It is really fun if you are just watching the races. If you go on a busy night EAT BEFORE YOU GO!…read more The food's not bad but I stood in line for 90 minutes to get some chicken fingers and Gatorade. I thought I was going to pass out. Fortunately I had a friend in line so I could take a break and go sit in the shade. I was waiting for him, but would go back every 15 minutes & he barely moved. I've stood in line before behind 20 people, but it has never taken me 90 minutes to get through. I'm being generous saying 90 minutes. It was a nightmare and ruined our whole night. You can go on the track and it is a great experience. Bathrooms are really accessible and I've never had to wait.

Decided to support my local hobby shop and maybe get some pointers from the staff. Google reviews looked decent. We walked in and the old dude just looked at us. No greeting. No welcome in, how you doing. I eventually said how you doing. Just and ok he says. I proceed to tell him I'm new to RC and just bought my first car. No response. Just a blank stare. Hmm ok I think. Well I need some nitro and glow plugs. How many? 2, 3,10, 15, he says in a short, unfriendly tone. Dude had no customer service skills. As I made my debit payment he glared at my wife and our baby. Maybe he doesn't like our brown skin kind in his store. Who knows? He was rude and made us feel uncomfortable and unwanted in his store. I would've been a repeat customer. I have a nitro car and buying an electric 6s car this week. I'm sure I'll need extra parts and batteries and a charger. Tacoma RC Raceway will never get a penny of that business. I'll buy online and not have do deal with a rude old dude that's ungrateful for my business. I'm a very loyal customer when I find a friendly welcoming business. That old dude was neither friendly or welcoming and made us feel very unwanted in his store. That's my experience there today and good for you if you've had a better experience.

If you like racing go karts then look no further…read more Wait - Went here with a group of 4 Saturday afternoon at around 4pm and waited about 1.5 hours. It is first come, first serve so you can't call to reserve. Unless you go weekdays and in the morning, expect a wait. Karts and Track - the karts go up to 50mph which was super fun. The track is also quiet long with the fastest recorded time at 77 seconds. It has a lot of great turns and a nice long straightway. Experience - you sign up for 15 minute sessions and I recommend more than 1 because you'll spend the first session just feeling out the track. They do print out your time sheet after so you can see your performance. The crew was friendly and quick to help. Price - compared to other karting places I've been, prices are more than reasonable. They do charge you for head sock if you don't have one. They have plenty of sitting area and lockers to keep your belonging. Bring a lock if you want it locked. I highly recommend bringing water if it's warm out and just in general to keep you hydrated. What's really neat is the other side of the karting area is an actual track for car/drag racing and you can go check it out while you're waiting. Plus there are better bathrooms on that side.

When running this track the thing that struck me was that even if you have an "off" you're not as likely to destroy your car - the runoff areas look pretty well designed. There are garages for rent which is really nice in the PacNW. :) Would be nice to have more access for spectating/photography but other than that if you've got the need for speed - connect with one of the groups that organize track days here and have a great time! Recently visited on a wet day. It's slower but you also learn more about the limits of adhesion and how your car behaves at the limits. More importantly for me it made for some cool photo opportunities.

Alan made the racing experience exciting with his commentary and Kindness. This place has so many slot cars to pick from. The track runs so smoothly and has fun twists and turns.

got up saturday morning looking forward to what I thought was going to be my first time on a 1:32…read moretrack... not unhappy to say that I have rarely been more wronger. turns out that despite what it says on the wall they also race 1:24 scale cars here; 'car' being the operative word. the cars you race actually look like cars, only smaller! about 96% smaller but they are obviously real cars with wheels and tires and electric motors and subject to sudden power loss just like full-size electric cars ;-) wasn't sure if I'd get any track time because it's a race day but I figured that since I was here I'd have a look at how the other half lives. fortunately for me a light turnout left an open space so I was able to borrow a car to get me some laps and enter my first competitive event! yea!! on the down side I still don't know much about the scale racing crowd other than the racers are genial and tracks are a little slower but way drivier; it's kinda like the old VHS -vs- BetaMax discussions. for the casual driver it's not really a question of better or worse, it's a matter of what appeals (more fastly or more drivey?) and what's available. 132 is a great facility featuring scale model racing on a couple of different circuits with a couple tracks currently off-line including a straight line along the wall. Alan is more a host than a front man, ready to share his vast knowledge and stories to entertain as well as educate and introduce people to the world of little cars. and of course parts and accessories and cars are available for purchase. If you never have you really should. if you did you will. if you do you know: race what you like, like what you race, but above all it's supposed to be fun :-) guess I'm gonna buy at least one car when I come back.

Have you guys ever tried sim racing?…read more We recently visited Gripwerx Simulation Racing, which was our first time checking out a racing simulation center. Gripwerx is conveniently located on the second floor of Redmond Town Center, and features a setup of racing simulators for an immersive experience. I've only seen a racing rig at PAX, so it was cool to see the number of setups for Formula and GT simulation. You pay for each 15-minute segment ($20 each) with a special buy three, get one session free deal. They also have all day passes available for purchase, which is great as a weekend activity. Gripwerx takes drop-in visitors but I also recommend booking a session online to guarantee a spot. Knowing that it's a simulation, you probably wouldn't think there's a physical aspect to it, but after an hour of immersive driving, my husband said that it did take some focus. With a variety of car models and courses available in their inventory, including local tracks like Pacific Raceways, Gripwerx was a fun experience and he'll definitely be going back for more!
