Plenty of people come to Hachimantai for its lovely hot springs and natural landmarks, but while you’re here, why not stop by the circuit for a few laps or a race between friends? Strap yourself into a go-kart and get ready to zoom around a course featuring hairpin turns, speedy straightaways, and a proper starting grid! They may be go-karts, but with a max speed of 70kmph, you’ll definitely feel like you’ve suddenly become a professional circuit racer.
Grab 3 friends and you can even hold a proper F1-style race, featuring 10-lap preliminaries and 10-lap finals.
