Here's what you need to know!
Start your Vmax adventure by registering to receive your race results and choose your driver name. Create your driver profile at the registration desk before heading to the reception!
Once you purchase your desired session or validate your online voucher, you will be assigned to a session. Here you can also become a Vmax Member by purchasing a membership card.
Is it your session's turn? Grab a helmet and come to the briefing! Before the race, our staff will show you how to drive and explain the safety rules.
Now you're ready to race! Get into your assigned kart, adjust the position if needed, buckle up and make sure your helmet's visor is closed.
After the race, you can check your results on the screens in the venue, by email, and online on the leaderboard.
At Vmax, safety comes first, which is why the track is equipped with the latest generation of lateral barrier protection systems by PGK Design, world leaders in innovative safety systems and revolutionaries in the indoor karting industry.
Automated systems and race control
The race is continuously monitored by a specialist via the CCTV system and 28 cameras installed on the track.
In the event of an incident, karts can be remotely controlled, limited, or stopped, thus avoiding dangerous situations.
The track also features a virtual safety card system similar to Formula 1's, fully automated, which will alert drivers if they approach a corner where an incident has occurred and will slow down or stop the kart if necessary.
These systems work seamlessly together to create the safest possible experience.

ABOUT VMAX KIDS
Yes. The condition to participate in Junior sessions is a minimum height of 140 cm, to reach the pedals.
As the transition of minors from junior karts to adult karts is an exception not a rule, we reserve the right to select which minors may access adult sessions and karts. Selection is based on multiple criteria, and the final decision regarding access to adult karts always rests with on-site management.
Additionally, we do not recommend weekends, as these periods are typically very busy, and allowing juniors to participate in adult sessions involves a significantly higher level of risk.
We would like to note that, although we have a single track, Junior and Adult sessions are separate. Parents have the option of participating in junior sessions in Junior karts, with the note that these may be less suitable for people over 175 cm in height. Additionally, this exception can be made during the venue's free time.
