We’re here with exciting news from Circuit of The Americas – now kids 12 and under have a race track built just for them!  COTA’s initiative to expand offerings to families includes the new Kiddie Karting Track located next to their 15-turn adult course.  Kids will get a personalized Kiddie Karting Driver’s License to bring with them each time they return, and the best part?  COTA’s attentive Karting Staff can control the speed of each fully-electric kart individually so parents can confidently relax and watch their kids have the time of their life.
