Stock Car Racing Experience

Experiencia fantástica: It's Crazy! I'm recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Great day. Well organized!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great day. Staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to help with anything needed, answered all questions (even the foolish ones). Demonstrated high level of patience, safety, and coordination. Fully intend to do it again and again…

Experiencia negativa: My friends and I signed up for the 3 hour Go-Kart race and that is what this review will be about. There was rain in the forecast but nothing too severe. The website says they have the race rain or shine, so we assumed it would happen. One small issue we ran into right of way was that they only accpeted cash for the gloves you needed to race. We did not bring our own and the website says they have some on site to purchase. They made no mention of it being cash only. We did not have cash so i had to run out of the raceway to go find cash or gloves. Pro tip if this happens to you, there is a Dollar General right outside the raceway that has gloves for $5 each (it costs $20 at the raveway). We got through the first hour of the day getting our gear and going through the overview. Right before practice started the rain came. They let everyone go out for practice but about 5 minutes later they called everyone back in and stopped it. The rain wasn't too bad but everyone was spinning out all over the course. Additionally, our kart cut out numerous times during that time and our driver was unable to complete more than two laps. The staff there said that was probably because of the rain. After a few more minutes they told us they had to cancel the entire day due to the rain. Their policy does state they do not supply refunds but rather just give a rain check that is good for one year. One of our teammates was from out of state though and would not be coming back anytime in the next year. We inquired about getting a full refund due to this. One of the workers that we talked to spoke with the owner and we were told to call the office the next Monday. We were given the impression we would be able to get a refund. We called the office on Monday are were not given a refund. They said we were told to just call the office, but not that we would get a refund. This made no sense to us and was frustrating. Why would they tell us to call if the policy would not change? Seems like a waste of everyone's time. The staff on the day at Pocono were all great and were professional. No issues with any of them or the raceway. Unfortunately that did not make up for the frustrations we had. TLDR: They actually do not race in the rain and will not work with you on refunds. Make sure you and your team are able to come back within the following year in case it gets cancelled due to weather, which is very possible. Otherwise you are not getting your money back.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the second time I drove at Pocono. It's a great experience. One you'll never forget and you will want to keep coming back!
