Local Attractions

NCM Motorsports Park

Recreation
7 mi. away
Conveniently located off I-65 exit 28 and just minutes from the National Corvette Museum, the NCM Motorsports Park offer activities for novice drivers all the way to highly skilled racers – both on four wheels or two. There are even activities for those with no experience and no sports car to call their own! For visitors wanting a thrill, the NCM Kartplex offers high speed go-karts perfect to arrive and drive action including junior and two-seater karts. Race against friends or family for a fun and exciting session on the kart track. Minimum height is 48” to drive the junior karts and 60" for the adult carts or a valid drivers’ license. Passengers in the two-seater karts must be 42" tall. Closed toe shoes required for all (and available for purchase if needed). Regular hours are seasonal (March-November) with private parties available by reservation year-round! Geared for speed? Get behind the wheel of a Corvette (or Camaro) as a passenger or driver! High speed hot laps put you in the passenger seat with an experienced driver in a Z06 Corvette. The track also offers your choice of manual or automatic C7 Stingray Corvettes that YOU can drive for touring laps, or check the calendar for upcoming Corvette Experiences that include both classroom and in-car instruction, plenty of time on the track, lunch and a VIP guided Museum tour.

National Covette Museum

Museum
15 minutes away
Not only is the Corvette America's favorite sports car, but it's also the longest-running model car in the nation's history! And no other automotive museum in the world is dedicated to a single model car. So it's no wonder that enthusiasts and visitors alike are entranced by the 115,000 square foot National Corvette Museum located just off I-65 in Bowling Green, Kentucky! This top rated Kentucky attraction features over 70 Corvettes, most of which are on loan by private donors, that are showcased in periodic settings and include mint classics, prototypes, rare finds and racing champs. Families will enjoy the KidZone with hands-on activities for children, and the exhibit hall features rotating exhibits not always focused on the Corvette. Big kids love making their friends jealous when sharing photos of themselves in the "sitter" Corvette available in the lobby.
