Title: Prokarting anyone? (Ride Report)
Post by: Westy on January 14, 2009, 07:51:11 PM
Gabe talked about it and I think we should go!  Time to get the old Adrenaline going! [evil]  Is anyone up for a little go carting this weekend?  I was thinking Sunday would be a good day.  Check out www.prokartindoor.com  for directions.  I was thinking the Maple Grove place.  It opens up at noon, so I was thinking of meeting at 12:30 or 1:00 depending on what the group wants to do.  I will warn you that it is a little "pricey", but for going once a year it is worth it (for me anyway).  I would also bring your own helmet too (just a suggestion) .  Mo.....I think I can beat you this time  :).

Hope to see at least a few of you there.

I may be interested if I can get a kitchen pass.  Wife invited friends for dinner if they don't accept I am in!

I am still planning on going...let me know who is in.  Vino...did you get ur kitchen pass yet?  I know exactly how that goes brother...believe me, I had to get my kitchen pass secured before I even posted up.  Gabe are you still in?  Anyone else.  It is going to be fun.  If we want to, after karting, we can go out for a drink and talk bikes or something.  I will check back periodically, but if we have at least three people..I think it will be a go.  The plan is still to meet at the Maple Grove prokart track at 12:30...if you don't know who I am, I will be wearing the black DUCATI hoodie.  See you there.

Ok.  I will still be going...so I guess it is just Vino and I.  Anybody else is welcome to go...even if you don't post...so lurkers are welcome...just introduce yourself when you get there.  12:30 it is.

Well Ulf and I had a great time.  I let him win the first race, but on the second I swear I had a slower gokart   ;D.   My times were good but I was unable to pass the him.  He actually let me pass on the second race and then passed me up a few minutes later!  This would be a fun thing to do with a larger group of people.  Maybe next month or in March we can get a group together to go.  Ulf also brought up the good idea of having a ride out to the prokart track when the weather is better.  Anyway it was a good time had by all...two of us.   See you at one of the upcoming Notte Italiana events.  Speaking of which....this is another thread, but anybody going to the motorcycle show next month?

A good time was had by all.  If more people show next time the fun will be multiplied.  Let's ride out and do this in the summertime as they have an indoor/outdoor track at Prokart.
Westy, thanks for setting this up.
