4.0 (15 reviews) Tuesday: 12:00 PM - 8:30 PM Spent Ranking #3 in Des Plaines Game & Entertainment Centers

Cheap fun for kids and adults.

Was worried since review said it was expensive. Not at all!!! $10 for 30mins of racing with all equiptment . My kids had so much fun! Ages 8 and 5. Retro fun while supporting a family owned business. Win win in my book. My kids are literally begging to go back and ask daily. Only advice is cash only.

    Good, old fashioned fun - for kids and adults!
    My five-year old son had a blast, so did my husband! $10 (cash only!) for 30 minutes of racing and lots of laughs. If you are in the area, it is worth a stop... you won't be disappointed. There is an ice-cream parlor in back, but we didn't order anything.

    Not Working Tracks Limited the Fun
    My kids and father are car enthusiasts, so we were excited to check this place out. Unfortunately, the front track (the advanced track) was not working correctly: we wasted a fair amount of our 30 minutes time slot trying to get cars to run, but the employee couldn't get more than one lane to work. On the back track (the beginner track), the edge bumper was falling down, blocking the top lane, and another lane was not working. My husband's lane stopped working midway through and had to move to a new lane. Overall, a fair amount of our time was wasted on things not working properly; nonetheless, my kids enjoyed it. If things were properly working, I think it could be a neat experience. The facility was clean.
