If you’re planning to spend some time ride-hopping at Luna Park this summer, it’d be a huge mistake to miss the Coney Island Raceway, a 24-kart outdoor track. Here, you can race around a curvy 900-foot course to your heart’s desire (well, until the race is over). Karts can fit up to two people. Get more info on Coney Island fun here.
Do your kids get the zoomies on the weekend? If you’re looking for some high-speed fun, there’s nothing better than speeding around a track in a mini race car. Fortunately there are plenty of venues that offer adrenaline-pumping go karting near NYC. From indoor circuits that defy gravity with their hairpin turns to outdoor tracks where you can feel the wind in your hair as you zoom down straightaways, these spots offer thrills for everyone from casual racers to seasoned speed demons. Go karting is a great activity for kids any time, but especially when you need an indoor activity to stay out of the weather, as many are indoor features of larger amusement complexes. So next time you’re looking for some thrilling family fun, buckle up, rev your engines and get ready to unleash your inner race car drive.
