10 Oct K1 Circuit Now Open!
After eight years in the making, we are excited to tell you that K1 Circuit is now officially open!
K1 Circuit takes outdoor karting to the next level. From our professional outdoor track with elevation changes and banking to our electric pro-kart that can reach speeds in excess of 80 miles per hour, K1 Circuit is the place to go when you’re ready for an elevated racing experience. Read on to learn more.
A Grand Prix-Style Road Course for Karts
The 1.1-mile, 12-turn track at K1 Circuit isn’t like most outdoor karting places. While the usual outdoor karting tracks are literally parking lots or flat and featureless field tracks, this place is just like a smaller-scale grand prix road course and is designed by Rocky Moran, Jr. – the designer of the famed Moran Raceway in Beaumont, California from the early 2000’s.
Our track has got 40 feet of elevation change, a thrilling 14-degree banked corner, sweeping downhill esses, and it’s paved with methods identical to the greatest racetracks. Not to mention, the kerbing, safety runoffs, fencing, etc. is all built to meet the strict CIK-FIA standards for international karting events. And with our trackside lighting, get ready for some awesome night races.
As a result, the few people who have driven this track boast that it’s nothing like they’ve ever experienced before. This truly is the next chapter of outdoor kart racing.
The First Outdoor Electric Pro-Kart Rental Program in the U.S.
When K1 Speed opened the doors to their first center over 20 years ago, they pioneered the indoor electric karting experience in the United States. And now, at K1 Circuit, we’re doing the same for the outdoor electric karting scene.
K1 Circuit is home to the first Arrive & Drive rental program in the country to offer electric pro-karts. Sure, other places use electric karts for their outdoor track, but our karts are purpose-built for competition, not amusement. In fact, the OTL E Pro Kart from Italy can reach speeds of over 80 miles per hour when unrestricted!
Arrive & Drive karting is available daily from open at 9am to close at 9pm, pending weather or special events. Drivers must be at least 60” tall and 13 years of age.
Kart Owners Welcome
K1 Circuit isn’t just for rental karts, either. If you’re an owner of your own kart, you can enjoy our open practice sessions. Open practice for kart owners is available daily, pending special events, from 9am to 5pm.

World-Class Amenities
The track and karts aren’t the only things you’ll love at K1 Circuit! Our new venue also provides top-tier amenities, including premium garages with electricity and climate control, secure kart storage, and a private event space for corporate or group functions.
We’re currently constructing a 14,000-square-foot building that will feature a pro shop, changing rooms, showers, meeting rooms, a restaurant and bar, and a mezzanine with stunning views of the track. This amazing building should be open before the end of the year.
Plan Your Visit!
K1 Circuit is now open seven days a week from 9am to 9pm, pending weather or special events. Open practice for kart owners begins at 9am and concludes at 5pm, while Arrive & Drive rental karts begin from open at 9am and run until closing at 9pm.
