Top 7 Fastest Go Kart Tracks in Pigeon Forge
Published Jul 24, 2020Pigeon Forge can be a quiet mountain getaway — but sometimes you just feel a need for speed. Adults and kids alike can race at these seven tracks around town.
1. Xtreme Racing Center
Zip along in professional-grade European racing karts capable of speeds up to 40 mph. The 3,500-foot Xtreme Track sends you down narrow straightaways into tight turns, while the Reverse Track puts you back on the same course running the opposite direction — a genuinely different challenge. The shorter Elevated Track offers a family-friendly option with single or double karts, so younger riders can join in too.
2. Space Race Adventures
This space-themed attraction brings a futuristic spin to go-karting, with fast, single-rider gas karts on a sleek, high-tech track built for responsive handling and quick acceleration. Beyond the karts, Space Race Adventures also offers laser tag, mini golf, and virtual reality games — enough to fill an entire afternoon.
3. SpeedZone Fun Park
The Kids Track lets children as young as four get behind the wheel, while the Slick Track offers a fast surface for more experienced racers. The Tennessee Twister tests your skill through tight turns, and the whole family can tackle the Coaster Track, which ends with a high-speed downhill chute.
4. Adventure Raceway
Adventure Raceway offers a classic wooden coaster-style track — the climb up each tier feels deceptively slow, but the drops and humps on the way down deliver a real thrill. The attraction also includes bumper boats for a change of pace. Adventure Raceway typically runs March through November, with select weekends open through the winter.
5. Rockin' Raceway
Rockin' Raceway pairs a fast kart track with a full arcade, blending classic arcade favorites with today's virtual reality games. Race a few laps, then head inside to compete on the games — some VR setups even let you grab a video of your gameplay to share afterward.
6. Fast Tracks
The Elevated Track here is a thrilling corkscrew tower, while the Pro Track gives drivers age 12 and up a genuinely fast ride. Younger drivers can practice on the Junior Track. Fast Tracks also features kids' rides, an arcade, and The Skyscraper — a ride that lifts you 160 feet in the air before spinning at up to 60 miles per hour.
7. LazerPort Fun Center
LazerPort's 50-foot-tall spiral track delivers an elevated ride full of twists, turns, and a steep, breath-taking drop. Kids as young as three can ride along in double karts. Round out your visit with laser tag, an indoor blacklight mini golf course, and a full arcade.
