 Andretti Speed Lab
There is nothing about bombing down a high-speed straightaway in a high-performance SuperKart that is similar to driving whatever it is you drive - with one exception.

You don't want to stop for directions. So take a tour of the facility. And learn the lay of the land.

Interactive Simulators
Reaction time on the tracks a bit sluggish? Slip into one of the interactive racing simulators for a little refresher course.

They've dedicated over 10,000 square feet to an arcade with over $1 million worth of the latest video and virtual reality games. There's football, basketball, hockey, soccer, and you guessed it, more racing simulators than you can shake a dip stick at.

Climbing Wall
Even if you never race a single lap, you'll still need more than a day to do all there is to do at Andretti. Take the climbing wall - if you can. It's four stories of near vertical climbing. And whatever you do, look down - it's a thrilling view.

Zip Line
Climb up a steep incline over 4 stories. Grab on and load up. Get the green light from a "dragstrip" syle timing system. Now fly 300 feet across the room at 25 MPH. Please bring a change of underwear.

Ropes Course
High above the madding crowd, a group works together to cross an intricate webbing of ropes, beams and cables. There are series of bridges, jumps and challenges. The team figures it out. They share something. They bond. They count the number of bald spots below.

Billiards
There are more subdued activities at Andretti if you ever tire of racing (blasphemy). In a private, quieter room off the arcade, you can smoke cigars and play billiards at one of six professional nine-foot Brunswick tables. They overlook the tracks - so you're never too far from the action.
