Relaxation means a whole lot of things to different people. Some prefer a day of lounging on the couch or in bed binge watching a favorite show. Others, on the other hand, can find no better way to relax than setting off on an adrenaline pumping adventure that gets the heart racing and offers nearly non-stop thrills all day long. If that’s your kind of relaxation, plan a day at Extreme Grand Prix in Missouri, which features a go-kart track and so much more.
Carve out a day just to have fun – go karting, finding your way out of an escape room, and playing arcade games – at Extreme Grand Prix Family Fun Center in Raytown.
Extreme Grand Prix offers “arrive and drive” races, so you can just drop in whenever you feel like it. You might also want to consider joining a private league.
Buckle up in your electric go kart for your race around the quarter-mile track. If you like adrenaline, you’re in for a good bit of it. The go karts can reach speeds of up to 45 miles per hour.
Once you’ve had your fill of go karting, how about an adrenaline rush of a different kind? Extreme Grand Prix also hosts escape rooms, certain to get your blood flowing as you…
Race the clock and try to escape before your 60 minutes are up. Bring a group of no more than eight along, or join another group in one of the two escape rooms – Crazy Jimmy’s Auto Shop or Redrum Motel #13.
Did you beat the clock? By now you’re probably pretty parched and hungry. Fortunately, Extreme Grand Prix makes it easy to fill up on pizza, nachos, fries, and other snacks.
Stop by the official website of Extreme Grand Prix Family Fun Center for more information, including hours, days, and a full list of activities. Or, go here for Facebook.
