Our K1 Speed San Diego location brings indoor go-kart racing to the heart of America’s Finest City! We invite you to come down today – it’s the same thrilling experience, much closer to home.

Get Your Game On!
Our arcade is the perfect place to keep the competitive energy flowing after your race. While large amusement parks require trekking across sprawling grounds, our vibrant gaming area is just steps from the track, allowing you to seamlessly transition from one challenge to the next. It’s a concentrated hub of excitement where you can go head-to-head with friends in air hockey, test your reflexes on modern video games, or try your luck on a variety of prize machines. This focused environment ensures the fun is immediate and accessible, keeping your group engaged and entertained without the hassle.
Unlike competitors that bundle simple games with other attractions, our arcade stands as a quality destination in its own right. We feature a curated collection of modern and classic games that appeal to both casual players and serious gamers. While other venues may treat their arcade as an afterthought, ours is a core part of the K1 Speed experience. It’s the ideal spot to settle a tie from the track, host a dynamic group event, or simply enjoy a premier gaming experience that complements the high-charged thrill of our electric karts.
High-Quality Menu | Paddock Lounge
Step off the track and into a dining experience that sets a new standard for entertainment centers. Unlike the typical snack bars found at other venues, the Paddock Lounge at K1 Speed San Diego is a true restaurant-style eatery focused on quality and flavor. We believe an amazing day of fun deserves equally amazing food, so we’ve left the heat-lamp hot dogs and stale popcorn behind.
Our menu is crafted to impress, featuring delicious options that stand far above the usual family entertainment center fare. Enjoy a juicy, perfectly cooked burger, share a gourmet pizza made with high-quality ingredients, or choose from a selection of savory appetizers that are ideal for the whole group. We see delicious, restaurant-quality food options as an essential part of the premium experience. Here, you can count on a satisfying meal that makes your visit a complete, top-tier outing from start to finish.
Our Racing Options
We have a number of different ways to experience indoor go-kart racing at our San Diego location. By far our most popular is our Arrive & Drive option. With this package, individuals of all ages* can come in anytime and experience the thrill of indoor karting, without the need to schedule a reservation. Simply show up and start racing – it’s that easy! Our Arrive & Drive races are for best lap time, allowing individuals to race for the win regardless of where they slot in the starting order, providing for a fair and evenly matched playing field.
For groups of 8 or more people, we also offer a range of go-kart racing packages. These packages are great for groups, as they provide exclusive use of the track during your heats, reserved race times, and even a podium celebration for the winners! Perhaps best of all, our race packages are structured after a Formula One or FIA GT race weekend – rather than race against the clock, you race against each other for position! Whoever passes the checkered flag first wins!
Our Karts
If you’ve visited our K1 Speed Carlsbad location, then you know just how impressive our all-electric karts are. However, if you’ve never made the trek up north, or are new to the sport of indoor go-kart racing, you’re in for a surprise! The karts at our San Diego location features 20hp electric motors, providing them with superior performance to gas-powered alternatives. Around our roughly one-quarter-mile indoor kart track, they can reach speeds approaching 45mph! You can rest assured, whether you drive a Porsche every day or a bicycle, you will not be disappointed in the performance!
