THIS WEEK!! Have you ever wanted to race? Here’s your chance! We are excited to announce we'll be hosting our 2nd sensory-friendly karting experience at K1 Speed Mississauga. The event will start at 8 am on Sunday, June 30th. At the event in March 2024, Gerry said “the fact that everyone else that was going to be on the track was also on the spectrum helped with [my son’s] anxiety, and there was certainly a wide range of abilities. Lap times were ranging from 22 seconds to several minutes.” Adults and Junior races are invited! We look forward to seeing you there!
