Description
High Voltage Indoor Karting has been revving up engines and adrenaline since 2015, earning its place as one of the most exciting indoor karting destinations in Northeast Ohio. It’s not just about the speed—though, let’s be honest, that’s a huge part of the fun—it’s about the whole experience. The place feels like a playground for grown-ups who never quite outgrew their love for racing. And for travelers passing through Medina, it’s one of those stops that turns an ordinary weekend into a story worth telling.
The track itself is slick, fast, and surprisingly technical. You’ll find yourself gripping the wheel tighter than expected as you dive into corners and push the limits on straightaways. The electric karts pack a punch—instant torque, smooth acceleration, and none of that loud gas smell that used to hang over old-school tracks. It’s clean, modern, and full of energy. The staff? They’re the kind of people who genuinely love what they do, cheering you on and offering tips to shave seconds off your lap time.
What makes High Voltage stand out, though, is how it’s evolved beyond just karting. It’s part of a larger entertainment hub that includes Foundry Social and MAD Brewing Company. So after you’ve raced your heart out, you can grab a locally brewed beer, play a round of arcade games, or just hang out with friends over some good food. It’s the kind of place where a quick stop can easily turn into a full-day adventure. And while most of the crowd is here for thrills, the atmosphere stays friendly and welcoming—families, coworkers, and travelers all mix easily.
Sure, not every race ends perfectly. Sometimes the track gets crowded, or your kart might not handle exactly how you want it to. But that’s part of the charm. Every lap feels a little different, and that unpredictability keeps people coming back. It’s the kind of spot that makes you feel like a kid again, chasing that perfect lap time and laughing when you spin out in a corner. If you’ve ever dreamed of being a racer—even for just ten minutes—this place gets you as close as it gets.

Best Time to Visit
If you’re planning a visit, weekdays are a hidden gem. The crowds are lighter, meaning more track time and less waiting around between heats. Weekends, on the other hand, bring the buzz—families, groups of friends, and even corporate teams fill the place with energy. It’s fun, but expect a little more noise and competition. Personally, I love going in the late afternoon when the lights start to dim and the track glows under the neon—there’s something cinematic about it.
Winter might actually be the best season to drop by. When it’s freezing outside and you’re tired of being cooped up, this indoor track feels like a warm escape. Summer visits are great too, especially since you can wander over to Foundry Social afterward for a drink or two. Honestly, there’s no bad time to go—it just depends on your vibe. Want a quiet, focused session? Go midweek. Want the full social experience? Saturday night is your jam.
How to Get There
High Voltage Indoor Karting is conveniently located in Medina, Ohio, making it an easy detour for travelers driving through the region. If you’re coming from Cleveland or Akron, it’s roughly a 30- to 40-minute drive—close enough for a spontaneous adventure. The route is straightforward, and parking is plentiful once you arrive.
For those relying on public transportation, options are limited, so driving or ridesharing is your best bet. I’ve taken an Uber there before, and it worked out fine—just remember to schedule your ride back in advance, especially on busy nights. The venue’s location near other entertainment spots makes it easy to plan a full evening without hopping between distant places.
Tips for Visiting
First things first—book ahead if you can. Especially on weekends, races fill up fast, and you don’t want to spend half your visit waiting for your turn. When you arrive, wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes. Trust me, flip-flops and racing pedals don’t mix well. If you’ve got long hair, tie it back; safety rules are strict, and for good reason.
Don’t be shy about asking the staff for tips. They’re surprisingly generous with advice, and a few small tweaks to your driving line can make a big difference. And if it’s your first time, don’t stress about being slow. Everyone starts somewhere. The real fun is in improving with each lap. I remember my first race—I was all over the place, spinning out in every corner. By the second session, I was hooked. It’s addictive in the best way.
After racing, take a breather before heading to the bar or restaurant area. Your adrenaline will still be high, and it’s nice to let that buzz settle while you watch others tear up the track. If you’re visiting with a group, make a friendly wager—loser buys the first round. It adds a little extra spice to the competition. And if you’re celebrating a birthday or special occasion, mention it when booking. They’re great at making those moments memorable.
For travelers, it’s worth setting aside at least two hours for the full experience. Between check-in, safety briefings, and a few races, time flies. Bring your phone or camera—there are plenty of photo-worthy spots, especially near the karts and the track’s lighting setup. Just remember to stay safe and follow the rules; the staff runs a tight but friendly operation.
All in all, High Voltage Indoor Karting isn’t just a stop—it’s an experience. Whether you’re chasing speed, sharing laughs with friends, or just looking for something different to do on your travels, it delivers. It’s fast, fun, and just a little bit addictive. And honestly, isn’t that what makes a place worth visiting?
