Go Karting tonight?

I'm going to do the weekly enduro at Le Mans karting in Fremont tonight in case anyone is interested in joining. The Thursday night crowd is pretty friendly and the enduro is a great way to gain consistency vs. the normal sessions they do.

How much is it to race?

I think it is $50 assuming you share a cart. You can also do an iron man for $100, but that is a long time to be driving (I've done that several times, it is fun but exhausting).

You might also have to get the "license" which I think is like $20 or some such (they re-did the website so I can't find it on there).

I think the race starts at 7:30 so you should try to get there at 7:00 or 7:15.

I think its $70, but not sure. Enduros are fun, but alot of work. I was flattered when a couple buddies of mine invited me to be in their enduro team (at GKR) then immediately realize that the heaviest team automatically got the lightest kart... sigh #geethnxguyz #advantagefatty

It might be $70 after the license for a first timer, but I'm pretty sure the incremental is $50.

I wish these were weighted carts. The 150lb guys have an huge advantage to my 205lbs.
