Best Undercover Racetrack

Thunder Zone Go Kart Raceway & Arcade

No, we don't mean undercover, as in subterfuge, though we could certainly close our eyes and imagine ourselves James Bond in his Aston Martin DB5 when we get behind the wheel in one of these mini screamers. No, we mean "all-weather." Thunder Zone, located in Kyle on the northbound I-35 access road, right next to Thunder Hill Raceway (a legit 3/8 mile paved oval stock car race track), features two indoor, covered tracks, plus a bumper cart track, and an outdoor oval track. Not only that, but they have a great 6,000-square-foot arcade and birthday party area, plus outdoor sand volleyball courts. The carts at TZ are well-maintained and uber-suped. You and the kids can haggle over who gets behind the wheel.
