Pro Karting Experience is a no-frills karting facility. You drive up, bring or rent a go kart, and go racing! The staff is incredibly friendly. They also care about their equipment and the experience of their guests. I have not had a bad experience here yet. The first Sunday of every month, they host Toddlerdega, or an event where you can bring your own power wheels vehicle and younger kids can drive around the track. The event is from 9-11 am. The cost is $5 per driver and if you need to rent a power wheel for the day, it's an additional $20 for the session. The kids have such a great time and the other parents who attend have all been nice to meet. This is a good time to meet other parents with kids the same age (it's so hard as an adult to meet new people). Towards the end of the session, all of the kids can line up and participate in a grand prix. Recently, there's been so many participants that they've been racing kids by category. It's nice for a place to be so accommodating to toddlers. Our friends are planning a birthday party there. I'm excited to see what the experience will be like. read more

On Sunday afternoon, while the family was visiting, we took them to the Pro Karting Experience. We first parked, then went to their office to fill out paperwork and watch the safety video. We paid $20 for a single ride, plus $6 for registration and a helmet cover. Next, we went back to the building where the go-karts are kept. We put on our helmets and waited for our turns. The karts here are well maintained with great track layout. The karts are gas-powered and very easy to speed on the track. During our time riding, we really enjoyed the variety. The track boasts a mix of turns and straight stretches, providing plenty of opportunities for overtaking. The staff is very friendly, and the karts are great. ProKarting is a fantastic spot for family fun, and it's a great place to celebrate special occasions as well. read more

All the staff is very nice. The carts are very fast our experience was amazing. We came back and every experience was amazing.

My kids had a blast here for their birthday! Thank you for having an easy and fun experience for the kids!

We had a really good time running around the track for adults with a bunch of teenagers was entertaining to say the least. I do wish they would define the races because we just did a bunch of laps and said oh that's your three races when we had no idea how long any of the races were so I give them a four stars the cards were fun, but just the same read more

Very nice outdoor track. Well maintained and clean. Would recommend it for a fun day.

I absolutely love this place. Took my family, and all friends who visit us here as well. If you come during a week you will be able to get in and out quite fast and ride only with your family members; however, during weekend it is different story. Lot more people ride on a weekend and they allow 15 cars at once which makes it very busy to ride. But maybe you like that?! I recommend read more

Not very well maintain, just bare minimums. I think it needs a bigger investment to make it worth while

Truly AWESOME! I have been here for over a year and it's awesome. the employees are very friendly and nice, the track is actually good, and each lap is 6 minutes. one thing a little bad about it, though. The price. The price is 20$ for one race (6 minutes) and it's a little expensive to go there every day. But literally everything else there is awesome. They also host tournaments every Monday and Tuesday of the month. (registration starts at 6, and race starts at 6:30. Also, they have separated go karts. One for the adults and one for kids. What are the difference, you say? adult karts can go to 50+ MILES per hour. That's fast for a single go kart. The junior karts go slower but still fast. And if you are a kid, and you get 37 seconds on a race, you can move to the adult karts. It's truly just a beautiful place to go when you're bored. read more

Track was super crowded so it was impossible to go fast. Parents beware that their website says ages 5+ but the height requirement is 53" (which is definitely taller than a 5 year old), meaning only my 12 year old was tall enough. read more

They were super nice and it was definitely worth the money. They have a kids Sunday race too!

Brought my daughter to go ride some go carts. I'm from Reno. We were treated wonderfully everyone was very accommodating. Had a great time! Carts were great! Thank you! read more

This was a lot of fun! The karts were crazy fast. They do have juniorkarts for the smaller kids and it looks like they can modify the regular karts to go a bit slower for bigger kids. Either was it was a lot of fun. You of course have to sign waivers to participate and at first I was a bit nervous for my 7 yo but he did fine. The staff were friendly and courteous and very helpful. Had a blast. Would recommend. Was a bit pricey, spent $250 for 3 races for my family of 5 but the memories will last. read more

This was such a fun experience! We were here for about two hours and we got to race so many times. The workers were super attentive and really nice. My sister dropped her airpod on the track, and after 3 of the guys helped us walk through and look for it. Would definitely come again!! read more

NOT family friendly. NOT recommended. We went to this place at 11am on Saturday. They had us watch a 6 min video about safety and their rules. NONE of that was enforced. They let some guy drive like a maniac out there. He ran into my wife's go kart and my 8 yr old son's; this jerk ran into other people too. The Pro Karting management did nothing. They were more worried about me fighting the guy than they were customer safety. So if you're a drunken idiot that wants to go fast and crash into stuff then Pro Karting Experience is the place for you. However, if you're in St Pete on a family vacation avoid this place like the plague. Be ware. read more

Went to Toddlerdega today and it was awesome! It's kids / toddlers racing power wheels on their track. Large track but open for you to see them around the whole track. Rent a power wheel for $20 or you can bring your own and only pay $5. My son had such a fun time and the person on the track was great and energetic with the kids! They gave them snacks and Capri suns after which was great because they were sweating! It was from 9:00-11:00 and I believe they have it once a month (check their website or Facebook for the dates) I'll be back with my son every month! read more

Wow I must say this place is full of some go go go kart fun!! Terry; the owner is creative and passionate about the sport. He offered a private track race were he changed the track three times from beginners to amateur to pro league all in one sitting. If you're a need for speed road racer than Pro Karting Experience is the place you want to bring the friends and family to prove your ready to put the paddle to the metal! read more

Great time with our family! We would recommend! Would have liked to go longer but was fun!

Fun track. Had fun and thought the prices were reasonable. Karts go pretty fast. Only annoying thing was some kid going slow and blocking you from easily passing. Other than that had a blast read more

Ixavier, Connor, Ben and Lauren **made** our experience. They were super friendly and helpful; they had a bunch of tips to help us cut our times down. Also very professional dealing with the disrespectful clowns that raced before us. Safety and customer service are tip top here, thank you so much everyone!!! read more

We have gone to this go cart track 2 years in a row on our family vacation down to florida. I highly recommend this place for anyone that likes to do this kind of stuff. read more

Took my boys for a little Saturday night fun; we all loved it and will be back. They were surprised that it was a "real" track, being used to going to places like Zoomers in Fort Myers, where a smaller, more kiddie style track is available. I think they liked the size of the track and bigger carts! read more

So it was kinda cloudy driving here with my boys on Saturday...pulled in and yeah..ominous looking thunderstorm clouds appeared out of nowhere lol. We still went in and signed up for one race hoping the rain would hold off for the next 10 minutes. Of course it started raining as soon as we were getting into our go karts. The track was hella slippery and I suck at driving but OMG I HAD SO MUCH FUN. I felt like speed racer with my helmet on hahaha! Staff were very friendly and went over all of the safety rules prior to the race. The karts were fast--I am sure this would have been even more awesome on a dry track. And if I was fully on the gas lol. We easily got in over 15 laps. The 10 minutes or so seemed to last forever (for me anyways). My friends had a blast and know how to drift better than I do LOL. Will definitely be back on a *hopefully* sunny dry day. read more

Small but nice track, not too busy (even on the weekends when we visited), where you can get some go-kart adrenaline fun. Each 10 minute race costs $15 but if you purchase 3 races you'll get a small discount ($42). Make sure you wear close toe shoes, they're required for racing. read more

No one wearing masks, two hour wait time but would not take reservations. So unorganized and not taking any precautions during a pandemic. Walked out and will not be back. read more

Great karts, great service. But terrible drivers. 2 foreign children were racing and I was behind one of them and I got rammed into the grass. Later on the kid made me spin out and at the end they didn't do anything about it. Just asked if I was good to go and went back to watching us. Overall it's a fine establishment but the fact they didn't care about the dirty drivers is very annoying read more

Fun place, fast go kart! Good for adults. a little on the pricey side thou. Otherwise nice place

Super fun place and great customer service.. the front desk lady was really nice and everyone who worked there was great to work with. The only reason I didn't give a total five stars is because the advertisements is 45++ speeds and even the guy said 45++ both me and my brother used Gps devices that we use on our dirt bikes and motorcycles that very accurate and it said we didn't go faster then 10mph.. we really wanted to pick up in speed which is why we picked this place. I would recommend this place to everyone and would love to go back either way! Super fun super great people, nice. Area and nice track! read more

Had a blast here today! Safety is priority, Karts are super fast, great staff! They even have cones on the track to aim for to maximize speed. Our last race, one of the employees hopped on and raced us at our request. Recommend 100% read more

Took my son and his friend over to Pro Karting Experience this afternoon. At 5:00 pm, we were the only ones there. First rate experience. Very courteous at the check in bulging (across parking lot from track). We purchased a 3 pack ( each turn allows you to race for 6 minutes on track)) for $50. Depending on your speed, you can conceivably get 8 laps. Pit crew was very friendly and assured the boys with helmets . One of the attendants (forgot his name) also helped the kids by showing the best line to take around track to achieve fastest lap. Great experience and we will be back. read more

Great time. Terry was trying to teach me how to drive so I could beat my husband. Didn't happen, but I appreciated his help. He was very caring towards my kids too. Equipment was in great shape. The track was awesome. read more

Pro Karting Experience - Getting ready to race. - Race Tracks Near Me - St. Petersburg, Florida

We came for the first time yesterday. It was empty so we had the whole race course to ourselves. I'm not much of a go kart person but my fiancé loves them. It was fifteen dollars a person for one race and they tack on an extra five dollars for a card that I guess keeps your race times? I wasn't too clear on what the purpose of that was. I thought the price was a little steep for 8-10 minutes of racing. Also-you must wear closed toed shoes! I had on flip flops so I had to borrow a pair which was nice of them. The carts were very heavy and hard to turn. I wish there were more straight aways so I could really get up some speed! A good perk is that you can get a free race on your birthday. That is probably the next time I'll be back. My fiancé really liked it and said he wanted to come out once a week to race. It was a perfect fall day and the wind felt really good hitting my face. Much better activity than sitting on the couch watching TV. read more

Went here for fathers day this year... What a great time! The track wasnt too busy when we went (mid morning) and that allowed us to get in more time racing. The owner was pretty awesome to talk to as well. He upped the juice for us and the last two races we had, it was incredible! We just flew by! Over all I loved this place; the management and employees were great and the karts were spectacular. Will definitely go back again. -Quick McGee read more

I come here once a month with my daughter for toddlerdega, the power wheels race for kids. It's really a awesome event and only $5 if you bring your own for 2hrs. 9-11 on the first Sunday of the month. The owners and staff are awesome!! Always friendly and great with the kids. I've been racing since I was a kid and love to come here and race the karts cause they are fast and the track is awesome. I'm also 250lbs and the karts are powerful enough to move me right along with no problem. Definitely recommend this track!! read more

5 Star experience. New and very fast carts. Great track. Fun and helpful staff. Bring your friends and have a blast. Owner Terry, and Bobbi are very helpful and experienced. This is the best go karting place I have been too. Way fast and more fun outdoors. We brought in a group of 10 business professionals for a fun bonding day. Instead of the golf course we went go carting. Not only did we have a great time, but it lead to future business for us within our group. read more

Came here with family for a birthday celebration and it was a fun experience. Staff were friendly and all the equipment was clean and safe. The go karts were nice and comfortable to sit in as well. $20 for a 10 minute session or $50 for 3 10 minute sessions. The track was nice but bumpy in a couple of areas. Overall, a good time and a good local place to go for go karting. read more

Awesome!!! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! Equipment was in great condition. These are the fastest karts we have ever ridden. If you have physical issues it is a bumpy ride. I've had a spinal fusion after three broken vertebra though and I managed pretty well. We will certainly be back! read more
