Go Karts in The Smokies

Where to Ride Go Karts in The Smokies

In the year of our Lord, 1986 AD, a young man and naval aviator by the name of Peter Mitchell first uttered what would shortly after become the most ubiquitous sentence in American history: "I feel the need... the need for speed!"

Scholars specializing in the history of Appalachian tourism are still debating whether or not this was intending to be the foundation for the go karting industry in the Smoky Mountains, but the fact remains - if YOU and your family have a need for speed, the Smoky Mountains are where you want to go!
