SCOTTSDALE, AZ — Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines!

Buckle up for the only full-time indoor and outdoor go-kart track in the U.S. Octane Raceway in Scottsdale offers speeds of up to 45 miles per hour.

The 1/3 mile track is half indoor, and half outdoor and races start every 10 minutes. It’s the first to 14 laps for adults and the first to 10 laps for juniors. Ages 16 and up go up to 45 mph on the track and juniors at 4’6” reach speeds of 20 mph.

“Our track is half indoor and outdoor. Everything is cool and misted. Carts go inside and outside, it's a lot of fun” said JP Mullan, COO of Octane Entertainment. “We have some great new attractions. We still have about 20-25 arcade games, an all-new free-roam VR experience, we can have eight people playing at a time. And then axe throwing with digital projection screens. There's six lanes so up to 36 people can throw axes at the same time.”
