I love those things. There's one by my house that I go to every once in a while, but damn they can get expensive.

we have our own place around here like that. We have a Drift Circuit, and F1 Circuit, and Turbo Car circuit. The Drift cars were so god damn fun...omg i cant even describe how it was. There were also Drag Cars, which used compressed air, and you had to press the "shift" button to get your second tank of air. i won that 2/3 times.

^^^ Na - these carts are still fresh - and I have raced against the owner of the facility a couple times - and I know he doesn't want to get a slow kart, so they are all nice and fast...

I may take a GPS on a couple rounds to get some top speeds..

Cool. I love going in these things. I alaways put them on two or three wheels, I've been to two outdoor tracks here and once I broke a drive shaft on a one because I was pusshing really hard in a 180 corner the cart was falling apart because I kept it flored and bam the cart stops going

These carts do look serious. Not like this shite here.
