Ack, the ones near my house at Boomers are slow as shit. You can put the pedal to the metal the entire time and run the course smoothly.

LOL, having flashbacks to the first time I tried a go-kart. I cut a corner too close and wound up wedging the front of the cart on a raised embankment. Since the back end was sticking out into the turn, they had to stop everyone on the course and come over to help me lift it off the embankment.

I was there on a date, by the way. Not my smoothest moment.

Man, I haven't been karting in years!

There used to be a twin-engined kart place near my parents house when I was in college. It was outdoors in Ireland which meant the track was wet roughly 110% of the time.

You could easily hit 100kph (60mph for the imperialists) on the back straight, turn the wheel.... and nothing would change! You would just aqua-plane right into a tyre wall..

good times
