Ok, so I work freelance on a television show that takes us to various racetracks to follow a…read more4-Cylinder Enduro series in the Midwest. Anyway, I've been to a lot of racetracks, and honestly, I really like this one! Its tiny - the track and the stands, but it had a VIP section, and the people that worked there were very nice, and put up with our cameras and running around. They had a great beer selection (not that I could drink) and the food wasn't your typical track food - it went beyond cheese burgers and fries. And of course, you have your regular race fans - its always better in Wisconsin!

Had a blast with my bf! We went twice. $3.00 admission. A lot of families went too. You can bring…read morekids and they may ride with you. Went around 3-4 times per round. The only thing is that the kids that are still young but are tall enough to drive, don't know how to drive and end up hitting you like it's bumper cars and then you might end up stuck or the wrong way on the track.

Big Chief Go Karts has the potential to be a fun family activity. The outdoor track itself is nice,…read moreand I can see why people are drawn to it. Unfortunately, I can't recommend it for younger kids because the safety measures simply aren't where they should be. There was very little guidance from staff, no shoulder harnesses, and no padding on the steering wheel. During parking, be prepared for kids crashing into the back of your kart, which resulted in more than a few cases of unexpected whiplash. What concerns me most is that this isn't a new issue. If you read through previous reviews, you'll find the same safety concerns being raised going back nearly 10 years. At some point, this stops being an oversight and starts looking like a choice. Height requirements alone aren't enough... there should also be a minimum age requirement (I'd suggest around 13 years old). For comparison, we also visited Tom Foolery's go-karts during our trip. They were actually $1 cheaper and had shoulder harnesses, padding, and a system that automatically slows karts down during parking and to help manage accidents. I truly hope Big Chief addresses these concerns, because with better safety standards, this could be a much different review.

In New Jersey, we lost 3 great dirt tracks for this very same reason; town's population grew and…read moremoved into areas that became closer to the tracks. Our famous track, Flemington Fair Speedway, the country's fastest 5/8 mile D-shaped dirt track is now gone (1915 to 2002). Flemington grew and property became more expensive. The track's property, once out in the middle of farm fields, became more expensive, property taxes raised, so the track closed so Flemington could build a multi-use town center and a Loews on the property. Most of our dirt tracks were once in the middle of nowhere, then the towns kept creeping closer and closer to the tracks. Original home owners couldn't complain about the noise, but the 2nd owner of the houses can. And did. New York state, Connecticut, Maryland tracks all suffered. Same with Ascot Park in LA.

It is pretty cool that students can now letter in racing as a sport. The atmosphere was fun, the food was good, the beer was inexpensive, and admission was reasonably priced.

It is a high banked 1/2 mile track that continues to improve as time goes on. The racing has always been great, the track had hit some low spots in the past with different owners. Now the last few have improved the facilities greatly. The racing is still great. They offer a number of different classes and normally put on a good show. Many of the Wisconsin drivers that raced here early in their career have gone on to the national series.

I would've given a five star rating but the track crew wasn't able to get the track watered enough for good racing until the last race, the feature for the IRA 410 winged sprints. Three classes of open wheel cars and we watched follow the leader on the bottom of the track with the winner coming from the front row for 15 races or more. Fastest qualifier was the very first car with the track drying up and becoming a slip and slide and a slow one groove track all night. I have never seen a dirt track watered on the top and bottom with nothing put in the middle. The top was not working until the last race. Four of us drove 5 hours to see the show only to wonder why are they not getting this track fixed/watered. NOT ACCEPTABLE!! Probably will never come back...

The room was clean, beds where made, the floors honestly looked freshly swept or mopped. The a/c worked great and no smell to the room! Room service needs to be called in order for them to come to you, but I called around 2:30pm for new towels and they brought them not even 10 mins later! The showers are a good size and the bathrooms were clean! My lack of stars is actually for the pool area + arcade. I hate the time limits on things like the hot tub and warming pools. As well as not enough tubes for the lazy river/ rides! The arcade is also more for younger kids but no issue there other than the workers! The card machine ate $80 of cash and they said there was nothing they could do about it! I had to call and complain a few times for them to offer money back. But no one working on site was any help at all. Honestly horrible staff other than front desk and the room service! Overall super fun experience! 26F, 26M, 17M, 18 month baby and two 60yos!

I decided on this place since they had a few unique slides and such a unique look! plus you got 2 parks in one. I am not a go kart person and they have quite a lot of them. My husband enjoyed those. I just watched. I really wanted to try the roller coasters and I was so lucky with NO lines. The 4 wooden coasters are rough and very intense rides. Would I ride them again? Probably not. But I was so glad I could try them. The waterpark was fun. I did spend most of my time in the indoor portion. However, I really enjoyed the lazy river outside. The crazy wave pool with the 9 foot waves ... scary and crazy... Also not for me but I enjoyed people watching. The rotating slide is really why I was there. I never been on something like this. I think it's the only one in the USA and wow was it weird. It was really fun and different and something I will be probably never experience again. It can give you a little bit of motion sickness due to the movement but if that's not an issue for you, you should be good. I also love a good hot tub which they had. I definitely recommend and would love to come back. It was just so unique and fun.
