It’s like reenacting the most intricate karting video game, but in real life and you’re the protagonist. Feel the wind whistle through your wrists as you maneuver around the course for fourteen spectacular laps at speeds up to 45 miles per hour with your feet inches from the track. Children enjoy ten laps. Race your companions or just face the clock on a one-on-one battle with yourself.
Seven different colored flags lead the way and indicate course conditions, and you’ll feel like a professional racer when you see that checkered flag flailing in the air and you slam your foot on the accelerator. The outdoor track is absolutely extraordinary. It is on this specific type of course that Formula 1 champions have honed their driving skills before pushing their names toward fame and fortune.
All of the karts at the Cabo Karting Center are made in the U.S. by Stratos Karts, whose Startos XS is indisputably the best in its class. These top of the line karts allow drivers to safely and confidently push the limits of their individual race skills, and even a little bit beyond if they desire to do so, since safety is pervasive.
It is completely in your own hands to determine your speed, since the exclusive state-of-the-art Speedsheet race tracking system keeps precise record of every specific detail of your race experience, statistics, and ranking. Points determine who gets the privilege to participate in contests. You can check online to review your progress and compare yourself to the other racers. The week’s highest rated and fastest participants meet on Tuesdays to determine who is the best. Tournaments are coming soon, so bring it on!
At less than $29 U.S. Cabo Karting is an amazing activity that offers more enjoyment for your money than nearly anything else in Los Cabos. Group packages are available and a private indoor air-conditioned facility is available for your private event.
The best part is that virtually anybody can participate in this activity. No previous training or special licenses are required. Racers must be a minimum of four feet tall, and all participants need to sign a release form. A parent or legal guardian must sign the consent for those under 18 years of age. Drivers must arrive and be prepared to go 15 minutes prior to their scheduled race time. Prior to every race, each and every driver must attend the race and rules briefing.
Optimal attire for this activity is sneakers (by no means sandals) and tight fitting clothes. Long hair should be placed in a ponytail, and skirts and dresses should be avoided for obvious reasons. Conveniently situated just a few miles outside of downtown Cabo San Lucas before Costco, Cabo Karting is an amazing activity that takes only an hour or less, and the memory of the experience is timeless. Cabo Karting Center is open daily from 10 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.
