2. Andretti Indoor Karting and Games – Orlando

Located on Universal Boulevard and sharing a parking lot with TopGolf Orlando, Andretti Indoor Karting and Games offers many of the same experiences I-Drive NASCAR Indoor Kart Racing offers, with a few differences and additions. For starters, Andretti offers three separate indoor tracks for drivers of all ages and experiences to race on. Track 1 is a road-course style single level track for beginners, while track 2 is a slightly faster, elevated and scenic track for those looking for a bit of a challenge above track 1. Track 3 is Andretti’s most intense go-kart track, with multiple elevation changes, banked curves, and long straightaways for those looking to put the pedal to the medal.
