LeMans Karting

Place sucks. Drive an hour to get there after they said they would allow my kids to do the «training» session and then wouldn’t when I got there. Crappy service.
K1 is MUCH BETTER!

The people who work here are super amazing, informative, and courteous. If you’re coming in with a large group you can make reservations ahead of time. Super fun but it’s a bit pricey. $ 20 for 10 minutes so it can add up.

I was here for a corporate event and this is one of the worst place to have a corporate event. We were supposed to have lunch and was provided by LeMans Karting. I don’t know what they had in mind but they fell short of the food by almost half. They ran out of food and plates, And this was a pre registered event so they knew how many people were coming. When they ran out they went to make more food and took them an hour. The quality of food was the worst i have seen.
Now on the racing itself. The cars were pretty ok but the people who work there think they are working for F1 racing. I was asked to leave the race due to a small 3 car bum. When i was asked to leave they said that i will be able to compete in the upcoming race when ever there was place. But when i went again to register they denied it. If you are not allowing people to be race why would you promise that earlier. I would not suggest this place to anyone, there are better karting places in bay area, this is one of the worst.

I was here for a corporate event. And I have mixed feelings about it as a team building event. Some people like myself, are super into it. I love the rumbling that the go kart gives. The kart just feels alive or something. Others hate it, and just go once and be bored the entire time while everyone else is trying to kill each other on course.
The true reason why they don’t get a 5 star rating is that they’re rather liberal with banning people sometimes. I had some coworkers who were kicked, after they bumped into each other trying to pass. A little reckless, but I think a verbal warning for them would’ve been fine. Verbally warning did happen, but someone came up and said they can’t go back out. Yes they were a little crazy, but no second chances is too harsh.
I consider myself defensive driver, and I wasn’t the fastest nor the slowest on the track. The best part was that I could drift all I wanted and no one would care. I got yelled at another place for it, but here I can do it all I want as long as it was safe. Suddenly having the fastest time was no longer a priority, and pretending I was in initial D was.
The track was very clean, and the vehicles were pretty well maintained. The track itself is kind of narrowish. Its wide enough to drive safely with a lot of people, but not wide enough to pass slow people safely. Toward the end of the day, they stopped signalling people to allow the person behind to pass. I get it, the day has been long, but I’ve been tailgating number 20 for like the past 6 laps because he driving in the middle of the road.
Overall, I feel like it is a great experience, and the staff is mostly nice.

I love the smell of two stroke in the morning.

The place is great but after experiencing electric carts I can’t come back here. With electric the race field is much more even. Also the acceleration is much slower in the gas carts. This place isn’t bad by any means, I just prefer the electric speed and agility.

Used LeMans for our release party. Engineers who were very reluctant at first loved the experience once the races started. LeMans team kept everyone moving despite the large number of engineers. Registration was a bit tricky but it was soon a forgotten glitch. Thanks LeMans for taking great care of a large team and thanks for the group pictures!

The folks who worked here are beyond amazing. Very courteous!!! Thank you for such an awesome time. We had a ball celebrating my brothers birthday.
I would recommend folks to make reservation ahead of time; especially for larger groups. The $ 65 package deal is the best.
30 minutes of straight driving is no joke. A few of us woke up super soar. While your driving, the adrenaline is rushing and you don’t realize how tight you hold on to the steering wheel. Man, my forearms are hella soar. But it’s all good!
We will definately be back for a rematch.

First time here was cool, employees over strict on some things which is okay at some point but they over do it. so I thought I’ll go for a second time and paid $ 20 for a 10 minute race which was really 7 minute race, they took everyone’s 3 minutes away because someone’s go kart was smoking, which wasn’t their fault or anyone else’s, they stop everyone for 3 minutes and said their cutting into our race time because we can’t listen. Basically blaming it on everyone which isn’t okay at all. Besides if a go kart is smoking from the back how can the person see it driving in the front? And they take it out on everyone being so rude about it. People come really far to race not even 10 minutes for $ 20… Waste of my time and money THEY HAVE RUDE ATTITUDE.

Went here with some family for an afternoon. The Karts went much faster than other places I’ve been, and they have cool race stats. I’ll be back!

Its great but expensive. It has nice games area especially the shooting part.

Hands down the best karting experience in the Bay. I’ve been to about five different karting facilities in my life and they’re definitely the best as it relates to customer service and the technicalities of the track itself.
The staff is genuinely passionate about providing a great experience regardless of whether you’re there for fun, to improve as a driver, or whatever else. Also, unlike a lot of places, LeMans isn’t the fanciest, the nicest, or the most technical but they run an incredibly efficient operation that’s a great experience and incredibly cost effective.
I did the Monday all you can drive which was $ 100 for 4 hours. Incredible!

Not too happy with the facility.
Doesnt make sense, how walk ins arent able to race, i understand you can be busy, but noting available must be bullshit.

Go-​karting is very popular among young adults these days, and I can see why. This was the first time I went, and personally, it’s not for me. But! I can see the appeal. Zoom around as fast as you want? Yes please. If only the entire path were straight and nobody else was on the path!
Anyway, LeMans is pretty nice; in the beginning, there’s a 5-​minute video explaining rules and the different flags. The video’s repetitive and the quality’s not the best, but it gets the message across. There are lots of helmets available, many sizes, and lots of go-​karts. The karts I got were pretty good (either that or I don’t actually know the difference between a good kart and a bad kart); they turned when I wanted them to and stopped when I pressed on the brake. Go-​karts are hecka difficult to turn wowie! After I left, driving my normal car was such a relief. My arms were getting sore from the go-​kart! Anyhow, good experience, and the track here is nice. There’s this one part that’s quite straight and another part that’s quite windy, but in general, it was pretty balanced. Good place to go go-​karting!

First two times I visited this place, I was extremely impressed. An indoor-​outdoor combined track? How awesome is that!!! Totally put go kart racer in Burlingame to shame. My most recent visit will be my last until things go back to the way they used to be. According to one of the front desk guys, there were noise complaints from the surrounding tenants, which is stupid since this place has been there forever.
A quick search on youtube shows footage of previous track configurations that even wrap around the backside of the building to make an even more interesting track. I’m bummed I never gave this place a shot way back then, and I’m glad I got to enjoy it before it turned into this smaller, bastardized version of its former self. Can only hope that the restrictions are lifted one day so this place goes back to being the number one karting facility in the bay area.

Karting with friends! Was a lotta fun. A quick word on the dos and donts and ready to go. Karts were good, except they don’t have practice or qualifiers. Would be nice to have them when things get serious
Will definitely go back. Wish the races weren’t so short though. 20 minutes just flew by. An offer on non-​busy times would be good. They expect you to reserve, especially on weekends. So be ready to block a time with your card first.

First timers can expect something like Speed Zone, with one track. Priced at $ 20 for a ten minute race with your friends, remember that you can get tired quite quickly after having to yank a steering wheel that doesn’t have power steering. You can find $ 5 off coupons in brochures at places like Bambu in the nearing area, and for $ 15 I have to say it’s not bad. The race is what you expect, a go kart that zips on a floor that is both slippery enough to drift and slide you into a wall, or grip enough to allow a pass against your rival.
Consider that not knowing when you’ll slide is asking for disaster to happen, and that’s why you’ll be signing waivers prior to even setting foot onto the course. Also note to bring the hand sanitizer, and tons of it. You’ll also note that the course is limited to indoors now, and so you can’t have the fun of racing both inside and outside. That’s a huge bummer, and I hope to see a change in that policy soon. Otherwise, drive safe and good luck!

Great place to hang out with your friends. The price was reasonable, and I was able to get a discount by checking in to Unilocal/​facebook. The track was not bad either.
Their staff members were friendly and their service was quite up to par.
I would definitely recommend this place and I look forward to come back here next time!

Literally just got done racing & I had a blast, all the staff were so nice & the karts were surprisingly comfortable.
5 stars for service, karts & service.
–1 star because it is on the pricier side, I had bought a groupon deal for my boyfriend & I which was $ 24 for only 10 minutes… For the first time I wish they would’ve given us an extra five minutes just so I could get the feel of it.
Overall I would definitely come back, but with more people. The more the merrier!

I was excited about this place because I’ve never been go-​karting in the US let alone in an indoor venue. The wait time wasn’t that bad especially for a group of five with no reservations. I think we came at the right time because there were two guys that came in after us and left because there were no slots open to race. We paid $ 20 each which was only for 10 minutes. If we paid $ 50 each, then we could have done the triple play which was 30 minutes of racing. We waited in the lobby until it was our group’s turn to race.
Some of the helmets didn’t have the button strap but a lot of them did so I chose the one that did. I think since we were there on the weekend, they combined the indoor track with the outdoor track. Once we were ready to race then they signaled us to go to our go-​karts. I didn’t know what to expect so I took the first lap easy then went as fast as I could. Of course, another group racing with us were super aggressive and were bumping into a couple of us which you weren’t supposed to do. I guess the staff missed those incidents. I would recommend paying for the triple play because those 10 minutes flew by pretty fast. I wanted to keep racing but they had everybody exit the course and go into the pit.
The staff were nice and explained things clearly. The parking lot was large enough and we didn’t have any issues finding parking. If I’m in town next time, then I’m going to try to come back here to race. It was pretty fun!
