Singapore may be fresh off the heels of the Grand Prix wave, but if you are missing the high-speed thrill to fill your nights, we've got just the thing to for you. Get ready to rev up your engines and hop into the driver's seat as we guide you to the best spots to satisfy your need for speed. From gamified drives to scenic bends and heart-pounding routes, prepare for your race to victory at these go-karting sites in Singapore.

HyperDrive

Unlike the drivers in the Singapore Grand Prix, you don't have to deal with extreme heat here. Race in the comfort of the air-conditioned tracks at HyperDrive and speed through three levels of the 308-metre track.

More than executing exciting corners and slopes, you'll find yourself racing to collect weapons and boosts or sabotage other competitors in the immersive virtual race powered by Game of Karts. Charge up and be the first to cross the finish line, then fuel up at the HyperDrive Cafe with first-class views of the tracks.

HyperDrive is located at The Palawan @ Sentosa, 54 Palawan Beach Walk, Sentosa, Singapore 098233, p.+65 6277 7091. Open Mon-Fri 12.30pm-9pm, Sat-Sun 10am-9pm. Opening special tickets run from $35 per pax per session for off-peak hours to $45 per pax per session for peak hours.

Live your F1 dreams at the KF1 Karting Circuit, complete with an F1-inspired track lighting system, Italian-built go-karts for enhanced safety and performance, and a 960m long drive experience.

If you're a beginner, start with novice karts that run 30 kph; seasoned drivers can opt for more speed with advanced and professional race karts that go up to 50 kph and beyond.

Fancy a friendly race between friends or departments? Singapore's largest go-kart circuit tailors private and corporate events from eight pax onwards.

Bring your driver's licence to power up to 50 km/h with the go-karts, or if all you want to do is feel the wind in your hair, opt for the double-seater go-kart and have someone steer.
