Go Karts/Theme Parks

  • It may be an odd question however I wanted to know if anyone knew if there was a weight limit on Go-Karts? I thought about taking DS to a place called Malibu Grand Prix where they have Go-Karts and Bumper Boats but I am a bit scared that I will not fit and the seatbelt will not lock. Has anyone had any experience with this? Now I am short 5'3" and most of my weight is carried in the middle.

    Any help would be great. Thanks in advance
  • I just googled about go-karts after reading your post and it looks like it depends on the place. Some say 300, some say 250 and then others say there is no limit. Do you know the name of the place you'd be going? Maybe they have a website?

    There are so many things I want to do this summer and there is a place we can do go-karts about an hour from here. You just inspired me to put it on my summer bucket list.

    I hope you give us a trip report when you go!!
  • As embarrassing as it might be, I would call and ask. The phone is a lot more anonymous than asking in person, and that way you will know!

    Its called Malibu Grand Prix. Although I am almost 50lbs down I am still scared to do a lot but willing to try new things. I have tried their website and it says their may be weight limits. I guess I will have to just break down and call. I haven't been in years so I don't remember. I have been this size for a while so I don't know.. eek.
    Glad that you put it on your summer bucket list. I may have to make one of those
