Science of Speed at Kamin Center | Pittsburgh News

Pittsburgh’s Kamin Science Center just unveiled its adrenaline-pumping new permanent exhibit, “Science of Speed,” featuring all-electric go-karts that rocket up to 40 mph on an 800-foot, three-story track. Mayor Corey O’Connor gave it a wild ride, calling it way faster than expected — and way more fun. Designed to draw everyone, not just daytime visitors, the center’s new “The Pit Stop” bar opens Thursday–Saturday nights for 18+, serving drinks and food. Daytime admission (10 AM–5 PM) includes karting for $14 (ages 7+, 4’ tall), while night races cost $24 with free entry. It’s not just thrills — it’s a smart showcase of how racing tech powers everyday cars. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
