Comedian and SNL alum Jimmy Fallon went go-kart racing at RPM Raceway in Jersey City for a
"Tonight Show" segment.
RPM Raceway says the TV host along with the “The Tonight Show” crew and Formula One Red Bull race car driver Sergio “Checo” Pérez stopped by the entertainment venue Feb. 2.

RPM Raceway tells News 12 they filmed for a few hours, in collaboration with Ford and Red Bull, for a Fallon vs. Checo racing segment that aired Feb. 3. They played arcade games before hitting the go-kart track.
Fallon told staff members he plans to return with his wife and two daughters, RPM Raceway said. The venue was closed to the public for shooting, but Fallon said he’d be happy to pop by during normal hours.
