    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!

    I can't say enough! I procrastinated taking any course from anyone because of my anxiety and fear…read more I have zero motorcycle/dirt bike experience. The coaches made me feel safe, they helped me get out of my head, they kept us hydrated and checked on us physically and mentally. (The summer course wasn't impossible buuuuuut I do wish I had done it in cooler weather but that's not their fault, it's hot in the south). I even impressed myself with my abilities by the end of the weekend. The coaches (Angel, Mat and Joe) all kept us laughing through the heat and fear but also pushed us and gave us very non judgmental and valid feedback/adjustments. They are so good at telling you what will make you perform better and ALSO showing you how to do it until you do get it. They WANT you to pass and it shows. The environment they created makes me now eager to learn more and considering my options at future training. Who knew a state required class at the right place with the right people could make me totally change my perspective on the culture too? 15/10 recommend. I even had my son certified with them (he's 19) and the staff were excellent mentors for him as well. plus the whole track area is really cool and it makes us wanna rush back to do the go carting. Im also blown away that they took someone like me who won't even ride a bicycle with no hands and made me able to ride a 400cc motorcycle! I feel so good about myself and am proud to have completed and it's all because of how they teach.

From learning to to start the bike, to riders looking to lower their lap times, Nola Riding Academy is there to help. My experience with Nola Riding Academy has been superb, and it has helped me tremendously. I went in eager to improve my technique to start decreasing my lap times, and Clint greatly helped me. I went for my second time the other day, and again had a fantastic experience. One thing that particularly stood out was the amount of track time I got for the low cost. For a cost that's a fraction of a track day of most tracks, I was able to ride at my leisure for four hours. I'm very excited to go back again!
