Action Karting

This was my first time karting here. I came down with my 6 and 8 year old daughters, who were participating in a birthday party.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating, even though we were running a bit late. They took time to explain safety rules without being intimidating, and we’re very encouraging for my 6 year old when she got scared– even allowing my wife to do a first lap in the track with her. The carts are quick, safety is clearly a priority, and customer service is great. I highly recommend you go check this place out and spend 12 minutes on their track!

Came here with a bachelor party and had a great time. They are running a great special for $ 25 for the first 12 minute session and $ 20 for subsequent ones. This lets you ride the 50mph carts (which I really have to disagree, did not feel like 50 mph –I am an experienced driver/​racer and the carts MAYBE got up to 30 – 35). If you’d like to ride the 85mph carts you need to qualify on a timing lap with the 50mph carts first, and they are also ~$ 75 or so for the session.
The staff was over the top friendly, and everything really seemed well put together. They provide the track suits and helmets — keep in mind you will sweat your ass off in these things, but part of the experience.
There was a bit of a line when we went, but we were able to hang around for a bit and go to the gas station fown the street for some refreshments.
If we are in town, we’d probably stop by again — great activity!

This place is a blast for the whole family! You get 10 laps a session, your first and last lap are not timed so it will show 8 laps on your time sheet. If you are a skilled driver you can get the karts up to there top speed of 55mph. That means driving smooth and not breaking too hard. Weekdays are slow so you can get on the track right away. If you insist on coming out on a weekend i would suggest coming out as early as possible or you will have to wait. Love the atmosphere and friendly staff. Staff will give you tips if you ask.

My boyfriend and I went a few weekends ago. The owner had given my boyfriend a free day since my boyfriend had sold him his Harley. I’m not much of an adventurous/​go carting kind of girl. But I felt super safe as they did the safety demo and helped me get a helmet etc. I have a super small head, but they had a helmet that fit really comfortably.
What made the day though was how much fun my boyfriend had! He talked about it the rest of the day. I lost the «race» going slow and steady… next time I’ll try to go a little faster. But thanks for the bonding experience and putting a smile on Todd’s face: D
Fun day! We will be back!

I had a free day while visiting my sister here in Colorado to do what I wanted since she had work. Since I love a good go kart session, I decided to look up some places. This is the first and only outdoor place I really stumbled upon that was nearby, and I’m glad I did.
I called to make sure they were open and didn’t have any events and then headed on over at around 9:30 in the morning. I was the only one there so I got to do a 10 lap session on my own. They provide all you need to have a good experience (helmets, gloves, and suit), but they didn’t hound me on rules as some places do. They made sure that I personally had a good time. The track was a lot of fun with a sick backdrop of Colorado. A view I don’t usually see in the suburbs of Los Angeles.
I ended up doing 2 more races after that, it gets cheaper as you add races. My second race was with a couple others which was enjoyable. Logan even gave me some awesome tips that really helped me out on my third race! (Thanks again for a good time).
Everyone was super nice there and I will DEFINITELY be returning when I hit up Denver again.

My boys (8 and 9 years old) had a wonderful experience. They were suited up and trained quickly. It is a wonderful outdoor course and they were put in a group with other first time drivers. We would definitely go back.

The staff has been super friendly with my son and all the kids I’ve seen race here. Adults and youth race together which is awesome! If you want to «race», Action is the place to go!

Bought this as a Groupon and decided to try it out. Showed up on a Wednesday afternoon and they accepted our Groupon no problem. A short wait on the bleachers watching the race on the track and then a quick safety meeting going over the flags and basic track rules then off to get your race suits. The employees were a little to the point but I felt it was for my safety and to expedite the process. After getting helped picking my suit, helmet, and safety gear, it was off to the karts and the line up for the track. The karts were slow to accelerate but once up to speed they were fast and the racing experience was awesome! 10 cars on a ¾ mile track with high speed S curves, a hairpin, small straights and high speed corners, the racing experience was fun and super intense! After we were all pumped up on adrenaline and ready to go again to improve those track times of which you get a printout.
Felt like a small business, but in a good way where your experience/​safety was important. Good excitement value for dollar and we will go back!

Friendly, helpful staff. Karts move fast. A couple of turns in the course are challenging to master, so you can keep coming back to improve your course time. Helpful print outs of your course time and placement against other racers. Track may be getting a bit weathered in a couple of spots.
You can rent karts that are twice as fast once you master the course, but expect to pay $$ for those.

Some friends and I went here and totally LOVED it! It really is a thrilling place to go out and race. Beautiful surroundings too, since it’s located near the hogback.

Our experiences couldn’t have been more different than the negative reviews. I’ve been to Action Karting a half-​dozen times with adults, kids, and mixed groups. The staff has been hugely helpful (especially the lady at the front desk!) and have taken great pains to put the young kids out in appropriate groups. They are very safety conscious (as they should be since the karts are so quick). The track has a great mix of long straights, fast turns and a diabolical hairpin. The layout manages to be accessible to 7-​year olds while difficult enough to lure experienced drivers back repeatedly. I like the place and go back whenever I can.

A truly great place to have fun. My daughter and I come here quite often, and we never had any problems using our Groupons. The staff is always nice and helpful if you need any pointers. We can’t wait to go again!

My girlfriend picked up a couple of Groupons for Action Karting a while back and we finally found the time to get out there on Memorial Day. We met a couple of friends there and the 4 of us joined 6 – 7 others on the track for 10 insanely fun laps. I love driving fast in general (shhh) and when you’re a few inches above the ground in a kart 55 mph feels much faster than in a car. We had a such a good group of drivers that a few of the dudes that work there jumped into karts and joined the fray. It was really cool racing with them as they have the track down. What an awesome time!
The Groupon was good for a 10 lap session for $ 20, it normally costs $ 35. What was way cool is they gave that price to the other two people in our group. All the employees I dealt with were super nice and very knowledgable. They lead you through the process of learning about racing and getting you suited up the action. They provide a helmet, gloves, neck brace, and fire suit. All you need to do is show up in some decent shoes.
I raced a couple of times a while back with my company, you can reserve the track if you have a group of 8. It was really cool that they changed up the track, you now run in the opposite direction and some turns have been tweaked.
All in all a seriously killer way to spend an hour or so. I can’t twait to get back up there and run some laps!

Went last week with my 2 girls — ages 8 and 10. They’d never done anything like this and were a little nervous.
Called ahead to find out what to wear — cool clothes (it’s summer) like tank top and shorts and closed toe/​closed heel shoes. No crocs.
When you arrive, you’ll go through a safely session which made me feel confident that these folks are serious about watching us on the track. Then, you’ll go back inside and get suited up with full face helmet, neck brace, full body suit and gloves.
The kids got kid-​sized carts that were still fast — this isn’t like Lakeside — these cars are fast! They time your laps and when you are finished you get a printout of all your laps. Very cool.
Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and safety focuses. We will be back. Taking the relatives when they visit.

It’s the day after going to this place and my knuckles ache, my biceps are throbbing and I’m pretty sure I’m going to have a bruise on several parts of my legs.
It was AWESOME.
This isn’t your average kiddie go-​karting track. The cars can reach up to 65 – 70 mph and you have to put on a race suite, helmet, gloves and neck brace before you even get in your go-​kart, which looks like a go-​kart on steroids.
I am fairly certain this is a family operation, or pretty close to it. The staff was incredibly courteous without being sugary (I mean, this is the fast-​paced world of go-​karting here, no time to tread lightly). Even though they were pushy at times with gear and safety, I felt it was for my own benefit. To look at the gear covered arms, you wouldn’t think it, but they were incredibly organized and kept things running like clockwork.
I don’t know what the cost was since it was a company outing, but I would imagine it would be worth doing again.
