Weedsport Productions Debuts First-of-Its-Kind Kart Simulator at Weedsport Speedway

Weedsport Productions proudly debuted a groundbreaking new attraction at Weedsport Speedway during the Hall of Fame 100 and Empire State Championship on July 26 and July 27, 2025 — the first-of-its-kind Kart Simulator, developed in collaboration with Mardon PC.

This cutting-edge simulator marks a major step forward in accessible racing experiences, designed specifically to engage a younger generation of fans and introduce them to the excitement of motorsports in a safe, interactive environment.

A New Way for Young Fans to Experience Racing

While The Gearbox Driver Experience brings the thrill of full-size race cars to life for teens and adults, the new Kart Simulator was created to give kids a similar chance to get behind the wheel.

Featuring a scaled-down racing seat, responsive steering controls, and high-definition visuals, the Kart Simulator delivers an authentic driving experience tailored for younger participants. From start to finish, the system captures the fun and adrenaline of kart racing while maintaining the accessibility and safety that make it perfect for family-friendly events.

Fans lined up all weekend long to take their laps on the virtual track, and the smiles said it all — the Kart Simulator was a hit from the moment it fired up.

Developed by Mardon PC — Designed for the Next Generation

The Kart Simulator was engineered by Mardon PC, the same technology partner behind Weedsport Productions’ acclaimed Gearbox Driver Experience. Powered by Mardon’s high-performance computing systems, the simulator delivers smooth frame rates, lifelike handling physics, and quick response times — ensuring that even the youngest drivers feel the thrill of real racing.

This new platform represents a shared vision between Weedsport Productions and Mardon PC: to make professional-level simulation technology approachable, educational, and fun for all ages.

A Hit at the Hall of Fame 100 and Empire State Championship

The debut weekend at Weedsport Speedway couldn’t have been better. With thousands of fans in attendance for the Hall of Fame 100 and Empire State Championship, the Kart Simulator quickly became one of the midway’s most popular attractions.

Young race fans lined up to take their turn, parents cheered from the sidelines, and the energy of the crowd reflected exactly what Weedsport Productions strives to deliver — interactive experiences that bring fans closer to the sport they love.

The Future of Fan Engagement

As Weedsport Productions continues to expand its lineup of mobile simulators and event technology, the Kart Simulator represents a key step toward connecting motorsports with the next generation.

Whether it’s at a local fair, racetrack, or community festival, the Kart Simulator is designed to inspire young drivers, educate families about racing, and add a unique interactive element to events of all sizes.

The Weedsport Productions Kart Simulator is now available for rental at racing events, schools, fairs, and community festivals. For event organizers, it’s an exciting new way to engage younger audiences and families while showcasing the innovation that drives modern motorsports entertainment.
