Indoor Go-Kart Racing Track To Open In Stamford

RPM Raceway is scheduled to open on West Avenue in 2018.

From BML Public Relations: RPM Raceway, America’s ultimate all-electric indoor karting and entertainment destination, today announced that it is bringing its authentic racing experience to Connecticut, located at 600 West Avenue in Stamford, scheduled to open during the first half of 2018. In addition to competitive racing, the brand will feature dining and sports bar operations along with alternative experiential entertainment activities including RPM Lanes, a 14-lane bowling facility, racing simulators, a multiplayer virtual reality experience and a state-of-the-art arcade. Owned and operated by husband and wife team, Eyal Farage and Karen Davis-Farage, the new two-level, 90,000 square foot facility with two quarter-mile racing tracks will be RPM Raceway’s first location in The Constitution State and its sixth throughout the Northeast, which will add 100+ jobs to the local Stamford economy.

From weekend warriors seeking a quick thrill to determined racers looking to become the next Dale or Danica, RPM Raceway was created for racers of all levels. RPM Raceway believes that anyone can be a racer and that “Every Champion Starts in a Kart®.” Whether gunning it through its lightning fast straightaways, or finding the apex of each hairpin turn, RPM Raceway’s fastest lap racing format will elevate adrenaline levels as racers accelerate through its quarter-mile European-style racetracks in high-performance, Italian-made go-karts capable of speeds up to 45 MPH+. Race head-to-head during Arrive and Drive, gather a group of eight or more for a competitive racing event, host a personal celebration party or a large corporate/team-building event in its event rooms or put skills to the test among the very best during RPM Raceway’s year-round racing leagues. Grab a helmet, get behind the wheel and drive like a pro.

“We are pleased to announce that RPM Raceway is coming to Connecticut,” said Karen Davis-Farage, president and co-owner of RPM Raceway. “Indoor kart racing is one of the fastest growing forms of family entertainment in the country. After extensive research, we found an excellent location in Stamford that will enable us to build a state-of-the-art kart racing and entertainment facility that is fully-interactive and engaging. This is our sixth location in three states, so we are excited to continue our expansion as a brand and look forward to bringing our authentic and exhilarating racing and entertainment experience to the Stamford community in 2018.”
