We have a one day event with plenty of track time on March 3rd. The super cool part is the "Friends and Family" option scheduled for later in the day which permits you to put "trusted" Shocked folks in to your kart for a session under yellow flag conditions. It’s not a test session or a race, just a chance to convert on lookers in to new members through a controlled track experience.

If you are on the fence allow me to tip you over it Laughing
Thunderhill is a great track with high speed, technical and elevation change (over the hill) and easy access from the I5 corridor

Check out the video

Hi Dean

That's a brilliant idea.

In the land of regulation (UK) it could never happen!!

Best Regards

Not only does it help get people into karts that otherwise might not take the leap, it also allows people that race in one class to try out a faster kart. Say TaG to Stock Honda, or Stock Honda to Superkart. For some, it helps cement the decision to move up, or decide that they are happy in the class they're in.

Thanks Dean, right up to the point where I got swamped by you fast guys, and there was that whole thing with the engine eating a reed keeper. Sad

So Larry got caught out at the start "doing doughnuts" ? Embarassed
Larry I suspect eating doughnuts under the helmet visor and suprised by the moving traffic. Laughing Laughing

Actually Larry, doughnuts aside (or inside) I thought you were flying pretty hard around Thunderhill. Flying faster than ever before and clearly your rotor/stators agreed !
