult and junior racers. The bar area upstairs is very nice too. Good drinks and food. You can watch other people racing while having your drinks with friends. Had a junior birthday party there. Very well organized and tons of fun! Awesome place.”

“Go kart racing…who thought “clean, friendly, efficient” would apply? It does. And lots of fun too, especially for my 2 teen boys. I would recommend.”
– P.J. |
“Took our son there for his Birthday, and the staff could have been more accommodating and professional. Everyone was friendly and took the time make sure our son was happy. Any little request we had was taken care of and they treated him like a racing champ and he felt like one. He hasn’t stopped talking about it since. Props to all the staff. 🙂 Thank you for making our sons first K1 experience a memorable one!”
