Default Z Drivers VS. G Drivers Go Kart Gand Prix!

This came up in another thread so I'll start it on here. Could someone please be the liason and Z rep? I would, but as of now Im not 100% positive i can be there.

Here's the link: http://g35driver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130474


"Come one, come all! This is what you all have been waiting for, its the Go Carting Grand Prix Challange. If you think you have what it takes to take home the title belt, step up to the plate and put on your game face. This will be happening at All-Sport Grand Prix in Sterling, VA. The address is:

Allsports Grand Prix
45915 Maries Rd. Sterling, VA
(571) 434-9566

Now i'm setting the date for the first weekend after the new years, which will be Saturday the 6th or Sunday the 7th. I want everybodies input first before we set the date. (Due to complications in the past). So I would appreciate if anybody who wishes to get their feelings hurt, to put your name down on a date. (Copy and Paste the list so it stays accurate, Please)"


1) Driven1 (Z)- Robbie (tentative for now, Ill know more closer to the date)

Just an FYI these aren't your run-of-the-mill go karts. Along with a helmet every driver is required to wear flame retardent jump suits. The karts are 6.5 hp which doesn't sound like a lot, but considering the kart only weighs 100+ lbs they're pretty quick.

I suck so maybe I should sabotage the G team! I find it's more fun to spin people out than try to stay in front of them

Which karts were you driving? The 6.5 hp or the 9 hp karts?

I read you can only drive the 9 hp karts if you're a current member.
