Is karting safe?

Yes, karting is very safe and we place a lot of emphasis on teaching proper safety techniques and accident avoidance procedures. Moran Raceway also provides the best prepared racing karts in the country. Accidents are extremely rare and Moran Raceway is one of only a few tracks in the entire country built to meet CIK/FIA specs and safety guidelines. This means that all of our safety run-off areas, curbs, fencing, and barriers are designed for maximum safety. Our staff is extremely qualified in instruction and kart preparation. All kid karts are restricted in horsepower and extra attention is spent making sure that all "Jr." students are well supervised and trained. Each participant is covered with insurance after signing a waiver. Moran Raceway is proud to have never had any injury in any of our driving programs.top

Is there a minimum amount of kart rental time and can I share a kart?

There is a 1 hour minimum for all kart rentals. There is a 4 hour maximum. Each participant will receive thier own kart unless a group exceeds 10 participants. Two people cannot share 1 kart.top

What days are kart rentals conducted?

We offer kart rentals 3 days a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays year round. Most of our kart rentals are run from 9am to 1pm, however many times we offer afternoon kart rentals when 9-1am is already booked with racing schools or corp/group events. We also conduct our racing schools, corporate events, and group parties on these same days and times. Availability for each driving program is strictly first come, first serve. For larger parties, our rentals can be arranged on any day of the week and all day long. We will also offer rentals on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at any time, however there is a 2 hour minimum for each participant.

Are there age or size requirements?

We offer classes for students starting at age 5 and all other ages, genders, and
backgrounds are welcomed. Persons over 275 lbs or 6'6" in height may not fit in a kart.top

Do you rent to minors?

No, kart rental is for ages 18 and up. However, minors can rent after graduating from our "Techniques of Karting" racing school or if the minor has previous racing experience. Moran Raceway offers Cadet karts (generally used for 8-12 years old) and kid karts (generally used for 5-7 years old) which have reduced horsepower and smaller chassis which help kids to feel comfortable and have a fun time. top

What will I be driving?

Moran Raceway provides all students with Italian manufactured Top Kart racing chassis equipped with 2 stroke powered, 100cc HPV motors. These air cooled motors put out about 20 horsepower and don't require any shifting. These karts are a world championship winning brand which all come with Tillet or Top-Kart padded seats. Our karts are immaculately maintained and are set up to fit drivers of all sizes. Click here for performance and chassis specs.top

What is the format for a rental?

1. Sign in and payment
2. 10-15 minute safety and operations briefing
3. Open lapping begins on an hourly basis.top

Is there a maximum amount of laps that can be completed?

No, participants can drive as much as they want within their purchased time window.top

What should I bring?

We provide everything in terms of karts, safety gear & apparel, and staff. All you need to bring is a pair of tennis shoes. No open toe shoes or sandals of any type are permitted. Keep in mind that winters are a bit colder in our region so bring a sweatshirt or jacket. Sun block is a good idea for summer time. Moran Raceway is equipped with cold drink vending machines. top

What about driving gear?

We provide a full "arrive and drive" service at Moran Raceway. This means that we have everything you need. We have a full line of Burris race suits, Ribtect rib vests, helmets, gloves, neck collars & complimentary balaclava's that are all included in the school for your use. Jeans are permitted for leg wear.top

Can I bring my own helmet?

Yes, that is fine. Just make sure that your helmet is a closed face, snell rated helmet.top

Can I bring family and friends?

Yes, we welcome your family and friends and they will not be charged to attend.top

Payment methods?

Moran Raceway accepts cash, checks, Visa, Mastercard & AMEX. Please make all checks payable to Moran Raceway. Moran Raceway will require a 50% deposit to book any driving program. The rest of payment will be collected on the scheduled driving progam day. Deposits are non-refundable, however the full deposit can be credited toward another date when rescheduling. Cancellations made within 1 week prior to scheduled program date may result in loss of 100% of fees.top

Do you offer gift certificates?

Yes, we sell gift certificates that can be used toward any purchase at our track including racing schools. We sell gift certificates at our track and we will also mail gift certificates out. Please call (951) 522-9302 for gift certificate or purchase one online here.top

Do you offer group discounts?

Yes, for parties over 10 participants each additional person will receive a large discount. Keep in mind that with kart rental, the longer each person rents, the cheaper it gets. A 2 hour rental is a much better deal than a 1 hour rental.top

How far in advance should I book a kart rental?

In general, the sooner the better. Availability fluctuates for many different reasons, however 1-2 weeks notice should be adequate. Don't be afraid to call even up to the day before a scheduled program because there may be room available. Tuesdays and Thursdays typically have much more room than Saturdays.top

Who is responsible for crash damage?

You are, please keep that in mind. Crash damage is rare when participants drive responsibly and safely while respecting their fellow drivers. Off-roading of karts is the #1 cause of crash damage. All particpants will be briefed and cautioned on proper driving methods and corner locations and speeds prior to driving.top
