K1 Speed - Indoor Go Karts, Corporate Event Venue, Team Building Activities

K1 Speed on S Arville Street is one of the few Las Vegas activities that genuinely satisfies older kids and teens who've grown out of trampolines and playground equipment. This indoor electric go-kart facility runs real racing — not bumper car speed, but actual competitive racing where lap times get tracked and posted on a big screen after each race.

The karts are electric, which means zero exhaust fumes inside the building and a quieter (though still exciting) racing experience. Adult karts hit up to 45 mph on the banked track; junior karts for shorter kids are slower but still plenty fast to get hearts going. Kids 48" to 58" tall can drive junior karts, often as a passenger with an adult in a double kart arrangement.

Kids over 58" and adults drive the same standard karts.

What makes this a family hit rather than just a teen activity is the competition element. After each race, a screen shows every driver's lap times and ranking — watching your 10-year-old beat your time is genuinely humbling and makes for great family bragging rights material. There's also a decent arcade section for waiting periods or younger siblings who can't race yet.

Plan on 1-2 hours total per visit. Each race runs about 8-10 minutes on the track. Most families do 2-3 races, which is usually enough to scratch the racing itch. Closed-toe shoes are required — don't show up in sandals or flip-flops or you'll be turned away from the track.

Weekend afternoons can have 30-45 minute waits; weekday afternoons are much more manageable. Book online in advance to skip longer check-in lines on busy days.
