Safety Waiver & Rules

Safety Waivers are required for our Mini-Golf, Laser Tag, Climbing Wall, and Go-Kart Racing. New customers will sign the waivers when they check-in. For large groups and parties it's recommended you print off and sign the safety waivers from the links below ahead of time. This will help speed up the check-in process when you're here.

.:: SAFETY VIDEO ::.

IMPORTANT: By signing the safety waiver you are agreeing that you have read, understood, and will follow our track rules.

All new customers are required to watch a short safety video explaining our track rules and procedures.

If you receive a warning while racing, please remember that this is being done to ensure the safety of everyone who is on the track racing.


.:: FLAGS AND LIGHTS ::.
Green Flag/Light: For regular "Arrive & Drive" races the green light is displayed instead of the green flag. Once a track marshal motions a driver out of the pits they can start racing. The green flag is used for Leagues, Private Events, Group Events, and Corporate Events.

Blue Flag (With Yellow Stripe): If a driver is shown the blue flag then they must safely pull to the outside of the track to let a faster kart go by. Be aware there may be more than one kart passing. If a driver is unable to pass a kart, this is no excuse for intentional contact.

Yellow Flag/Light: Drivers must slow down due to unsafe track conditions. Raise your hand to signal you are aware of the caution period. There is absolutely no racing or passing under a yellow condition. A green light will be displayed to signal the end of the caution period.

Red Flag/Light: If the red light or red flag is displayed, a driver must slow down and come to a complete stop as soon as possible. The karts may shut off automatically for safety reasons. Stay seated until further instructed. Extra time will be added to a race for "Red Light" situations.

Black Flag: If a driver receives the black flag, they should immediately head to the pit area. This could be for dangerous driving, undone seat-belt, no neck collar, a kart malfunction, or for touching the kart’s motor. Once in the pits, a track marshal will decide whether to permit that driver back on the track.

White Flag: The white flag signals the final lap of the race. This flag is not normally used for regular "Arrive & Drive" races. The white flag is used for Leagues, Private Events, Group Events, and Corporate Events.

Checkered Flag: For regular "Arrive & Drive" races the checkered flag signals that time has run out and the race is over. Once receiving the checkered flag, drivers should slow down and head to the pits. There is NO racing after the checkered flag even if you do not see a yellow light.

.:: TRACK RULES ::.

IMPORTANT: When racing, realize these karts ARE NOT bumper cars at an amusement park. If you receive a warning while racing, remember that this is being done to ensure the safety of all involved which, at the end of day, is more important to us than anything else. Please do not respond aggressively or abusively to our track staff as this will only lead to your exclusion from our facility.

Speed Limiters: All of our karts can be wirelessly controlled. Sometimes, under yellow light conditions, your kart may be slowed for safety reasons. If you feel your kart sputtering, that is because it has been placed on the limiter.
Signs
Our track marshals have 6 signs they use to communicate with racers on the track. A flag may be used in addition to the sign.
- “No Bumping”
- “Move Over”
- “Warning”
- “Pit Now”
- “Visor Down”
- “Don’t Ride Brake”

Other Signals
Think: If a track marshal taps their head this means “Think”. Re-think and be smart about how you are driving.
Visor Down: A track marshal will simulate closing an imaginary helmet visor with their hand while pointing at you.
Yellow and Green Flags Crossed Together: This signals the halfway point of the race. Not used for arrive & drive. Normally used for Leagues, Private Events, Group Events, and Corporate Events.
Rolled-Up Black Flag Pointed At You: Last warning, you will receive the black flag for any more violations.

01. Always obey the track marshals. Their job is to insure every customer has a fun yet safe race. Any customer who ignores a warning by a marshal will either be removed from the race or talked to after the race. Do not argue or verbally harass any track marshal; it will not be tolerated. The decision of our track marshals is final. No refunds will be given.

02. Anyone driving aggressively, beyond their own ability, without regard for our rules or the safety of all involved will be warned. A repeated warning will result in a black flag and your immediate termination from the race. No refunds will be given.

IMPORTANT TIP: If you are sliding sideways and hitting the barriers you obviously are not driving safely. Learning to drive better comes from driving slower and getting a better feel for the kart. Add more speed once you are not sliding through every turn.

03. Our karts ARE NOT bumper cars. Any intentional bumping or blocking is considered reckless driving. If you are seen hitting another kart, a “No Bumping” sign will be shown. Continual bumping will result in a “Warning Sign”. Your kart may be placed on a speed limiter to insure you see the warnings by the track marshals. Failure to stop bumping will result in your removal from the race.

04. If you receive a “No Bumping” or “Warning” sign, acknowledge that you have received the warning so the track marshals know you are paying attention and you understand what you did wrong.

05. If you spin the kart out on track, wait for a track marshal to assist you. Under no circumstances should you attempt to get out of the kart or push yourself away from the barriers with either your hands or feet. NEVER drive backwards on the track to try to turn around. Wait for a marshal.

06. Never slow down on track to wait for a friend as this can create a dangerous situation, which you will be black-flagged for.

07. Once you receive the checkered flag stop racing and slow down. Proceed to the pits. Once you come to a stop in the pits stay seated in your kart until you are instructed to get out by a track marshal. We don’t want you to get half way out of your kart and then get hit from behind.

08. The Pit Indoor Kart Racing provides and requires a full-face helmet, neck collar, and closed toe shoes. Customers may bring their own helmets ONLY if they meet the following requirements. Helmet is: Full-Face with impact resistant visor, DOT approved, and in good condition (not damaged). We don’t allow motocross helmets (even with goggles), pit crew helmets, and open-face helmets. Please understand this is for your safety and insurance reasons.

09. The Pit Indoor Kart Racing has a strict “zero tolerance policy” regarding alcohol and/or drug abuse. Any person who fails or refuses to take a breathalyzer test, or appears to be under the influence, will not be permitted to race. No refunds will be given. Please let a cashier or track marshal know if you are on any prescription medicines that may affect your driving.

10. Kart racing poses special risks to people with neck or back problems, heart conditions, anyone who is pregnant, anyone who should not be in a stressful or physically demanding environment. If you have any doubt, please check with your doctor before racing.

11. New customers are required to watch a short safety video.

12. All loose clothing must be tucked in. There is a good chance anything in your pockets will fall out while racing. There are lockers available to store your personal belongings in. The Pit Indoor Kart Racing is not responsible for lost or damaged items. If you think you lost something on the track, notify a track marshal.

13. Customers with hair longer than shoulder length or wearing loose clothing that could obstruct their vision or become entangled in any moving part will not be permitted to drive. Hair that is longer than shoulder length must be tucked into the back of your shirt.

14. There is absolutely no smoking or consumption of alcohol anywhere inside The Pit Indoor Kart Racing. We have the right to refuse service to anyone who is suspected of being under the influence of alcohol, drugs, etc...
