But where does one find such place in Chennai. With very less options available the most preferred go karting location used to be the indoor karting centre of AVM Studios. Now Kart Attack is perhaps the most popular in the city. Situated on the ECR the track is 300m long and the plane is concrete. MRF Danny's Karting longer tracks, faster carts .Its located on old Mahabalipuram road few kilometers from Tidel park.

"Many a times my kart has stopped on track. Initially I got very panic about the stall, and then the attendants promptly come to restart the engine. There are employees posted at regular breaks" explains Rohin. So now you do not have to wait for the midnight, dodge the cops to enjoy swift driving. Just spend some extra cash and indulge in your racing passion.
