South Florida karting, any takers?
well Kevin (BladesNSX) and I have been talking and decided that it would be cool to do a meet that involves an activity.. So I found out that there is a karting place down in North Miami called Mega Racing. http://www.mega-racing.com/ . I called today and spoke to them.. Told them the story that we are a car club looking to get together soon, etc. etc..
The deal is like this.. If we have 14 people, we have the track to ourselves.. A single race takes 15-20 min so we can do 3 races in an hour and it will cost us $50 per person..
They can also isolate a portion of the parking lot for our cars.. Apparently, it has been done before because he didn't flinch at that request.
The only down side to this is the days.. They are only available to do this on Mon-Tue-Thurs-Fri from 6-11pm.
odd hours but whatever.. We can do it on a Friday night I guess..
So far I have about 6 people down.
I am thinking of doing this in the next couple of weeks.. Maybe dinner after???
suggestions and comments welcome!
anyways, i think this is pretty fun...also a good chance for all of to compete against each other and (did I mention?) fun.
Oh yeah, the minimum age (just in case someone is bringing little brothers, cousins, sons, etc) is 15 because these karts are pretty fast..
The guy at the track told me they top out at 40 MPH which is pretty quick for a go-kart..
Oh yeah, the engines on the karts are HONDA!!!!
