We value every comment, compliment, and suggestion, and we’re always working to improve our Pro Karts and Nelson Fun Park experience. Tell Us About Your Experience HAVE A CONCERN OR COMPLAINT? WE APPREIATE YOUR BUSINESS ALLIANCE GROUP Hi Nick, just wanted to say again thanks for the great day, everyone's still raving about it. Cheers Peter Ward (Personnel Manager) Alliance Group LTD. Nelson (Bathurst) NELSON MAIL We have been to Pro Karts twice now for our work functions, each time it has been such a good way to bond or 'get one over' your work mates. Everyone that raced found it extremely exciting, it brought out the competitive streak in everyone, even the quietest people in the office. Nick and the team were very accomidating and the whole race was professionally organised and safe. I would suggest this for any workplace to truly get to know each other. regards Justine (Nelson Mail Social Club President) (Bathurst 200) PRIVATE FUNCTION Hi, that was an awesome experience, I have been to a lot of different functions/events around the country over the years, not only was your event a lot of fun but it was the most professionally run one I have ever attended. Thanks Guys Mark Johnstone, AUCKLAND (Bathurst) BARTERCARD NELSON Hi Nick Thank you so much for your hospitality and organisation for the first annual Bartercard Ford v Holden Bathurst race. It was thoroughly enjoyed by clients and staff alike. I would recommend that any business who are planning a team building or perhaps corporate client function get in touch with you to custom make an event to suit the companies requirements. We look forward, as do our clients, to next years race where I am sure that Ford will be victorious! Kind regards, Rachel (Bathurst with catering) CAN PLAN STAFF FUNCTION It was with much excitement and expectation that the staff and partners at Can Plan met at the Pro Karts Track in December to begin our Christmas Work Function. There had been a lot of BIG TALK back and forwards in the staffroom and on the RT about who was going to be Champion for the day. It was no surprise when a couple of the staff members initially emerged as the ones to beat. Issie was at the top of the leader board going into the final with the best place on the grid, and all through the laps he looked like he had it in the bag… until (Murphy’s law) the last lap it went all wrong (he says he was pushed)… Mike’s Partner, Charmaine breezed past, followed by Ben, then the boss himself. We are very pleased to say that Issie went on to enjoy Scotty’s Gourmet BBQ at Plan B (which was superb, with a relaxing atmosphere and great cocktail menu - cheers Steve) with only a few quiet conversations about how the racing will be different next year! (NZGP event) RADCLIFFE ELECTRICAL We have been to Pro Karts a number of times over the last months, to organised events and also to have some fun just doing laps with mates. All the organised events from the Grand Prix sprint races to the Bathurst endurance events are all very well run. Everyone comes away with a smile and can’t wait for the next track session. We have found it a great way to earn a few brownie points with customers and staff alike, just bloody great fun. A great place to sort out the men from the boys when it comes to driver ability, would highly recommend anyone to give it a go, we will be back there again in the near future. Thanks Nick, well done. Regards Vaughan Radcliffe Electrical, Richmond (NZGP & Bathurst) JAE SERVICES “We have used ProKarts grand prix style racing as a mid winter “pick-me-up” event for our staff for 3 years running now. Nicks team are professional, really making sure you all have a good time and play along the formula one role with lap times, grid starts and podium finish. This year the winners got bottles of bubbly which was a great bonus too. Nick gives out a trophy which is carried with high regard by the winning staff member as bragging rights until the following year! Highly recommended for businesses looking for something a bit different from the usual after works drinks and to create a bit of zing amongst the team that lasts well after the final lap. Good work Nick and co!” Cheers Andrew Smith JAE Services, Tahunanui (NZGP event)

Explore the story of Pro Karts and Nelson Fun Park—how a small karting track grew into Nelson’s go-to destination for adventure, relaxation, and community connection. ABOUT PRO KARTS & NELSON FUN PARK What began as Pro Karts in 2006 has evolved into a vibrant adventure hub combining Pro Karts and Nelson Fun Park. From karting and laser tag to trampolines and spa pools, our story is one of growth, innovation, and deep roots in the Nelson community. FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO A UNITED HUB OF EXCITEMENT IN TAHUNANUI. Our Story: From Humble Beginnings to a Thriving Adventure Hub Pro Karts was born in 2006, founded by Nick Fowler, a passionate motorsport enthusiast with a background in speedway racing. What started as a dream to bring the thrill of go-karting to Nelson has since grown into one of New Zealand’s premier outdoor karting experiences. Our track, strategically located next to Nelson Fun Park in Tāhunanui, was among the first purpose-built go-kart tracks in the country. The journey began with a simple mission: to create an exhilarating and safe racing environment for people of all ages. Over the years, Pro Karts has evolved into a multifaceted adventure park, offering not only karting but also laser tag, trampolining, and other entertainment options that draw visitors from across the region and country. Pioneering New Adventures: Laser Tag and Trampolining in Nelson Innovation has always been in our DNA. In 2013, we introduced Nelson’s first-ever laser tag experience—and one of New Zealand’s first outdoor laser tag arenas. Our open-air battlefield brought tactical excitement to life, offering a real-world experience filled with natural cover, bunkers, and open terrain. It quickly became a favourite for birthday parties, corporate events, and thrill-seekers looking for something unique. Then in 2016, we made history again by launching New Zealand’s first outdoor trampoline park. Situated right here in Tāhunanui, this large-scale, open-air facility offered high-flying fun in the fresh air, featuring bounce zones, dodgeball courts, and more. It was not only Nelson’s first trampoline park but a national first, further cementing our position as leaders in family entertainment. Resilience in the Face of Adversity In March 2014, Pro Karts faced one of its toughest challenges when a fire broke out at the facility. Despite the significant damage, we emerged stronger—rebuilding and upgrading our site to ensure an even better experience for our customers. This resilience is a testament to our unwavering commitment to top-quality entertainment, no matter the obstacle. A Growing Family Later that same year, in 2014, the Pro Karts family grew when Nick met his now-wife, Betsy, and her daughter, Olivia. Since then, Betsy has joined forces with Nick to bring out the best in the opportunities before them. Together, they’ve strengthened the business, making it not just a place for thrilling experiences but also a cornerstone of the Nelson community. The Birth of IORK In 2020, we took our passion for karting to the next level with the inception of the Indoor & Outdoor Rental Karts (IORK) Championships. This national event has quickly become a highlight in New Zealand’s karting calendar, attracting competitors from across the country to test their skills on our challenging track. IORK represents our mission to promote karting not just as a leisure activity, but as a competitive sport that brings people together. Award-Winning Excellence Since 2017, Pro Karts has been consistently recognised with the Excellence Award and/or Traveler’s Choice Award by TripAdvisor every year. This recognition reflects our passion for delivering outstanding service and unforgettable experiences for our guests. We’re proud to be acknowledged as one of Nelson’s top destinations by those who matter most—our customers. Expansion and New Ventures Our momentum didn’t stop there. In November 2023, we proudly expanded our operations by acquiring Nelson Fun Park. This milestone allowed us to bring even more family-friendly activities under our umbrella, creating a unified hub for fun, relaxation, and adventure. Then in July 2024, we launched Oceanside Oasis, our luxurious spa pool private hire service, set within the Nelson Fun Park complex. Designed as a serene retreat just steps from the action, Oceanside Oasis offers a unique chance to unwind in heated spa pools surrounded by beautiful landscaping and coastal vibes. A Vision of Tranquility: Expanding Oceanside Oasis By late 2024, our vision for Oceanside Oasis had grown. We began work on a purpose-built, expanded spa sanctuary to provide guests with an even more elevated relaxation experience. With enhanced private spa zones, native plant landscaping, ambient lighting, and premium amenities, the new area was designed to be a tranquil escape for couples, families, and friends alike. This development marked a new chapter in our story—showing that adventure and relaxation can exist side by side, right here in Tāhunanui. Rooted in the Community: Giving Back and Making a Difference Being a part of the Nelson community means more to us than just running a successful business—it means giving back and being involved in what matters most to the people around us. Over the years, we’ve proudly supported dozens of local fundraising events, donating prizes, vouchers, and activity passes to help schools, sports clubs, and community groups raise essential funds. Whether it’s helping a school gala, a junior sports team needing new gear, or families raising money for medical costs, we’re always open to lending a hand. We believe fun should also fuel positive change. Beyond ongoing donations, we also host and take part in larger community-driven events, including our cherished annual IHC Day—a day dedicated to bringing joy and unforgettable experiences to individuals with intellectual disabilities. It’s a highlight of our year, as we welcome IHC families and caregivers for a day full of smiles, racing, games, and shared celebration. Our connection to the community goes far beyond our gates. We actively participate in local festivals, partner with like-minded organisations, and continue to seek opportunities to create meaningful impact—because for us, success isn’t just measured in laps or ticket sales, but in how much we can give back to the people who support us. Looking to the Future As we continue to grow, our eyes are set on the future. We’re always looking for new ways to innovate, expand our offerings, and improve our facilities. With exciting new activities on the horizon and a relentless drive to exceed expectations, Pro Karts, Nelson Fun Park, and Oceanside Oasis will continue to be Nelson’s ultimate destination for fun, excitement, and unforgettable memories. Thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to welcoming you soon—where the thrill of the race is just the beginning.
