Vietnam has its first indoor, multi-level electric karting circuit. InfinityRacing opened on May 30 on the fifth floor of Vincom Mega Mall Thao Dien in Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City, introducing a 300-meter, three-level track to local motorsport fans and family visitors. The facility combines high-energy driving with family programming, and positions itself as both an entertainment anchor for the mall and a community hub for electric karting.

 

The track crosses three floors and includes banked turns and ramps to create a varied, adrenaline-rich experience. During the opening promotion each session was priced at VND 300,000 (about US$11.50). Riders are issued full helmets and neck supports; for steep sections the operator recommends additional protective gear such as gloves and body armor. InfinityRacing uses electric karts supplied by French manufacturer Sodikart, which the operator highlights as an environmentally friendlier choice compared with petrol karts.

 

Beyond the headline drive experience, InfinityRacing's strategy is community-oriented. CEO David Guibal described the venue as "the start of a broader movement to build a healthy, electric-racing community," with plans to add outdoor tracks, launch training programs and form a racing club. A dedicated junior circuit with mini electric karts lets children learn racing basics in a supervised environment, supporting a pipeline from introductory play to structured training. The project also aims to promote traffic safety, eco-friendly mobility and active sporting culture across Vietnam.

 

From a commercial perspective, multi-level karting is a strong experiential anchor for malls and family entertainment centers (FECs). Large, memorable attractions increase dwell time and boost incidental spend in food & beverage and retail. They also broaden visitor demographics: adult racers, families with children, corporate groups and spectators. For landlords and operators, a kart facility can become a recurring-revenue generator when paired with memberships, leagues, training courses and events.

 

That pairing is where arcade and attraction suppliers can add immediate value. Karting naturally creates idle windows-waiting lines, cool-down periods and spectator time-when guests are still on site but not on track. Placing high-quality racing arcade machines in these zones keeps guests engaged, increases per-visit revenue and reinforces the racing theme of the venue.

 

Our racing arcade solutions are engineered for that purpose: they offer immersive driving feel with force-feedback steering, realistic gear shifters and operator-configurable physics so cabinet behavior can mirror the pace and feel of electric karting. Built-in cashless payment, remote telemetry for uptime monitoring, and modular layouts let operators deploy single cabinets in lounge areas or bank multiple pods for group play and tournaments. Integrating competitive leaderboards and packaged tournament modes also extends the guest journey-encouraging repeat visits and social sharing.

InfinityRacing's launch highlights a broader trend: malls and FECs are investing in experience-led anchors that create longer visits and stronger customer loyalty. For operators planning to capitalize on this trend, combining a flagship attraction like indoor karting with themed arcade experiences and data-driven hardware (cashless, telemetry, and modular cabinets) delivers a cohesive visitor journey-and a measurable uplift in revenue per guest.
