  • How long are your races?
    Races are scheduled every 10 minutes. Your time on track is about 6-8 minutes from sitting to standing. This includes getting seated, a warm up lap, your racing laps, and the cool down lap. Most drivers prefer to race in 2 or 3 races when they visit.
  • If I buy multiple races will they be back to back?
    If you book a 2 or 3 race package online you will only need to pick the time for your first race, the computer will automatically book you into your second and third races. These races are run with a 20 minute break between your races for you to relax! Drivers find that this is the perfect amount of down time between races!
  • Do you have food and drinks? Can I cater my event?
    We do not have a dedicated kitchen, and do not serve food. We do offer vending machine snacks and Pepsi products. We also have a free filtered cold water station - but remember to bring your own bottle please! Unfortunately we do not have room in our lobby at this time for private catering. You are welcome to bring in food and non-alcoholic beverages. There are a number of restaurants and lounges nearby in the polo park area that we can refer you to as well.
  • How big is the track? What is a good laptime?
    The track is 27,500 square feet, and about 0.2km long. A great driver can run a lap on our current track configuration in about 21 seconds in our 50 kph karts, or 28 seconds in our 40kph karts.
  • Are there different types of races?
    Yes! Regular race and Race packages : these are the races that you would do as a walk-in customer or a booking that books for 1, 2 or 3 race package. These races are all run in qualifier format meaning that the winner of the race is the driver who sets the fastest laptime during the race. This is available as regular and private events. GP Race : The GP race is a private group event. It includes a warm up race, a qualifier race and a 10 minute double length feature race. The warm up and qualifier races are in the regular race format (above) where as the Feature race is in RACE format where drivers are gridded in their qualifying positions and have a rolling start. Results are based on the driver who covers the most laps. Enduro Race: The Enduro race event is a private event for up to 10 drivers. It starts with a regular race (qualifier), followed by the drivers doing a 30 minute feature race where they start in the order that they qualified and the winner is the driver who covers the most laps in 30 minutes. This is NOT for the faint of heart! 30 minutes of intense kart racing is not easy... even for seasoned veterans. There is a reason it is called an endurance race!
  • Is there an age or height requirement?
    Drivers in the simulators (sims) should be age 14 and older an 5' or taller. Although the sims have seats that are adjustable to the pedals, the Simucube Pro force feedback has up to 20 nm of force that smaller or weaker drivers may find difficult

  • What kind of equipment do the sims use?

  • What is the Track of the Month?

Limiting factors can include wide hips or a waist size exceeding 44".
  • Can I race pregnant, or with a broken arm or leg?
    No! You absolutely should not be racing when you are pregnant or if you have any other known health conditions such as (but not limited to): broken bones, chemical sensitivities, back, knee or neck problems etc. We recommend consulting with your doctor if you have any concerns about participation.
  • What is the maximum or minimum number for reservations?
    There is no minimum number of guests to make a reservation! Individuals can make a booking for just one person if they would like! You will just be added into another race with other drivers. The maximum number of guests is 40 persons. This ensures that no one needs to wait an extensive amount of time waiting between their races. With parties of 11 or more we do recommend making a private race booking which will ensure that you will only race with drivers in your party.
  • Do I need a driver's license to race?
    If a driver does not have a driver's license they can still race at 40kph without a license or deposit. If a driver is between age 16-18 they DO require a driver's license for the 50 kph karts, but do NOT need a license for 40 kph karts. If a driver is age 18+ WITH GOVERNMENT ISSUED PHOTO ID they do not require a driver's license but if they racing at 50 kph a $100 damage deposit is required.
  • Is a membership required?
    Yes, but don't worry it's only $5.00 per person for an annual membership!
  • Why do I need a membership - what are the benefits?
    Annual membership includes a new reusable cloth balaclava for under our helmets (required), which is yours to keep! Be sure to bring it back, to avoid the need to purchase a new one. Speedworld is required to be a "members only" style of facility. This allows us to operate kart speeds that exceed those permitted by a track inspected by the Province of Manitoba as an amusement only facility. We keep our membership rate reasonable, and base our prices lower than most other tracks with high speed karts.
  • Do I need a reservation to race at Speedworld?
    No, you do not need a reservation to race at Speedworld. However, we do accept bookings, and it can be very difficult to get onto the track during our busy times. We recommend making a reservation, especially for larger parties or if you want to ensure priority access to the track. It's similar to a movie theatre, where sometimes there are no seats left upon your arrival, while at other times there is ample space. Booking ahead can help ensure you have a spot when you arrive.
  • What is your Refund policy?
    All bookings are NON REFUNDABLE. You can change your reservation date and/or time with a minimum 24 hours notice. This can be done quickly using the link included in your booking confirmation email or by calling us at 204-774-5278. It can be difficult to reach us by telephone, and do not accept voicemail - using the link in your email is the best method to make changes.
  • Can I add drivers to my reservation?
    To add drivers to your reservation, just make another reservation at the same arrival time! For example if you have a 1:00pm booking for 4 drivers, and have 2 more guests that want to join you visit the booking page and book 2 drivers to race at 1:00pm. They will be added to your race!
  • Do you have food and drinks? Can I cater my event? (copy)
    We do not have a dedicated kitchen, and do not serve food. We do offer vending machine snacks and Pepsi products. We also have a free filtered cold water station - but remember to bring your own bottle please! Unfortunately we do not have room in our lobby at this time for private catering.

  • Do I need to pay in advance to make a reservation?
    Yes, we require that reservations are paid in advance and are non-refundable. Bookings can be made online (visa or mastercard) or by coming in store (interac, cash, visa or mastercard). This policy ensures that we can manage the limited number of spaces available on our track each day. As a small business, we rely on this system to prevent financial losses due to last-minute cancellations or changes in group size. By securing your reservation, you're guaranteeing an exhilarating experience for you and your group, and helping us maintain the high-quality service we pride ourselves on. So gear up and get ready for some high-speed fun, knowing your spot is reserved just for you!
  • Can we all pay separately when we arrive?
    Guests can pay separately as walk-in customers OR if you want to make a reservation, instruct all of your friends to book on the same date and at the same time! If you book your first race at the same time you will all race together for your race(s). If you purchase a 2 or 3 race package, the booking system will automatically put you into your second and/or third race - no need to schedule those when they are purchased the computer will do that for you!
  • Is racing at Speedworld safe?
    At Speedworld, safety is our top priority, and we've put measures in place to make racing as safe as possible. This includes providing clear rules, safety briefings, and closely monitoring races. Drivers must wear a DOT approved helmet to race, and wear hair above their shoulders and have closed toe shoes on. However, just like driving on the street, the actions of others can impact your experience. Drivers who break the rules or act dangerously may create risks, but we do our best to address these situations immediately by removing them from the race or shutting them down if necessary. To ensure your safety and enjoyment, we encourage all drivers to follow the rules, stay alert, and drive responsibly.
  • Do you ban drivers from the track?
    We sure do! If you are acting dangerously and do not heed our warnings, we may decide that you are no longer permitted to participate in your races either on that day, or for a period in the future. Drivers who are abusive or act aggressively towards the staff or other customers will also be banned from returning.
