I had an awesome time at HQ Racing! From the moment we walked in, the staff was super friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about racing. They explained everything really well and made sure everyone felt comfortable before getting on the track. The karts were fast, well-maintained, and the track itself was exciting with great turns that made every lap fun and competitive. The facility was clean, organized, and had a great atmosphere. Whether you’re racing with friends, family, or for a party, it’s an incredible experience. What really stood out was how professional and safety-focused the team was while still making sure everyone had a blast. You can tell they care about giving people a great time. If you’re anywhere near Peekskill and looking for something fun and different to do, I highly recommend HQ Racing. I can’t wait to go back and race again! 🏁🏎️

We have raced all over and this facility is on another level! Super wide for passing, top of the line karts, and the track is long and technical. You must go and try this place out.

A new facility opened up in Peekskill, NY called HQ Racing. It is fantastic and looks like it's likely to become a major destination for us rental racing nerds! The track is a long track, with a combined indoor/outdoor layout. My recent visit was in January so we were inside only. Even with this shortened track, the prospeed laps are approx 53s. That's quite long for indoors. The layout is very flowing and very technical. It features a number of complexes that punish overdriving entry. It's not an easy track, but it is fun and quite rewarding when it starts to flow. The surface is excellent and the grip level is very high. Ideally, this is a quiet tire kind of place. Excessive tire noise means you are overdriving! I can't wait to see what transpires league/enduro-wise, here. I chatted with the GM and manager and they seem to get it. It doesn't have that corporate feel. Come try it out. The track is awesome and the new Sodis are the nicest karts you can drive, e-rental wise, imo, and these are the latest model! Adjustable everything! Good tires! They turn on a dime! Highly recommended!

HQ Racing is truly a 10/10 experience. It’s an incredible place to spend time, whether you’re going solo or bringing friends along to unwind and enjoy the track after a busy week. The facility itself is outstanding, and the track is always in excellent condition. What really sets HQ Racing apart, though, is the team. The staff is consistently friendly, welcoming, and professional every single visit. Their positive attitude and customer service make the entire experience even better. I highly recommend HQ Racing to anyone looking for an exciting and well-run racing experience.

Brand new indoor/partial outdoor rental go-kart track in Peekskill. Was lucky enough to go to Opening day. The start up process is easy, you can create an account at location or do it prior online via the website or mobile app. After that go to the front desk and pay for your races. If you sign up for the membership there's a slight discount on each race you buy. Membership is annually. Everything is included from full face helmet to neck brace, there's adult karts, double karts (for parents with kids), and gas karts. Your stats are tracked to your account and if you have the mobile app they upload there as well. The indoor course is great with several straight ways and lots of turns. Staff was friendly as well! Everyone knew how to drive which was a lucky bonus. Definitely come check it out, it is one of the better karting experiences I've had. Feedback: 1) Have racers be assigned to kart numbers prior, so we can sit at our kart number and be ready to go, rather than sit down and then be asked our driver names to assign it to the kart - just to speed up the process. Would also be cool if users with faster lap times could auto start pole positions to avoid having to pass at the start 2) More membership tiers, I would really love an unlimited racing membership even if it has a daily limit of x amount of races before I had to pay or wait a day. One downside in my opinion of paying per race is on the chance you get an unfun race (a lot of yellow flags) it sours the experience and makes you feel like you wasted your money. This didn't happen here but it does happen at rental karts on crowded days. An unlimited membership alleviates the frustration because you can just go, ah. Next race will be better or maybe tomorrow. Without feeling like you're spending hard earned money to not have the proper experience. Outside of that, I am definitely coming back. Ask the front desk about qualifying for a pro account as well if you're competitive which let's you sign up for pro races in the future (faster go karts)! They also will have league races for those interested in competing. Overall great place and glad to have one so local. Thanks again HQ team!
