Fantasy Glades at Port Macquarie had a set before they closed. And so did Downunderland in Canberra.

We had a motorised set going back 15 yrs or so in Rocky.. When 'funzone' was where ian weigh toyota is now, games/lazer tag in one side, pool tables/cafe in next room, and the crazy cars/golf simulator in next room... After my family bought the place, the cars and golf stuff were sold not long after. aahhhh, good times:)

The cars were supplied to a lot of small amusement centres as they required about a third of the space of the average dodgem car floor.

There was a set at the Taren Point Putt Putt golf which closed about 15 years ago. They were not that successful.
