DETAILS
Knoxville’s Premier Indoor Entertainment Venue
K1 Speed Knoxville is a premier family entertainment center in Knoxville, near the Pellissippi Parkway and I-40 interchange. As a top destination for things to do in Knox County, the facility’s main attraction is high-energy indoor go-karting, featuring advanced, all-electric karts on TWO professionally designed tracks. The facility has a maximum capacity of 378 people, and free, on-site parking is available as part of the Windsor Square shopping center.
Track 1
Track 1 is extremely technical, beginning with a 90-degree left, followed by a brief straight section and another 90-degree left. From here, racers should take a wide entry into the upcoming double apex, making sure to hit the second of the two apexes for the most efficient racing line. After that, approach the following hairpin from the outside, setting up a late entry. Then, a 90-degree left turn opens to the track’s longest straight section. After one more 90-degree left, the track becomes rhythmic with alternating S-Curves, leading to yet another double apex and hairpin before crossing the Start/Finish Line.
Track 2
Track 2 has more sweeping turns than tight hairpins and caters to speed over technique. The layout begins with a right-hand double apex. Make a late entry into the first apex, and you’ll be set up to nail the second with a solid exit. Keep the pedal down through the following esses and all the way until the track wraps back around into alternating hairpins. Enter the first of two alternating hairpins on the outside (left), so your kart hugs the barriers and sets up well for the second. Then, it’s pedal to the metal through the last two 90-degree turns and boom, you’re across the line.
The Best Knoxville Arcade
Over 45 arcade games await for good times off the karting tracks. With one of the largest arcades of any K1 Speed, Knoxville guests have plenty of entertainment options; there’s truly a game for everyone! Choose from games like Moto GP, Down the Clown, Crossy Road, Big Buck Hunter, and Air Hockey! Reloadable game cards make it a seamless transition from track leaderboards to arcade high scores.
Your Delicious Post-Race Destination
The Paddock Lounge at K1 Speed Knoxville offers a superior trackside dining experience, elevating it above other entertainment venues in the area. Guests 21 or older who’ve finished racing may enjoy a selection of Beer & Wine options. Food options include favorites like the Brisket Quesadilla, Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings, Pretzel Dogs, Pepperoni & Hot Honey Pizza, and so much more! Find your new fav on your next visit.
