A go-kart track is coming to Newton County, a welcome addition for those residents who say they’re starved for local entertainment options. The Newton County Board of Commissioners approved a conditional use permit to allow Monroe resident Dan Moore to open his Atlanta Gran Prix Karting business at 350 Old Oxford Road, Covington, the former, 7-acre site of a commercial truck-driving school. Moore is leasing the property and plans to add a quarter-mile go-kart track and rent go karts to the public, with a focus on recruiting corporate events.
