Cool Idea for a Z/G meet: Dallas Karting Complex (60mph!)

http://www.dallaskartingcomplex.com/...id=74&Itemid=2



Basically, 60mph in these little carts sounds epic.
They also have 34 HP carts that do 90, but you have to qualify for those. and they're not cheap.

The pricing is broke down like this:

15HP / 60mph Adult Karts

(ages 12 and up**)
1st 10 Min. Heat Race: $30
2nd 10 Min. Heat Race: $25
3rd 10 Min. Heat Race: $15 (must be used same day)
4th 10 Min. Heat Race: $10 (must be used same day)

So you can get
10 mins for $30
20 mins for $55
30 mins for $70
40 mins for $80

plus $20 in gas and if you guys wanna eat or so, another 10.

I would be interested in doing 30 mins, so I am looking at spending about 100 bucks.

This would be a great thing to do in a group. We could do a weekend, even a Sunday.

- If you are cheap, dont even bother trying to act like you're interested.
- If you are a pansy and need to get approval from a spouse, dont bother, everyone knows you're not coming.
- If you're gonna whine about the heat, move from TX.
- If you wanna do somethign different and spend a little bit of $ doing something that you dont do often, let me know if you're interested. The track is big, lots of straight ways, and it would be an epic event.

I'm looking at any of the weekends in july, so that gives people time to save up. Also posting this on the G Forums and FB Group.

User name - Real name - What weekend works

Well I think I can get around the criteria listed. LOL

My only thing is my ridiculous work schedule. Since you wanted what weekend works, here goes...

1. ezpotato - Emad - need to see autox schedule before i can decide what weekend works for me, but pretty open
2. AllstarE4 - Eric - July 16-17 looks to be my next available weekend

Sweet! So in, saw something about this place a few weeks ago and was giddy like a schoolgirl at the thought of going, lol.

The weekend of the 16-17th should work for me too.

1. ezpotato - Emad - need to see autox schedule before i can decide what weekend works for me, but pretty open
2. AllstarE4 - Eric - July 16-17 looks to be my next available weekend
3. silverc10 - Dusty - 16-17th works, but should be able to shift things around for others

i love go-karts!!! next month's work schedule isn't out yet, so subscribing to thread.

Edit: and i'm going to take a wild guess and assume that you will need a helmet, or have a sweaty loaner one issued to you.
