I remember making a comment a while a go in relation to go karts. Well, i seem to finally be getting everything on track and am still interested in having a dig. To those that are involved in it, can you please stand up.  [coffee]

I'm in, you name the time and the place.

Eastern Creek Karts have a mini Grand Prix option for ~$150. Two extra heats for an extra $40 :)

Hmm, i was talking more about the rotax ones. As in properly getting into it, but in saying that i'd be up for the eastern creek ones for a casual day(Have done them a couple of times before and they're mighty fun)

Every couple of months somebody says they are going to organise a day out, but then nothing comes of it.

So when you mentioned karts everybody got all excited again.

Hugh, you probably want to talk to Sydmonster.

Yeah, Syd was on the list. Anyone else?

Well Vince once owned a professional go-karting team (may be a slight exaggeration) ... I think Mick was looking into it for good, clean family fun ... and Super was organising the karting day.

Problems being Vince is AWOL/MIA ... Mick doesn't have a computer ... and Super is trading in for an old Jap project bike and has lost the love.

Yeah I've pitched it a few times getting a Kart day together but most people find it hard to give me
a day/date that will work.
If I just post one up and say this is when I'll organize it how many say they'll be up for it.

Betty
Jukie?
Matty
Vince?
Craigo
Big T
White Lion
Super (if he still loves us)
Goldfish (pending Dory's arrival)

Who else will be up for it.

i used to race carts also and know renzo(owner) at picton track.i do not know what sought of carts they have from a group/
corporate way but i can enquire.its been years since ive been there but if they have say the same carts then i think picton is the better.

mattyvas

If we have 12-20 people and go to EC they have the fastest hire Karts in Sydney. 13-15HP
I think Picton's are the usual 9HP that most people use. It is a better track but EC have two to choose from.
There top track is the better of the two, it has a fast downhill section that it is real fun.

I'm up for a blast on a kart!

Kembla karts have twin 4 stroke karts which do get along quite well!

Picton have the single engine karts which are a little slow going up the hill straight.

Sounds like Eastern Creek is the go! [thumbsup]

Whats the go about licences??

Rob
M1000SDS, ZZR1200, GPZ900R.
Gone:
900 Monster Special
S2R1000
998 Matrix

Six95

I might give it a go as long as it's not too exy

Pretty sure you don't need a licence. Prices are from 140-190, 140 being a 2 heat weekday session, 190 being a 4 heat weekend session ;)
