Go-Kart Racing on Long Island
Long Island has a small but varied group of active go-kart destinations, ranging from high-performance indoor electric racing in Farmingdale to outdoor gas-powered tracks in Suffolk County and mini electric karting designed specifically for younger children. This guide focuses only on places where visitors can currently drive or ride go-karts, with an interactive map showing the verified locations.
Indoor Go-Kart Racing on Long Island
RPM Raceway Long Island in Farmingdale is the Island’s major high-performance indoor karting destination. The facility reopened with a redesigned multi-level racing complex in 2025 and holds a Guinness World Records title for the world’s longest indoor multi-level go-kart track. Its all-electric karting program includes junior and adult racing along with Kart Klash, an interactive game-style racing format.
For younger children, Xplore Commack offers indoor mini electric GLOW karts under black lights. The attraction is designed primarily for children roughly ages 4 to 12, making it very different from RPM’s faster racing experience. Open-play availability can be affected by birthday parties, so families should check ahead if karting is the main reason for visiting.
Outdoor Go-Kart Tracks
Tiki Action Park in Centereach operates one of Long Island’s established outdoor gas-powered go-kart tracks. Single-seat and two-seat kart options make it useful for families, although drivers and passengers must meet the park’s height and age requirements. The same property also includes miniature golf and an arcade.
Farther east, Scott’s Pointe in Calverton has developed one of Long Island’s largest outdoor karting experiences. Its custom course is just under a mile long with 22 turns, and the park says its rental karts can exceed 20 MPH. The track is part of a larger adventure complex with an aquapark, laser tag, climbing, mini golf and other attractions.
Which Go-Kart Track Is Best?
The best choice depends heavily on the racers. RPM Raceway is the strongest option for teens, adults and anyone seeking a more serious indoor racing experience. Tiki Action Park and Scott’s Pointe are better suited to a broader outdoor family outing, while Xplore Commack is specifically designed for younger children who may not yet meet the height or age requirements at the larger tracks.
Before You Go
Go-kart facilities commonly enforce minimum ages, heights and footwear rules, and some distinguish between junior drivers, adult drivers and passengers. Outdoor tracks may close because of rain or other weather conditions, while indoor facilities may have limited open-play times because of parties or private events. Check the current requirements and schedule directly with the facility before traveling.

Methodology
LongIslandGuide.com compiled this map by reviewing current official go-kart facility websites, business listings, attraction pages, and recent operating information to identify active Long Island locations where the public can currently drive or ride go-karts. Facilities were included only when public karting activity could be reasonably verified. Permanently closed tracks, outdated listings, bumper-car attractions, and private or member-only racing facilities were excluded.
Each location was also reviewed for practical visitor details such as indoor or outdoor operation, electric or gas-powered karts, age and height requirements, two-seat kart availability, family attractions, and seasonal or weather-related limitations. Map coordinates were checked separately and embedded directly into the map rather than generated through live geocoding. Because hours, prices, rider requirements, track availability, and weather closures can change, visitors should confirm current details directly with the facility before traveling.
Although Long Island no longer has some of the go-kart centers residents may remember from years past, the remaining tracks cover several very different experiences. From record-setting indoor racing in Farmingdale to outdoor family tracks in Centereach and Calverton and mini GLOW karting in Commack, the interactive map above can help narrow the choices before you head out.
