Pole Position Raceway offers several Des Moines karting options. The most-popular go kart racing format is our Arrive & Drive program that allows customers to show up individually or in small groups and race in standard races. These kart races last approximately 10 minutes and drivers are separated into two categories. In addition to the adult karts (58" minimum height & 13 years old) we have kid's karts for racers who are at least 48" tall and can safely drive. We also offer group events and party packages that provide private racing and reserved time slots. These packages are available in two, three and four-race formats and include items to make the occasion extra special
