    This race track just recently reopened a few years ago. I didn't know it was here until about a…read moremonth ago or so. I think most people don't know it exist. But, they will soon. They have races on Saturday nights. Anyway, I was able to see the whole race track from where I sat which was at the top of the bleachers. I found no problem about parking or leaving. I just pulled in and parked and ready to go, I just drove on out and left. So, no traffic problems. There can be a line at the concession stands. However, if you go early - there won't be. But, the later you go, a line forms as more and more come to the race track. The food I got here was delicious. I went two times. First, I got nachos and cheese and a Dr. Pepper. They put plenty of melted cheese on my nachos. In fact, they put too much cheese on it. So much, I didn't need all the cheese. I noticed others had too much cheese on theirs and they too- had didn't use all their cheese. Admission was only $12. They do bathroom facilities here with running water. They even had soap so you can wash your hands. There were no lines at the bathrooms that I saw. The races were entertaining. Looks like most race car drivers that come here know what they are doing because they were just a few cautions. The feature races started late about 9 or 10pm. The big race was over a little before 1am. So, I was tired but enjoyed the races and was glad I came.

    This Motorsport is about 25 minutes away from downtown NOLA but if you have kids or you are a kid…read moreat heart, this is the place to go. They have pizza, beer, margaritas and a blue electric lemonade for the adults. There are arcades, go cart and the CLAW. There's also a DOTS ice cream machine and souvenirs. So fill up your game card and bounce to the music in the background and enjoy all the flashing neon colors. We came during Halloween so we were able to shoot some zombies. Always be patient as there will be a wait and remember your manners as there are little ones who are out enjoying with their families. We always want to make a good impression on our future leaders and caretakers.

    I wasn't the one who made reservations, but everything appeared to flow smoothly and we had a great…read moretime. We arrived a bit later than expected... like at least a half hour. But we were able to get ready for the track within 10 minutes. If you look at the map... it's a HUGE track. It's sectioned off, though -- not sure what the tiers and levels are and such, but it's pretty epic. The waiting room has a couple racing games and claw machines, and there are electronic monitors and QR codes for you to sign waivers. When called to the back to prepare to race, there's a 2 minute video, and the helmets are neatly organized on the shelves by size for you to pick from. Once we got outside, we showed our tickets and were told which cars to sit in. They're kind enough to adjust the seat and wheel for you if you aren't comfortable. They broke down what each colored flag means, and we were off! It was fun... and my closed helmet made for some fun acoustics, humming the Mario Kart themes as I cruised down the track. Everyone had a blast -- I braked on my turns because of how I normally drive, so that definitely had me ranking low, but I enjoyed otherwise! I would absolutely do it again, and I need to get back into go-karting more broadly. If you're in the area, definitely pay them a visit!
