Xtreme Racing Center Pigeon Forge

First things first, this place is NOT CHEAP. If you just want to go and race once, it’s going to cost like $ 12 a head. However, if you LOVE go carting and would consider even doing it all day on a variety of tracks, this might be just the place for you. Under those options, pricing seems a lot more reasonable… You can even buy a weeklong pass if that’s what floats your boat.
The course itself isn’t very complicated, but it is very long and very fast. I would definitely say I enjoyed myself a lot more here than I did than at Adventure Racing (even though my wallet preferred their track at just $ 5). There are also multiple tracks and even multiple speeds of cart. Just make sure you’re very specific with the staff when selecting what packages you want… They aren’t very specific until it come time to pay, especially if you’re in a large group.

Paid the hefty price for three people for the two rides. Took FOREVER to even get started. First ride on the green I had a decent speed car that handled ok, I could at least hold my own in it. Second ride on red had a total lemon car that stuttered, had no speed, bounced all over the track, and to top it off my tire blew out. I was flagged in for a car exchange after they flagged the wrong car, I told them I would prefer to start over as I had already lost my place in the race against my two sons. «Pitcrew» guy said no I had to keep going. I spoke with the manager after the race, he already knew all the problems I had with the car, I told him a credit for the race would be fine, I wasn’t asking for a refund. In so many words I was told I was given an extra minute and too bad. The guy they flagged by mistake talked to the manager too about his race being interrupted as well, the manager didn’t care. I told the manager we paid a lot of money and we were not getting what we paid for which is wrong. I asked him if he was sure that’s how he wants to do business and he didn’t reply. There is not much special about these cars compared to the regular ones in town, not worth the rip off price just to wear a helmet and hope you get a decent car, because if your ride bombs they won’t care!

Oh. The mini races compared to driving a real car. Hey, racing to me is all the same, at least in concept. But in the end, I came out with the W in the group I went with. So for $ 25, you get 2 6 minute races. How does the race work? Well, this place has one track, and you go one way for one race and the other for the next race.
The karts are not too bad. They’re plenty fast, however you could always get the kart that’s slow. I enjoyed my time here, as it was pretty exciting and I hadn’t raced go karts in a long while. They supply you with a helmet, helmet liner, and 12 minutes of fun (if you pay $ 25).
I believe the next stop for me will be the Nascar go karts and see how it compares. If you’re in the area and looking for quick fun, you could definitely write this place on your list!

Honestly the best go kart place in pigeon forge. Karts are fast and for the money it’s well worth it.
Employees are very polite and have been helpful with our daughter.
Only reason why we gave them 4 stars is cause they didn’t have any offers/​specials for multiple races.
Other than that check this place out you will not be disappointed

My friends and I had been looking forward to going Go-​Karting during our stay, and we’re happy we chose this place. Much better than other places we’ve been to.
They have 30 MPH Karts and 40 MPH Karts and their special offer is a Grand Prix ride on both karts using the same track, just in opposite directions. They have an elevated track for slower karts and 2 seaters. They also have a handful of arcade games to play while you wait.
They have stages in place to get you signed up (waiver/​profile), pay, and a separate room to give you a thorough run down of safety and the basic how to’s. But just like any karting place, if you drive a car, you’re gunna know what you’re doing.
The staff was nice and very helpful. Oddly enough, the staff isn’t afraid to step on the track in front of you when you’re going 30−40MPH. I had a guy cross the track mind blowingly slow at the end of a straightaway. With a lot of people going in and out, they were informative, but there was a group before us that was messing around in the arcade and they wouldn’t start without them. That ended up wasting 20 minutes, so by the time they started, my friends and I could have been racing already.
For the competitive ones, they keep track of your fastest lap times and other stats so you can compete against your friends. Unfortunately, the system didn’t register our 40 MPH times which sucks because that’s what we came to do. It wasn’t 100% accurate either. I finished first on the 30’s and my buddy finished last with a more than doubled time, but him and I were side by side the entire time.
If you’re looking to go fast, this is the place to do it. It’s clean, the staff is nice, and the karts are fast. Keep in mind that once you pay, you’re most likely going to wait for a while depending how busy it is. They have each group go twice in a row (if you payed for it). Start on one side and then you hop over to the other side to ride the 40MPH karts
3 stars for their disorganization, malfunctioning time keeping, actually being pretty clean, and nice, but reckless staff
