Website: www.gokartstoronto.comNearby restaurants: • They sell snacks on the premises but the Centennial Park Golf Centre’s restaurant serves breakfast, snacks and hot meals.
While you are there: • Centennial Park Golf Centre (a 10-min. walk south of the Mini-Indy) includes a large mini golf. • The Centennial Conservatory featuring a lovely greenhouse is a 10-min. walk from the Mini-Indy, on Elmcrest Road in Centennial Park.
• I suggest paying for one lap for the whole family but investing in at least 4 laps for the kids (one is not enough!), hence the $41 cost I estimated for the activity. You can all start together then they'll continue while you watch them. (Better yet, take advantage of the $2/lap deal on Tuesdays and Thursdays.)

Step on it!
According to my young co-pilot, I drove like a grandma on a Sunday outing. Since everybody was passing us on the track, I must admit he had a point, so I stepped on it. The place used to have a 2-km kiddie track but they’ve closed it. Instead, they have a .75 km recreational track where one has to be at least 54 inches tall or 10 years and older to drive alone. They also have double-riders where kids 4-9 year old can ride for free as a passenger. The place includes a 3,000-sq.-ft arcade. (They’ve opened a track especially for the members of the Canadian Karting league, who use more powerful karts.)
