    Purchase time
    Aubrey S.

    Maybe it's our mistake that we came on a Sunday. But we called when coming and were told the wait is about 1h long. Which didn't sound too bad. I'm not going to talk about the pricing, we paid $113 for 2 kids and 2 races, you have to buy $6 annual membership. We arrived at 3pm, by 3:15pm purchased our races. They had 1!!!! Birthday party running at the same time. We were told that parties have priority and understand that but we did not expect that they would run the party ONLY for the next 2 hours. It's now 5:56pm, the kids did one race and next one would be in over an hour!!!! I wasn't aware that the parties have a PRIVATE use of the racetrack with no break in between. if we were told we'd spend 3 hours waiting for one race we would have made a better choice than wasting Sunday waiting. Will not be back! Will not recommend this place to anyone. Go somewhere else, the wait is not worth it.

    Seems excessive for 2 races. Mandatory annual license fee?  Seriously??  A bit desperate in my opinion.

    This place has changed. It used to feel friendly and welcoming, but now the employees come across as robotic and inflexible, as if even a small, reasonable request causes confusion. We asked to be upgraded to the 3rd package they have, offering to pay the difference. They refused it outright, telling me I need to purchase a whole new set. Is that all that matters to you, the money grab? $26 a race seems a bit excessive to me. As a business, you can't always rely on rigid policies alone. Customer satisfaction should still matter, and some accommodation within reason goes a long way. This will be the last time I spend my money here. Management should take note: you're losing customers one unsatisfactory experience at a time.

    Go to the Valencia location -- you'll get way more bang for your buck. It's literally about a 15-minute extra drive up the 5 from the Sylmar location, and it's 100% worth it. I've been to MB2 Valencia multiple times and always had a great experience. Music playing, good energy, tons of arcades, food, drinks (beer)-- it actually feels like a fun outing. I brought my family to Sylmar expecting something similar and was very disappointed. We tried overlooking a lot, but what really got me was the pricing. At Valencia, everything runs on a point system -- a go-kart race is around 50 points (~$12 per person). At Sylmar, one single race was $26.99 per person, plus a mandatory one time annual membership fee (~$6.99). I ended up spending about $70 for my two kids to race one time. The only reason I paid was because I promised them go-karts after a successful school year. I spent way more money for far less to do than I ever have at the Valencia location. At the end of the day, I guess it served as an experience to know never to go there again. I'd honestly say ignore the good Yelp reviews and make the short drive to Valencia instead -- it's a completely different experience.

    Highly recommend!!! We have our own room. Boys had a wonderful time. Everything what you need they give it to you.

    Five years later, my son is having a blast again. Great place, we are here on a Sunday, not too many people. Got to race right away.

    Had a great experience with their birthday package. Everything was easy and clear. Staff was friendly and professional. The complex is huge and clean. Every kid and parent had a blast. Natalie was a great host!

    Another birthday party we were invited to MB2 . Very spacious, clean , professional track. It's indirect and carts are electric. Low noise and no smell. Place provides the helmets and carts. Interior is amazing and private room was VIP LEVEL. Highly recommended small arcade for kids after getting tired of driving ( IF that is even possible) haha. We brought our own food . It can get busy during the week but weekends early is better . Outside parking was great

    See all

The service on the day was very disappointing. Often, we were unable to find our party host. The food was very delayed coming out despite my asking multiple times beforehand that it be delivered promptly. They do not provide any water to guests - part of the party package is one drink ticket per kid and the options are bottles of water, gatorade, or soda. You can imagine that every kid picked gatorade and was over-sugared and dehydrated. I asked for pitchers of water. The arcade is a room with about 10 games - only half of which work + all of which are filthy. They are very expensive. Our races started almost 30 minutes late. What should have been a fun party ended up being an extra hour long, and really expensive. I have not recommended this venue to friends.

The smell hit me first: burning rubber mixed with ozone, a bouquet that spoke of countless battles fought on these very tracks. I approached the counter, signed the waiver with trembling hands. This was it. My initiation into the world of electric velocity. The safety briefing washed over me. Speed limits. Racing lines. Flags. But my mind was already elsewhere, imagining the perfect lap, the flawless execution of every turn. Then I saw it: the kart. Sleek. Silent. Deadly. I lowered myself into the molded seat, gripped the steering wheel. The moment my foot touched the accelerator, everything changed. The instant torque slammed me back into my seat! No engine roar, no warming up--just pure, unadulterated acceleration that felt like being shot from a cannon! The first corner approached rapidly. I braked--perhaps too hard--and felt the rear end slide ever so slightly. My pupils dilated. This was it. This was the dance. Turn two. I remembered the instructor's words. Brake early. Apex late. Accelerate through. My body moved on instinct, finding the rhythm, becoming one with the machine. By lap three, everything crystallized. The track revealed its secrets to me. That slight banking in corner four. The deceptive tightness of the chicane. Each revelation was a flavor explosion on my palate--bitter defeat transformed into sweet victory! Other racers surrounded me. I could feel their presence, their fighting spirit! We weaved through corners in formation, each seeking that perfect line, that extra tenth of a second. When I finally executed a flawless outside pass on the long straight, my entire body surged with electricity! The laps blurred together in a symphony of speed. Left, right, brake, accelerate--a recipe perfected through repetition, each iteration bringing me closer to nirvana. And then, too soon, the checkered flag. My final time flashed on the screen. I stumbled from the kart, legs shaking, heart racing, a massive grin splitting my face. The other racers gathered around the timing board, comparing battle scars and bragging rights. This wasn't just fun. This was transcendent. This was speed distilled to its purest essence, served at precisely the right temperature to ignite the soul! K1 Speed had delivered a five-star experience that left me hungry for more.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Their own website clearly states to arrive at 6pm, with no mention of calling ahead, no reservation system, no waitlist. So that's exactly what we did. We arrived on time only to be turned away because the spots were already gone. Apparently there's an unwritten rule that regulars know to call ahead, information conveniently absent from their website. When we asked the general manager, Cameron, why this wasn't communicated anywhere publicly, her repeated response was essentially "we're popular", offered with the self-satisfaction of someone who sees no problem with the situation. No apology. No empathy. No acknowledgment that their website is actively misleading customers. Just a shrug and a reminder that this is "how you learn for next time." My son was in tears. What's most frustrating isn't the miscommunication, it's the attitude. A good manager finds a way to soften the blow, acknowledge the failure, and make a family feel heard. Cameron did none of that. When I pointed out that if calling ahead is policy, it should be stated publicly, she had no real answer, just more deflection about how popular they are. K1 may be too busy to care about losing one family's business, but we had been planning a birthday party there. That won't be happening.

I also didn't get to try the batting cages because they were closed 15 minutes before midnight, even though they advertised this spot closing at midnight. The Laser Tag activity was a pretty big space and I didn't find it stuffy at all, which was good. The VR next to the Laser Tag though was stuffy but at least there was an overhead fan. I personally don't trust how well they clean and disinfect the head masks, that's why I didn't try it. The arcade area was pretty limited in terms of games but they're always a good activity to do as an alternative from the other activities that have lines. Didn't get to try the mini-golf or the "bowling" area due to time. I like the outdoor patio and the ambiance of the string lights when you want to get some fresh air. Lots of families seated wherever they wanted and kids had a lot of stuff to play around with. Looking to see how this spot will compete with Round1 opening up soon in the mall. The water cup station is super handy, but they didn't want to refill the waters near the end of the night and the cups also, so we had to ask at the bar. I like that there's a good amount of staffing here who were all working hard. There's a few bathrooms spread out in the place. Parking is big in the back, just gets pretty dark.
