lightspeed go-karts & laser tag

I took my grandson to this place on Dec 31, 2014. This is not very large racetrack, built inside an old garden center. I paid $25 for unlimited racing and lazertag, thinking my grandson would be easily occupied for an hour or 2. Nothing could be further from the truth. After racing one race he had to sit out several races due to other patrons. They only fielded 6 out of 12 cars available. When he went to go to lazertag, the door was locked and they did not have enough staff to allow him to begin. Apparently you are supposed to fill your dead time stuffing the Chucky cheese type games with additional money. Lastly, after we had been their over an hour, a driver rammed the track railing, being made of plastic, and tore it up. The entire track was down while they repaired the railing. We spent 1 hour and 45 minutes there, with grandson having a total of 15 minutes racing and 10 minutes in lazertag. They state up front that a race is 10 minutes, 5 minutes buckling up and 5 minutes racing. This place is a Wisconsin Dell style ripoff. When I complained, the arrogant porcine owner wished me a happy new year. Avoid this place like the plague.

My son and three of his friends went here to celebrate his birthday. Very clean and reasonably priced. Would recommend to any child 14 or under

We brought my son & his 3 friends (and my 5 year-old younger son) for his 11th birthday party. What a blast! The staff was great to work with. One of the kids was a bit short to ride go-karts solo, but the staff suggested a booster & it worked well. We otherwise would have had a VERY disappointed kid. The electric go-karts were smooth & quiet, and don't have the gasoline odor of traditional karts. Laser tag area was spacious & fun. Game duration was perfect. The staff went out of their way to make sure the kids were having fun. My 5 year-old had gotten about 50 tickets playing games, but the owner let him pick out a 100-ticket prize, which was a nice gesture. The venue was clean & attractive. We'll definitely be back!

It's sort of a tradition that when I get together with my nephew & grand-nephew we have some go-kart racing contests. I used to do this at the Dells or other venues. I was searching for a place in the Kenosha area this past spring (too cold for outdoor karting). I came across this venue and gave it a try.It was a lot of fun, three hours worth - then we left for a quick meal & came back to closed the place. We did both the laser tag and racing... where else can one go to get 5 hours of fun for $25.00?Be sure to park on Lightspeeds lot, not the next door fast food joint or car dealer.

This was our first time at Light Speed and our last. There was a disturbance between 2 young people and the management did not handle the situation well at all, allowing the aggressor to leave and re-enter the building 3 more times showing no regard for the safety of the children and families in the building. A customer ended up being the one to call authorities. Very sad. Our kids need places like this, but they need to be managed much better. Perhaps a security guard would help.
