Anyone know what the status is with this? I just happened to think about it today and was wondering if this was still on track.

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.

I called the other day and this is what he told me.

$20 arrive and drive is an 8 minute session = about 12 laps.

I inquired about a group of 10 people and he said $35 a head will get you 35 minutes which includes practice, qualifying and a sprint race.

He said they were very flexable to accomidate most anysize group and desired time frame.

Anyone up for the first annual "24 hours of Garner"?? I guess we need to work on that name a bit.


I still think we need to press for some ballast weight for the smaller/lighter folks. Us big guys are at a serious hp/weight disadvantage with these things pushing 6-9 HP..... Maybe my wife was right all along with her motto "salad equals speed".....too bad she springs that on me when we're at the best buffet places...

We did that several times at Jungle Karts in the past. During the Spitzner administration.

Already ask about that. They do weight balancing of the cars so everyone is the same weight in challenge races, or you race in weight clases :)
