Description
An all-new form of entertainment has arrived in Jersey City! This 80,000 square foot brand new indoor karting facility features the fastest electric cars in the US, with speeds of 45mph, and tracks developed by NASCAR racers. Prepare to speed!
The Jersey City facility allows up to 10 drivers to compete in side-by-side action at a time on each track. Each race consists of 15 laps around the circuitous course. It's you against the clock.
Those involved with the Pole Position Raceway brand includes 2004 NASCAR Champion Kurt Busch, 7-time AMA Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath, X-games freestyle gold medalist Mike Metzger, and several dozen professional car and motorcycle racers. The company's motto is "built for racers, by racers," and they feel that everyone has a desire to go fast. Think karting is just kid's play? Well, think again. The average customer age at the other facilities is 31 years old, and indoor kart racing is fun for the entire family and both casual and serious racers alike.
Best of all, the karts use electric technology so there are no fumes! "The idea of building a green facility was very important to me," Farage added. "Electric technology has made significant advances during the past few years, and that really influenced our decision to bring it to this area. We have adult karts for racers who are at least 56 inches tall and separate junior karts for kids who are at least 48 inches tall."
