The next track we are reviewing is the GoPro Motorplex Circuit in Charlotte, North Carolina. The facility is world-class with state-of-the-art lighting allowing this circuit to be used all day and into the evening. With motor racing being such a big part of the town, it’s common to see Indy Car, Nascar and Sprint Car drivers on track during the week honing their skills. Drivers such as Will Power, Scott Mclaughlin, Jimmie Johnson, and Kyle Larson have been present on practice days which is something that the local club racers get the privilege to share the track with at the same time. 

About one mile away from the GoPro Motorplex is the Penske Race team operation. This is home to the Indy Car & NASCAR operations and these drivers are on the track most weeks. 

 It's a cool place to meet new people to build relationships with, and they run club events monthly with larger events taking place at different stages of the year.  The lighting facility they have at this track allows their rental fleet of karts to run for 12 hours a day, offering newcomers into the sport an opportunity to get started very easily.
