Winter Karting event!

http://www.evomn.net/forums/showthre...le-guys-in-Feb

Post up when works for you, we'll probably do a weekend, not sure what day exactly. This will probably be the most cost-effective karting you ever do, awesome fun racing, shit talking, and of course beer afterwards!

Re: Winter Karting event!

$22 is well worth it. I remember last time I went, within the last 2-3 minutes were racing, I was exhausted. By the time we were done with the first 8 minute run, all of us were pretty exhausted. Can't imagine doing this in a F1 O_O

Re: Winter Karting event!

^ Haha i think they got larger karts and yeah i forgot to add that 8 minutes feels longer then one would think! But then again a quarter mile pass only takes about 13 seconds or so on average, but im sure it feels like forever especially for first timers.

Re: Winter Karting event!

To put it in perspective, 8 minutes is usually 20-25 laps.

NOTE! Website says they don't open until 11, so Revo wants to make that the start time! I will be down there around 10:30/45 so we can hang a bit.

See you there!
