Default Where is the best Go Karting?

Hey I was looking for the best go karting in the north end area... I usually go to Traxx in Mukilteo. I want to know if anyone knows a better one around the Lynnwood-Shoreline area... Thanks for your help!!!

I'm afraid this will be one of those moments of disagreement.

The Redmond K1 is a 17 second course on electric karts. At $20 for 7 minutes it's the most expensive indoor offering in Western Washington. In my opinion it has the least interesting course design as well. K1 is a chain and the three facilities in Southern California are a much better experience. It is really a shame their only Washington offering is bubbling bucket of suck... I drive past that place twice every day and only drop in a handful of times each year.

I haven't heard anything positive about K1 in Redmond

I have heard the Grand Prix Raceway is a good place to try out in the south end (not sure about up north). Jerry, any personal experience at this place? (http://www.grandprixraceway.com)

Never heard of this facility. Therefore no I haven't heard of it. I appreciate the heads up.

The nerve of these guys opening a track withount consulting me first!

i dont do much gokarting but that does sound about right, it is expensive yet its the only one i can think of other than Traxx that would be somewhat up north.

Personally most of my go karting goes to Sykart if I ever go lol

Traxx is decent and it's in Mukilteo. They don't like it when you do a PIT maneuver on someone who is deliberately preventing you from passing. Ask me how I know

I passed by Traxx a few times when getting some powder coating done near by, never been in there, but if its a decent place I would totally be down for a group meet for the North boyz.
