While Atlanta is the anchor and capital of Georgia, you can aim in any direction to find distinctly different regions – from the tail of the Appalachians in the North to the rolling Piedmont hills and on down to the seaside marshes in the East. Atlanta lays claim to the state’s number one attraction – Stone Mountain State Park. They say it best - “Serious fun. Endless adventure.” Just 15 minutes from downtown, the world’s largest exposed granite dome is surrounded by 3,200 acres of natural beauty and stimulating activities for every member of the family – sky rides and hiking paths, laser shows and pedal boats along Stone Mountain Lake. Golfers tee it up, while red foxes dash across the fairways in a state where the Masters Golf Tournament creates revered green-jacket memories every year. It’s a long downhill ride down to historic Savannah, a ‘stone’s throw’ from the Atlantic and a virtual step back in time to Southern architecture and stately squares. St. Simon’s and Jekyll Islands offer barrier island beauty and a wonderful combination of outdoor activities, historic sites and artistic culture. Originally the private winter playground of wealthy northeasterners, Jekyll Island stretches along 10 miles of coastal beaches and inland marshes. Cycling and walking paths wind under moss-laden oaks, and a tour of Millionaire Village takes you back to those Cornelius Vanderbilt and J.P. Morgan days. The kid-friendly Summer Waves Water Park adds man-made fun to natural water sport activities. Coastal golf courses and sophisticated St. Simon’s Island appeal to moms, dads and vacationing couples.

Took my daughter here for her 1st race. Great race and really exciting finishing.500 miles no crashes or accidents and all the Drivers finished. Great track, easy to find. I understand that before the pandemic things were different at tracks from security measures, entertainment options, Food and shopping. Given the new norm the staff at the speedway did a fantastic job integrating new procedures into use. Everyone was distanced and in area needed wore a mask. They conducted minor non touching temperature checks and even the fan zone had things spread out. The track itself could probably use a resurfacing and having a small screen facing the front straight away seemed a poor choice. Maybe a bigger screen along the back straight away so all the fans could see it. We had fun and look forward to our next event in Atlanta.

We have been racing here for 35 years and it is our favorite venue. We stay at Chateau Elan and golf, eat and drink to our hearts content.

The track only has nine turns but includes a reducing radius turn and an off camber turn. It gives you a lot of uncluttered runoff room. Great track to sharpen your skills. Also has a very good snack bar, very friendly staff, and clean amenities. If you have the time, Savannah, a great example of an historic southern town with some very good restaurants and bars and hotels/motels, is a short (11 miles I think) from the track.

Blue Ridge had been missing the excitement of a dirt racetrack for several years… until 2016! Blue Ridge Motorsports Park is formerly known as the Sugar Creek Raceway, born in 1969 which served as a staple for the local community for years to come. Come enjoy live racing, and the best concession food in the South! Fun for all ages - family friendly!

K1 Speed offers a fun, exciting thing to do in Atlanta that delivers an unforgettable experience for friends, families, and businesses.

This makes K1 Speed the best entertainment venue & event venue in the area, and a great spot for a fun date night idea, family fun, social outings, team building, corporate events, company parties, birthday parties, bachelor or bachelorette parties, and more.
Great place for kids and adults to enjoy really exciting cart racing. They focus on racing without all the distractions of arcade games. The pit crew were excellent working with our young boys, fitting their cars to their size and encouraging them. Love the race statistics handed out at the end of each race. Boys love to compare their times and positions.
