Things to do at KINEX mall in September 2019
Singapore Grand Prix is just around the corner, and if you’re all fired up for F1 race season, there are new pop-up ATV and go-kart circuits for you to conquer at KINEX mall – previously known as OneKM Mall.
From now till 31st October 2019, the mall is getting lit with a Neon Light ATV Circuit that resembles a scene straight out of Tron: Legacy, and an Outdoor Go-Kart Circuit for younger kids to enjoy. Here’s what you can expect:
Go full-throttle in an indoor Neon Light ATV Circuit
You may be used to the idea of ATVs trudging through dense jungles and muddy trails, but if the grit isn’t your thing, here’s your chance to try it out in the comfort of a shopping mall. And it’s not just some plain ol’ obstacle course – this trail’s been pimped out with dazzling neon lights that look befitting of any futuristic video game.
Hop onto an ATV that’s jazzed up with glow-in-the-dark paint, and ride through their luminous racecourse that’s lined with strips of blue and red neon lights. Since only one rider is allowed on the track each time, you’ll be able to have this dazzling route filled with nostalgic 80’s vibes all to yourself!
Revving up our engines in the sandpit
To amp up the adrenaline, the circuit also features obstacles such as raised platforms and a sandpit, so brace yourself for a bumpy and exciting ride across different terrains.
Those who’ve yet to learn how to drive needn’t be left out. You can experience a taste of getting behind the wheel thanks to a full gear of safety equipment that’s provided. These helmets, knee guards, and elbow guards are also sprayed thoroughly with sanitisers and wiped down between rides, so rest assured, they’re clean!
