About Us!

Fun World Motorsports is a family-owned and operated go-kart track in Emerald Isle, North Carolina. We pride ourselves on having the fastest go-karts in the area and providing our visitors with a quality customer service experience.

Fun World was originally an amusement park in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. In 2007, its previous owner, Tony Walters, brought the business to its current location within the Emerald Isle RV Resort (formerly the Holiday Trav-L Park). Tony ran Fun World for over 25 years between the Myrtle Beach and Emerald Isle locations, and as of July 2024, he has sold the business and returned to Myrtle Beach to enjoy his well-earned retirement. The business was sold to Logan Smith, an employee of his at the time, and since then, Fun World has continued to be a staple of the vacationers’ experience at the Crystal Coast. The business will stick to its roots: a family-run, old-school go-kart track with a great crew.

John Hunt, Kathy Hunt, and Madeline Hunt still work with Fun World's new owner and will be on board for the 2025 season. For the past 15+ years, John and his family have been a key part of the quality customer service experience at Fun World, and they will be sticking around into a new chapter in this race track’s life. Many people return to see John and his family again, and rest assured, they do not intend to leave anytime soon.
