Tampa Bay Grand Prix

T B G P R is fast and furious, the down side is the people working on the track definitely seem like they want to be somewhere else.. The Xers driving on the track are doing everything they can do to trip up the rest of the drivers, one car had the bumper ripped off, and there was a couple of cars stopping the action having to be pulled free from the guards. I paid for to races for my son, and his gf, and they never put he credit back on my credit card, they told me I would get a receipt for it in my email, and that didn't happen. Not one of the better run raceways...

It's was fun! We had to wait 45 minutes for a private party to wrap up but the manager allowed us to go and "extra race" as compensation. The snack bar had lots of choices but many were out. Overall - this is fun place for both kids and adults to crank it up safely,

Celebrating my son's 12th birthday at this place was an absolute hit! He and his group of 6 friends had the time of their lives. The party room was well-equipped, including a two-hour slot, complimentary cake, two 2-liter bottles of soda, and three exclusive races. At the end of each race, they received a printed list of rankings and a shiny medal or trophy. The boys truly enjoyed the experience, with many now eager to have their birthday parties at the same venue. A big thank you for hosting such a memorable and fantastic party!

Didn't cart, so can't speak to that. We played pool, one small table in the front which worked fine because we needed to kill an hour before going somewhere. Takes quarters, so ask the front desk for change. There wasn't any chalk for the table or the bridge.

Great place to have a fin experience with clean cars and a great drive experience. Make sure you make a reservation or it could be a long wait especially on the weekends. They were having a birthday event when we were there. I thought, this would be a great place to celebrate a birthday even for grown ups! How unique and fun.

We had a great experience here! Reasonably priced, fun time for the whole family, friendly and professional staff. Our 7yo and 9yo had a wonderful time, there were cars for their size as well as adult-sized cars. We did a family race and then the kids did there own race.Would definitely recommend coming here!

Absolutely horrible!! There were 2 older male drivers (over 60) that were driving and were consistently ramming other drivers around the corners and being unruly. We asked if we could get into a different round for the next round after we noticed the unruly guys were in that round too. The staff couldn't adjust it (that wasn't their fault) but said they would talk to the drivers about taking it easy on this next round as the staff had noticed these male drivers were being a bit too crazy as well. I watched the staff the entire time before that round took off and no one said anything to the unruly drivers.About halfway through the round after several people had already been rammed, my son had braked around a corner and the unruly driver came up behind him and hit him and was going so fast that he ended up on top of my son's car - scraping and cutting up his arm! Initially I thought we would have to call 911 as it looked terrible! My son was bleeding and scraped up pretty bad and I pulled him out of the race. After I was yelling that the unruly driver needed to be ejected from that round - no one listened and he was allowed to keep going!! I cannot believe it!! There has to be some sort of rules for these things!!After complaining at the front desk while I'm bandaging up my son and shaking, all the front desk people could do was offer my family a free round. I never want to go back to this place!Please train your staff better in order to keep others safe from these crazy drivers! Just so unsafe!!

WARNING! SAFETY NOT OPTIONAL. MY SON LIMPED OFF TRACK WITH SWOLLEN KNEE, SCRATCHES AND BLEEDING!Visited this place on my son's birthday. I explained to attendees this was mine and my son's first-time karting, so we had no experience on the track. My son just met the height requirements to ride in the adult race. I was hesitant but noticed several kids riding in the "Adult" races. Rules were not explained verbally but detailed in writing in various locations throughout the track. The main rule I identified as significant was "NO BUMPING", an offense that would get a driver ejected. However, we were warned to take it easy around a sharp turn at the back of the track. No other rules were verbally detailed or explained. During the first race, my son got caught on the bumper more than once which prompted the attendant to slow all other cars to a stop until he could safely be guided back onto the track. At one point, the attendant told my son, "I'm not going to keep stopping the race for you, buddy" as my son, an inexperienced driver (being all but 11) unintentionally hit the bumpers when trying to allow other cars to pass him on the track. Several times I stopped to avoid ramming into a child around the sharp corner only to be hit at full speed by an adult driver trying to pass me. Many drivers intentionally bumped into me and my son without consequence or ejection. Then, my son got into a collision which left him stalled at a corner, the attendant DID NOT STOP THE RACE, and another driver rammed into him AT FULL SPEED. The other car lifted off the track and landed on top of my son, the wheel of that car scraped across his leg breaking skin on both sides of his knee. THEN, the race stopped. My son limped off the track guided away from me by an attendee. Still on the track in a kart, I repeatedly asked, if he was okay and unbuckled my seat belt to go after him. I was told he was fine and to put my seatbelt back on as they intended to start the race back up. I refused and said, I need to go see about my kid and requested to be allowed to drive off the track. I was told "No" when I heatedly insisted, I was told to just get out and walk. Needless to say, THIS WAS NOT A GOOD EXPERIENCE. I do NOT RECOMMEND celebrating a birthday at this place. Had I known bumping into stalled cars at 50 MPH was ALLOWED I would not have signed up. Keep your money and go someplace else.

Don't ride in car #16, heard someone complaining about it then they ended up putting me in it anyways. Super hard to turn, wheel is squeaking and wouldn't complete left turns at all I kept running into the wall because it was impossible to turn. When brought up to the employee after the race, he said I was his test dummy to see if it was actually broken. I paid money for the race to have a broken car that wasn't enjoyable.

This was not a great experience. We had a reservation which they could not find. She showed it to them and still they took a walk in group before us and made us Wait over an hour to even start. It seems like there's kids running this place. Would never come here again!!!!!!
