If you have a weak stomach, eat after your experience. This place provides a video game experience of Mario Go Kart. The Kart's are electric & go about 14 mph, if you think that's not fast enough, my iPhone went flying out of my cart & I found it on the track. Our experience had each one of us smiling from ear to ear with cramps in our cheeks! If you are looking for a great time to share with family, friends or break the ice on a first date. This would be a great place to share a moment with any person. You are guaranteed to have a great time! The Karts are a bit tiny, I'm 5'11" and found myself hitting my shin, but a little pain never hurt anyone. The group agreed the Tokyo slide was Epic & was super fun to do while turning. I'll definitely be returning!

    OK so I want to love Battle Racing, but unfortunately this place leaves a lot to be desired…read more I recently went here for my cousins birthday because he wanted to live out his inner child dreams of doing real life Mario Kart. We went in a large group, and got to try out both the racing and the shooting game they offered. The actual race is so fun - you can buy a package to do two races that's around $25, but they offer group discounts and deals the more tickets you buy. I had a blast racing the go-karts, and it was even more fun because I beat my entire family much to their dismay. While the go-kart experience is fun, the entire experience of Battle Racing is pretty mediocre. The building itself is pretty run down, and the staff is not very welcoming or helpful. The place doesn't have a lot to offer in terms of other games to play while you wait your turn, and they also do not offer reservations and the experience is first come first served. I would imagine that creates a weird experience if you aren't the first ones to arrive like we were. There is only one bathroom for the entire space, so if the place is full you have to wait quite a bit. They also offer food and private party services, but seemed pretty unprepared for our private party which my cousin booked in advance with time details and food requests. I think this place could be really successful if they spruced the place up a bit, offered a bit more organization when it came to booking, and had a more welcoming team. There is definitely potential, but it missed the mark for our party this weekend. There is a free parking lot in the back of the building, as well as street parking. Overall, if you want to go-kart race here I would be prepared for an in-and-out experience as it's not a place you want to linger.

    Take a 5k race Run it at night along Beach and Ocean…read more Add Glow Stick, Lots of neon - Men and Women in Tutu and Flashing Spiked Mohawks All Pumped up along the route with sounds that I am usually trying escape from during Ultra Music Festival ( Skrillex may have been running next to me at one point ) On Stage entertainment that was a Mix of The Donkey Show, The Pussy Cats Dolls show and The It's Raining Men Video And you have the Glow Run - I am going to say it was a great event for a first time on Miami Beach and good activity for first time runners and families because kids like shinny glowing things !!! The one thing they could have done better is actually have lights and a computer at the the packet pick up " It's 2012 and paper is dead " said Cecelia - she was right. We had to use our iPhone lights to help the staff. The other is to have the Medals table fully staffed for the whole event - I was in the last wave and had to go fish my own medal out of a box and many people did not get them because the staff already left - probably at Wet Willies. I will be doing this event again next year - I suggest you check it out. I am thinking UYE Sports event !!

    Let's begin with saying...I earned a finisher medal ....AND it GLOWS!!!! Second, great turnout -…read morefun - and festive. Third, this did not earn five stars because they did not plan well for the packet pick ups; they were disorganized and unprepared for the large crowd. A friend of mine picked up my packet the day before, so I had to wait a long time for my team-members to pick up theirs. I finally got annoyed enough to force my volunteerism...yep..I went behind the table and helped them disseminate the packets. They struggled with finding names on a list, because...wait for it...no one thought to have lights at the tent for a night time event. Beside the above debacle ...this was so fun..and I actually improved in my time- even with a cold. I met lots of fun people and the music was great. I will recommend this for teams and veterans...first timers may feel a bit overwhelmed with running on the sand and the lack of cheerleaders on the path.

There was so many good choices that I wished I went to each food truck. I must say the curly fries in one food truck was amazing as well as the churros! The wontons were small but very filling at the same time. I got the regular jalapeño and cheese wontons but it didn't come with fries unfortunately. The egg rolls weren't the traditional egg rolls so you should give it a try! I got the seafood and philly cheese steak ones. Supposedly its the more popular ones but since I'm asian I wasn't quite used to it. Anyways, our luck ran out so my friends and I had to run under the concession stands to where the dog race was at. So while you're there you can gamble on which dog runs the fastest!

Parking was easy and free in the lot. By the time we left at around 9 pm, the parking lot was a little hectic. They also have a DJ who is set up in one of those old VW vans. We were able to grab seats at one of the tables that was available. There aren't many... I noticed a lot of people their own chairs. There were about 22 food trucks. I'll be honest, I don't know much about food truck scene but it seemed like a good variety to me. My favorites were the Taco Fresh and Liquid N2 Ice Cream food trucks.

    The Miami Beach Halloween Freaky Four Miler was my most recent 5K, and I cut my time from my last…read moreevent by 2 minutes. #yeahme! As the name implies, it was a Halloween themed event and I went dressed up as #thatguy who didn't rock a costume. The race had both a 5K and Half Marathon component; I did the 5K and will comment on that. Originally - up to two weeks before - the race was supposed to start from Parrot Jungle and run across the causeway ending up at Nikki Beach. However, about 3 days after registering I was advised it was changing , supposedly over construction on the causeways (which I didn't notice any on this particular day). Still and all, the race organizers did a pretty good job with keeping me informed. Unlike the previous 5k, they required packet pick up in advance (most likely to get you to spend money at one of the sponsor stores #tinfoil). The course wasn't too bad; we started running along South Pointe Park to the access walkway of the marina, eventually thru Ocean Drive and back through the park. Signage was actually pretty clear and there were water & Gatorade stations at about third points of the course. The food spread after the run wasn't too bad. Besides the usual bananas and orange slices, they had blueberry pancakes and a tasty scrambled eggs with onions and red peppers. I wish they would have also had chair massage stations to help runners stretch like they used to have back in the earlier editions of the run.

People seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves and the organizers and volunteers did a wonderful job of making sure that everything went smoothly. The route was fun and offered many beautiful views of Miami along the way. The finisher medal is super cute and makes me smile every time I look at it. Really, I have no complaints at all and recommend it to serious and novice runners alike. This was a laid-back race experience in a beautiful setting and I can't wait to run it again next year. Five stars all around.

    Ughh 5k on groupon- I should have expected it to suck. I bought a groupon for 60 bucks which…read moreadmitted 4 people me, my boyfriend, my friend and her fiancee came. I had never done a color run so I was excited. It was the most disorganized run ever. Upon check in there was a giant line I am not sure what for because the registration table was not taking people from the line but anyone who just walked up. I noticed this not long after I waited thankfully. Each person had to pay an additional 5 dollars cash even with the groupon. They did not ID you or have you sign any paperwork. And they gave you 1 pack of color powder each. The area pre/post race had a couple of food trucks and vendors. In the middle was a BIG stage with a dj and some hype man type guy trying to get the energy up. There was also a woman dressed like a broke ass raggedy ann up there doing the same. The wave we were in was the 6pm one. The course itself was a joke and so unorganized that a ton of people thought the race started so they ran off. The rest of us had to wait for them to return back before they officially started the race. You had to run the course twice to complete a 5k which means you had to actually exit the course through the finish line and try to make your way through a huge crowd in the post race/dj area and enter in the starting line again. In the course the actual track was way too narrow for all the people there. People were zigzagging between others and cutting off parts of the course. I'm pretty sure I inadvertently missed a whole chunk of the course because It wasn't marked off correctly. They do throw color on you pre race, mid race and at the finish line. You end up getting covered even if you aren't trying. They have a lot of black lights in the mid race and post race area so it pops the powder color. Overall I'll never join this 5k again total rip off. A lot of kids were there and seemed to be having a blast so for families this could be a great healthy alternative to watching the Disney Channel on a saturday night.
