The men there are Awesome Super great men…read more Very knowledgeable & helpful Wish i could afford to have more upgrades done

We've been coming out to IMI for years, mostly because there are limited options in this area, and…read morethe kids enjoy coming here. I personally can't say I share their enthusiasm, but we continue to come because they enjoy it. That said, I honestly don't understand the recent price increase when the overall experience and facilities haven't improved. For one bike for a 10-year-old, we paid $30, which feels pretty steep for what you actually get. The track itself may be enjoyable for the kids, although I personally think the tracks could be better, especially compared to others throughout the state. Either way, the amenities and overall experience for spectators simply don't justify the increased cost. There are extremely limited shaded areas for parents and spectators. There's basically one small area with shade in a large, wide-open space where most people are sitting in direct sun. More shaded seating would make a huge difference. And the bathrooms are a major issue. The porta-potties are consistently disgusting, there wasn't even toilet paper available for the women. That is a pretty basic amenity to expect at a facility that is charging admission. I also honestly don't remember seeing a trash can anywhere, which makes the lack of cleanliness even more frustrating. I could understand an increase in price if there had been meaningful improvements to the facility. For example, there is plenty of room for at least a couple of pavilions since the tracks are spread out, or even just some additional benches and shaded seating. Cleaner, properly stocked bathrooms, additional porta-potties, and adequate trash cans would also go a long way toward improving the experience. But as far as we can tell, literally nothing has changed. And this isn't a complaint from someone who showed up once and had a bad experience. We've been coming here for years, and I actually left a review two years ago with the exact same complaints about the dirty and unstocked porta-potties. Two years later, we're still dealing with the same issues. The kids want to continue coming, but if you're going to increase the price, then the quality of the amenities and overall experience needs to increase as well. At $30 for one kid to ride one bike, I just don't feel the cost reflects what you're getting. Hopefully some of that additional revenue can actually go toward improving the facilities and making IMI a better experience, not just for the riders, but for the parents and spectators who spend their time and money there too.

This was a fun time & an easy to plan event! To make a reservation you need at least eight racers…read more (Spectators can come & watch, no charge.) We had ten racers & a group of spectators. Each racer got two 12 lap races, food & drink, one hour reserved seating, arcade tokens & top finishers got medals - plus all racers got to race together with a reserved time. The price was about $80 per racer. We paid separately for additional food for spectators. These go carts are electric, so no smell & pretty quiet. A few things to note, racers need to be at least 48 inches tall & if you have more than twelve racers you then split into two groups. Also, K1 has an Arrive & Drive option for just racing, it's first come first serve. The day we went was for a birthday. After checking in racers registered & signed waivers after which they got balaclavas & helmets. Instructions were given but it was rather hard to hear. Our racers had a blast...they loved it - it was a great experience. Right after racing our lunch was ready, it was served buffet style. We choose Cheese & Pepperoni Pizzas, BBQ & Buffalo Chicken Wings & soft drinks. There were no salad or vegan options. The pizza was good, however the wings were even better & delicious. Since we were a big group we had a private party room. The only outside food allowed was dessert. Our party ran smoothly, the staff was friendly & very helpful. All in all a great time!

Such a place to wind down from the weekend. My godson rather enjoyed it as did the other racers…read more Like everything else it's a bit pricey. Something to do in nice in a while but for me not a frequent adventure. The staff was nice and helpful and knowledgeable. They also give military discounts. As far as pricing I would think they would give junior drivers at a cheaper rate.

WOW! What a hidden gem! I haven't written a review in such a long time, but thought I'd give this…read moreplace a special shout out! We just happened to be driving up to Grand Lake to do a scenic drive around this gorgeous lake and came across this go karting place that my kids wanted to try out! It's a mom and pops kind of place, which we totally LOVE to support especially when it has a story w/ a BIG heart behind it. Check in was super easy, they give you tokens for go karting or bumper cars. Since it's a small place, the wait didn't take too long. Our family of 6 was able to rent 3 doubles and raced each other. The crisp fresh air and the view of mountains in the background made it even more special. The carts ran very smoothly, the exhaust weren't smoky like alot of places, and they even make it fun by pouring out buckets of water to make the grounds slippery during the ride.. felt like we were on Mario Karts. ;) For the bumper cars, I can tell the owner controlled some parts to make us spin just to give us a good laugh. I loved that! Just observing the place, I can tell there was so much labor of LOVE put into this wholesome fun fun fun place. There was a repair shop with a cart hanging waiting to be restored with lots of tools hanging - the owner must be a super handy man. This past weekend marked 20th year anniversary for Rocky Hi Speedway and we had the priviledge of meeting the owner! Such a friendly guy and my obervation were all correct. Sad to see this place up for sale since it hasn't gotten much foot traffic, but gathering from our convo I felt like he would love to keep it running. Therefore, I would like to put this place on the map and give a special shout out to the guy who put all his heart and time into building this place! Thank you for providing my family such a fun, safe and family friendly environment to enjoy the rockies! I really hope this place will stand for generations to come. We'll def be back!

Awesome place! Absolutely not racist. Those other people all came on the same day and probably were…read moretrashing the karts and got kicked out. Highly recommended here!

We came for a family racing day and had a great time! We purchased two racing sessions for the…read morego-karts. They offer both an upper and lower track. The upper level is larger with faster go-karts, while the lower level is a smaller track that's perfect for junior racers. Since I brought my daughters, we chose the junior track, and it was a great fit. Each racing session includes eight laps, and the operation runs very efficiently. As soon as one group finishes, the next group is loaded onto the track, so there isn't much downtime. After each race, everyone receives a printout with their race statistics and final rankings, which adds a fun, competitive touch. The facility has a nice observation area with plenty of seating for spectators. They also offer carnival-style food and snacks like chicken nuggets, French fries, cotton candy, slushies, and drinks. In the back, there are arcade games to keep everyone entertained while waiting for their race. Check-in was quick and easy using self-service kiosks. If you've raced before, you simply sign in. New drivers can register in just a few minutes, and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable throughout the process. One thing I really appreciated was the focus on safety. My younger daughter was bumped during her race, and the go-karts stopped immediately. The staff quickly came over to check on her and made sure she was okay before asking if she wanted to continue. That level of attention was reassuring and showed they take safety seriously. The only downside is that it gets pretty loud inside with the music, so you may have to raise your voice to have a conversation. Other than that, it has a fun, energetic atmosphere that's great for families, friends, and anyone looking for an exciting outing. Overall, we had a great experience, and the girls really enjoyed it!

Oh my gosh, people seriously pay this amount of money to drive go karts?! For these prices, you…read morecould spend an entire day at Waterworld or Elitchs! This is asinine. And how does it take some people 30 minutes to check in at the desk?
