Vortex is a Go-Kart track located at Fun Spot America in Kissimmee, Florida, USA.^[1]

The track opened on June 2, 2007 with the rest of the park.^[2]

Design

Vortex is one of Fun Spot's many multi-level Go-Kart tracks, standing 40 feet tall and closely interacting with Chaos, the park's other multi-level track.^[1]

It runs with karts manufactured by Texas-based company Shaller Engineering.

The layout consists of a large 1260° upward helix before a large drop, leading into a 32° banked left turn, that is followed by another drop, followed by a right turn, and a straightaway.^[1]
