Some places you can tell are very transactional you give us money we give you bare minimum service. Not This Place!!! Went for date night on Friday and the boys helping us were Fantastic! Above and beyond to teach is the course and got some direct coaching. Great experience, will come again.

Excellent VR opportunity for people of all ages. My son wasn't old enough to go cart...we tried this place and wow. Great people watched and helped my kids in their first time experience.

Just stopped here to test out some direct drive wheels as I am thinking of setting up a sim racing rig. They have lots of selection from entry level to pro sim racing gear.
