Customer Reviews

Our daughter celebrated her birthday here at the Mall. The staff was awesome in this location and made sure the girls had a great time. They even offer a head cam to wear during the race with a QR code for purchasing a personal video. The scores are sent to your registered email and they have a fun leader board and podium for bragging rights. They do not sell concessions other than limited candy options. The bathroom is located in the Mall but fortunately it's super close. It's is a bit pricey but the girl

It was a great experience my son loved it he's only 6 years old he was scared at the beginning but the stuff is very nice and professional after he finished his first race he ask me for another one he loved it

Took my 8 y/o and she had a blast! The staff we dealt with were great! The Army vet who checked us in, I believe jis name was Nicho, was super accommodating! (Too bad he was Arny cause the Navy is the best... lol) Definitely would go again. Just a piece of advice. Get there early. Place opened at 11am, we got there 11:45am, there was a half hour wait. We left at 1:30pm, wait time was 2 hrs!

I had an absolute blast at K1 Speed Indoor Go Karts! From start to finish, the experience was thrilling and packed with adrenaline. The moment I walked in, I was struck by the sleek and modern setup. The staff was super friendly and efficient, getting us geared up and ready to race in no time. The go-karts themselves are top-notch?fast, responsive, and incredibly fun to drive. The track is well-designed with plenty of twists, turns, and straightaways that really test your driving skills. The electric karts

The front desk check in staff is amazing! Super special shout-out to Esther?she was patient, knowledgeable and so kind!! And to Sean! His energy and kindness was a whole vibe!! He was so amazing with our twin sons, and with all the other kids I observed him interact with! We can't wait to be back. Our kids loved it!!

Levi is the best. Gabe is great customer very attentive really made us feel welcomed. Keep up the great work from Kylee

We celebrated my son?s 13th birthday recently there. It was a memory he will cherish for a long time! The staff was awesome, everything was organized and they did not rush us at all !!!! All the kids had plenty of time to enjoy racing and they let us enjoy our party room for longer than expected! Thank you Autobahn Speedway - no event could have been cooler for these boys!

The staff was very patient with my son who has Autism. I thank them for their patience and kindness ??.

Fun experience but one young driver was very aggressive and had multiple accidents yet he was not removed from the race. Would have enjoyed it more if unsafe drivers faced consequences.

Good place good track, some things need fixing. The sign in process was very confusing, we were celebrating my friends birthday and it took 30-45 minutes just to figure out the payment sign in was different and we need to sign in for all four of us racing. I don't really mind the wait for the race cuz it wasn't long and they were prioritizing the little kids first, which i understand. To sum up what i said: make the sign in more clear it has to be for everyone

It was a good time; this trip was worth the drive .. and for all ages. It bought more to date night !

Some of the staff are friendly but overall not a great experience. My friend and I got put into a very slow group. I understand everyone has a different comfort level, but when I spend $60 for 10 min of racing I would hope I'm not stuck behind a group of ppl who are going around the track at a walking pace. The staff knew we were frustrated but didn't have an interest in doing anything about it.

K1 was wonderful. Last minute plans are a headache but everyone was friendly understanding and professional. When we arrived we were late and K1 called to see where we were and waited. Thank you for making my 13 year old special day wonderful!

Employees were very nice and very helpful and patient, and laughed with me when I totally crashed into a wall and asked if I still had all my teeth. Very cool experience and definitely recommend :)

My son celebrated here his 9th Birthday with few of his friends.We did arrive&drive.Everyone had a blast!

My son loves it! Corrie is a great instructor and Christina is a great manager! It's the best karting place near us, hands down. Highly recommend!

The racing was great!! Juniors went pretty fast, and my 8 year's old enjoyed it very much! One thing, the camera on his helmet was not positioned in a good angle at all and all you see on the video I paid for is his hands and the front of the car. None of the corse was showing so that was a let down.

Great and thrilling experience. The only thing was I was charged for 2 hours and I think it's a little bit of a lie when the actual run time for two round was only about 15 minutes each? I don't get that. Other than that the staff could use some more enthusiasm, just super dull. It was so much fun though, the rush of the experience of lift drifting in karts and I went with my car enthusiast family so it was a nice competitive experience. They do have claw machines and lockers for your stuff. JUST MAKE SUR

I must admit the properness and how wonderfull they are! I was there a few days ago i had lost a gold bracelet and didnt even know if i had it on that day but when i wanted to put it on at home i didnt find it and naturally was verrry sad about it. I took a chance and called k1 to check if by any chance they found a bangle and described it for them and when she came back on the phone she told me they have it!!! I cudnt believe it and was amazed by their honesty and friendliness about it and they said the

Well ran , Rey safe and staff was very organized and pleasant - Great place for some fun !

I had the best underdog story ever. I literally went from last place in my first round to first place in my last round. We cooked.

It was awesome! We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was not packed great race tracks and great staff! Can't wait to come back soon!

We had a really good time, my two sons and I celebrated my youngest 16th Birthday racing your Go-Karts. It was a blast!.

The carts and track are great, and the staff do a wonderful job of keeping drivers safe and offering tips for cleaner laps.

Went with my hubby on a Saturday night. It was $35 per person for 1.5 hours. It definitely was not worth it. There were 8 other people (strangers) that we had to wait for until it was our turn. We figured that after the lesson we would be split up into different stations. But no. It was two boards and one person at each board. We had maybe 20 minutes? of total axe throwing time. I don't know why we had to share this station when there was nobody using the other boards. I guess this is because there was only

Honestly I love this place my friends and family come here often however, on New years day we went and the woman who is the manager is out of hand. I made reservations online then received an email that I was charged $107 for 3 of us to have 1 VR Session. When I got there I asked about it. The guy told me he would talk to his manager when she came out she demanded that I pull up my banking app so she could see if that's what I was actually charged. I was so disgusted. My banking app is private. I showe

Great experience. Check in associate was courteous & helpful with helping my friend use his pass he had received from when you guys had your old name of Autobahn that was supposed to still be accepted. Race time was fun. & track attendants were friendly & helpful. The 1 racer was a little aggressive & seemed to make it a game how many times he could smack into me. The time trial seemed hard to crack the code of. I seemed to be going fast but timing didn't seem to compute as such all the time. But maybe it

Took my wife here on Christmas Eve for her birthday and the staff was unbelievably kind and enthusiastic. They even waved a birthday balloon from the stand as she drove by. They really made her feel special. What an amazing crew!

AAMAIA was so nice, courteous, kind, quick efficient and AMAZING. GIVE HER A RAISE! She should be recognized for her great job.

Axe throwing was dope. Definitely make sure you come try it out. They have a worker with you also teaching you new moves and playing various games. Staff was very friendly and helpful, Shout out to CY, he was awesome!

Such an amazing outing - surprisingly, the ax throwing was THE BEST - what started out as just myself and a friend quickly turned into a few more pairs and we had a BALL! Marcus is an amazing, friendly and funny teacher and initially we all thought the 1.5 would be WAY too long but it quickly turned into not being long enough. There was clapping, laughing, fun and safety from start to finish! The racing is a thrill ride within itself but if you're looking to really have an experience, go with the throwing a

Ha a great time here. Brought my son and daughter with my friend and his son. The dads did a race and it was definelty thrill. The kids cars were a bit slower for safety. Everything was very clean. They sanitized each helmet after the race and gave a cool head mask/hood. We will definitely be back! Wish I had invested in a 5 or 10 pack up front.

Fun place to visit. Me and my family had a great time! I would definitely come back!

Chistina and her crew are very nice , enjoyed my visit !!!! Had a lot of fun , will definatly coming back

Had a blast here for first two races all was well and the racing was fun. They put us in our seats for third race and didn't let us out, they let all the other rows out more then once while we sat in row 2 for 30 minutes helmet on in the cart and someone dropped the ball. They might have switched shifts but it was not fun waiting to see every row go before you and twice at that. If it wasn't for being treated unfairly and strapped down to wait 30 minutes which I have proof of time waiting, then I would have

It's heaps of fun...they're no signs for the place though...but you will see best buy...go in an up the stairs..then take escalator to 2nd floor..????

My most recent visit to Autobahn Palisades was an awesome one! Amaia greeted me at the front desk with a smile and some jokes. The Supervisors Matt & Ted along with Andrew (a pit crew member) welcomed me back like some old friends! The karts were in great shape and I was able to do my 3 races against racers both novice and experienced. Can't wait to visit again when I have some free time!

False advertisement, website and location states you need to be 48in or taller. My daughter is clearly tall enough and according to the measurements wall, she is over 48in, but the lady at the desk says you need to be 50in tall?.. a number that she randomly made up. I believe it could be do to our race and doesn't match hers. Is everyone racist at this location?

This place is amazing! The cars work well, and oh boy they can accelerate...yes! The track is smooth and with a super accurate tracking racing system. In addition, to the driving experience, I gotta say that the staff is wonderful; I feel compelled to mention some names: Sebastian-Nicho-Sarah-Paulson-Blonde long hair skinny white dude (sorry didn't get your name) thank you for being so attentive, and kind. I mentioned those names but all of Autobahn staff seemed on point. Thank you all for contributing to m

It was awesome, I had a blast. It was fun I enjoyed it very much and definitely coming back with my sister. The place is beautiful and the staff members helped me a lot since it was my first time.

Had a great time, place was clean, the staff was excellent. Definitely will return to do some more racing!

My wife took me here a few days ago for my birthday. I wasn't really sure what to expect from indoor go-karts, but it was AWESOME! Honestly, everything was great. The people were all super fun! (Shout out to Miguel, Sebastian and Illy.) The karts were clean and most importantly fast! Go check them out. NOW!!! Edit: We went ax throwing here too!! Also very good. You have to be chaperoned by an employee for this, but like I said, the people are all super fun. We had Marcus and he was super chill!

We did ax throwing as a team building and it was AWESOME. Our instructor was AJ and he was absolutely awesome. He made it so much fun and still safe cause I mean we're throwing axes here. Can't wait to come back and visit. Shooting for my blue dot ??

Horrible. Do not come here. I was given a kart that was clearly incapable of going full speed. I will be filing a chargeback as "goods and services not rendered" if I do not receive a satisfactory response.

It was extremely fun but controlling needs some help. Even though I was handling well my cart got slowed down for a warning a different number did.

Loved it. Definitely going back. About to start watching NASCAR.

Walk Ins accepted is a joke! I drove over 1 hour with my entire family, on a weekday to Autobahn and was turned away because of a private party. Getting someone on the phone prior to arrival is impossible. The management could careless and stated ?they don't update the website so that's their problem?! Forget that I just waste all of our time. To add insult to injury there's no private event. Just two kids driving around the track. So disappointed!

Awesome experience. Kids had a blast drive I genuinely enjoyed Axe throwing. Will absolutely visit again. Visited on 11/12/22. Not crowded at all for a Saturday.

Nice activity during Covid. Very organized and responsible. Were following up on the use of masks. Just a little expensive for the amount of time, but it was really cute

Front desk staff very friendly but those by cars not so much. They seemed annoyed most of the time. For the cost and short time, would expect more professionalism but that appears to be a lost art in 2025.

It's the best place I ever visited it's fun it's exciting and they have great staff and great service especially the one and only staff member his name is AJ is the best place to visit come and see it by yourself

The staff is fantastic, despite all the crap that people probably give them every day. What a fun experience for kids of all ages!

Don't come here when they're having birthday party's you will be waiting for hours... front desk didn't inform us we would be waiting 2 hours he said one... the guy at the front desk has no clue all he cares about is selling races...

Interesting racing car place. Drivers have to wear the hamlets. Cars can be very fast but there are safety staff on the side. You can hear the squeak and engine ramping sounds. I think it's exciting.

All of my kids enjoyed themselves immensely. Great staff, very informative and helpful..fun time for the kids!!!

We were racing prior to this Everything was good until these I guess pro people came in for a race . My kart ended up slower as well as my friends kart. but mine had no brakes the workers did not accommodate to change my kart or having us race again . They didn't believe I had no brakes I couldn't stop very unsafe even though I hit another rider because they had me race with no brakes while trying to let them know on the track .The number of the kart with the problem is #25 the kart #6 was amazing really f

Fast electric go karts in an indoor setting. Well trained and friendly staff. They have Junior races with Junior sized go karts as well as adult go karts that are bigger and faster that the Junior go karts. They have price packages that can decrease the per track session price. They have various sized helmets with head socks. They also have adult and Junior leagues. Enjoy!!!

Friendly, proactive, and willing to please! An all around perfect first time experience for a group of 8 boys!

Disorganized. Expensive. Thru sell packs of three rides but you can't split them among drivers. They NEVER let the Karts go full speed. It's a frustrating and disappointing experience and I won't do it again.

This was my first time here and I have to say it was a great experience. I just wish the VR was a little longer. Axe throwing was AMAZE BALLS. Loved it. GO Karting was good but it should be longer with all the stalling that goes on. Overall it was a good time.

We visited autobahn on 5/21/2023 A group of ten and we definitely had a great time! I would recommend it and will definitely be back with the family!!

CY was the best Axe Throwing Guide I've ever had! For my birthday, I decided to come here with a group of friends to complete what had been a great day of festivities. From the moment we got here, CY clearly explained how the night would work out and made sure everyone understood all the steps in throwing an axe, whether someone was a skilled axe thrower or a first-timer. From outlining the safety procedures to ensuring proper technique, CY went above and beyond to make sure everyone had the best night poss

We had a small group event at K1. We had a really good time and the racing was super fun. It was a little expensive on a per hour basis though....

Had an awesome experience here for my first time indoors Karting. Ted spent extra time with me to help my truly understand the circuit and the kart and it felt like a true 1:1 coaching experiencing and got me up to speed with a super competitive time. Anthony later set me up on a circuit with some people and managed to set some personal bests as well. These 2 are absolutely amazing and creating such a welcoming fun environment and would not hesitate to come back and crush a few more laps!

There was one racing racing towards me to bang and crashed my car same person over and over

Axe throwing session was an amazing time. Beautiful, clean, organized set up. Knowledgeable and very fun instructor AJ was super helpful, engaging and made sure everyone had a blast! It was my first experience and I was just so impressed with how professional everyone was and how much fun we had! Thank you so much AJ!

Had a blast at Autobahn Speedway for my birthday! My wife and I are both F1 fans and this was the perfect way to get ourselves in the driver?s seat and have some fun! JT (fellow F1 fan!) was super helpful and even took our pictures at the end to commemorate (race wins and podiums for both of us! ????????????)! Thanks JT and Autobahn! Definitely looking forward to our next race!

Great took my 9 year old son! had a blast .

This was so fun! Workers were very nice and helpful. 5 stars

So much fun! Our second race the car was noticeably slower, but still had a blast!

More fun than anticipated and Irv is fabulous! He explained writhing and offered a much needed assist getting out of the cart.

Big Shoutout to AJ who was our axe instructor. He showed us an amazing time and made sure we enjoyed every bit of every experience.

This speedway is in drastic violation of all known safety standards - please beware. One of our party sustained a severe injury as a result of another reckless participant, and received zero attention, sympathy, or refund from the woman who identified herself as the manager. We are looking into the appropriate state authorities to alert them to the hazardous conditions here.

Not for nothing, this place is VERY well organized. This was my son's second time here and honestly it won't be his last. They Also have are throwing, which I will definitely go back for!

This was our first time coming to Autobahn, and we had such an amazing time! The races were great and very easy to drive. Perfect for all ages!

My son had an amazing birthday here! Would highly recommend.

My friends and I did a pro race and I have to say that the cars are kinda fast and the staff was cool however it is definitely not worth the money at all which came to $38 for a 5 minute race, also they control your car and slow it down to an almost stop whenever they feel like so the actual high speed race is way too short.

Fun place to kart. Prices are a little heaper than the competition. Only thing to consider is that the karts are very very slippery. The tail slides out waaayyy to easily. Just keep that in mind when on the track and adjust.

I enjoyed the experience for my son's 16th birthday. We went to the Palisades mall Autobahn with addition family members. Matt and Billy were helpful and attentive preparing us for our race. It was so much fun whipping those curves on full speed. I will definitely do it again (ladies night ;)

Staff is always great, karts are fast and environment is always fresh and clean! Corrie and the rest of the crew always do a A+ great job handling the league racing always fun!

On April 17, 2023 I visited the axe throwing activity offered here. I got so busy and caught up and forgot to write my review but here I am today. Firstly, Donte is the number one reason our experience for axe throwing was fun. Most people would just assume you're just throwing the axe and that's it. But in reality a lot of science and knowledge is crucial to be able to educate people when participating in this activity and Donte definitely was knowledgeable. To spend the time to teaching us, sharing the d

Even tho I had 1st place and in the top rankings on time. I could?ve gone faster if it wasn't for inexperienced drivers. They should have a race of amateur or beginners, then have a race of ppl who are novice and above. Its quite annoying your paying for a race where you can't go at your full potential and get high scores. Race probably stopped at least 6 times. I had 3 good laps which was at the end of my 12 laps. They can't control these drivers for being out of control but at least separate the racers so

It was a great experience my son Alex loved it

I'm sorry I don't know anybody's names but the staff was absolutely amazing. Me and my friends had a great time

Great place to have lots of fun. The staff was very friendly and it was a great time overall.

Matt and JT are the absolute best!!! Just finished up my races and I couldn't have had a better time. The safety on and off the track as well as the experience was phenomenal and couldn't have asked for better. Will DEFINITELY be coming back soon :)

It was really fun and I have never experienced something like it and although I got last place in basically every race I still enjoyed, one thing is that it's VERY expensive

Had fun. Never saw any flags. Til checkered flag. Was hoping they would move slower cars off to the side faster. Showed up no waiting on busy weekend. Had fun will be back.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”

Are pool tables in arcades still good in this modern age?

Yes, pool tables in arcades remain a fantastic draw in 2025! Games like 8-ball or 9-ball offer tactile, skill-based fun that blends strategy and precision. Modern tables feature smooth felt, responsive cues, and vibrant designs, enhancing the classic experience. Arcades foster a social vibe with casual matches or competitive tournaments, appealing to all skill levels. Unlike digital games, pool’s physicality—lining up shots, feeling the cue’s weight—keeps it timeless.

Why are arcade prize games so exciting to play?

Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
