Located in the parking lot of Unification Hill in Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju City, Kartland boasts an 800-meter track and single-seated go-karts that can run up to 60 kilometers per hour. Competition go-karts can reach speeds of up to 160 kilometers per hour. However, driving one of them requires a license, obtained by taking a 2-hour course in safety regulations and competition rules. Generally, the duration of the ride in single-seated or double-seated go-karts is 7 minutes, or about 10 laps around the track.
�� 7 minutes in a single-seated mini-car: 10,000 won
�� 7 minutes in a double-seated mini-car: 16,000 won
�� Competition car tuition fee: 60,000 won

Do you really want to be around highschool and university kids going 160km/h who two hours earlier couldn't even ride a bicycle?
