Wanted to see if there's any interest in renting the track for go karts this year. We usually need a minimum of 10 (And if we have only about 10, that means usually an hour on the track for each person.) We usually break it up in to 15 or 30 minute runs, and you can switch off with someone at the 30 minute mark IF we have enough people and IF you want to. Rental is usually after the track closes, 11:00pm I believe?
For anyone that has not done this before - it's an inside semi-slick oval track. They are gas go karts, so all the garage doors are open (It's almost like a warehouse) but you will have your eyes burning when done. There's also plenty of rubbings racing, so you may get banged up. Some years are worse than others, and we always discourage T-bones, but they do happen by accident if someone spins right in front of you.
I'll need to call and see if this is even doable on Friday or Saturday night, but wanted to gauge interest. I will require money up-front though - not going to wait until the night of and find out 5 people aren't showing. So I will need Venmo, Paypal or you can send a check if you really want if we go ahead with this.
Looks like track is $550 to rent for the hour. Price seems to go up every year. So may need to find 20 people to keep the per person price reasonable, unless someone really wants to drive the full hour @ $55.
Let me know if interested first off.
