liking the idea of Fast Laps and it being gas powered. i was thinking electric because they just opened on in the desert area and it would allow us to have more tracks to run on and set up a race series.


looking to put a meet together this weekend in the desert area. i know its last minute and not everyone will be able to make it but i was thinking we could meet at a restaurant for a meet and great.

The karts and tires are raggedy but it's a much more fun experience in my opinion.

I don't work for Fast Lap!

Costco members can buy a voucher online and it costs $6 per race (5 races for $30, races are at least 10 minutes and you'll get about 20-22 laps in) which can be used for any drivers. If you guys decide to go there, no one has a Costco membership AND scheduling works out, I can get the voucher and we can divvy up the cost. Just be sure to bring a helmet or head sock, otherwise you'll need to buy theirs for $2.

There's also Adams karting track in Riverside - it's outdoor and gas powered but I haven't been there in ages. It was a lot of fun ~10 years ago, not sure if it's even more beat up or if it's gotten nicer since they opened it up to cars.

Anyways, just throwin' it out there!
I've been to Fast Lap a few months back it's a great place! Adams in riverside allows you to track ur frs on Tuesdays lol

I remember hearing years ago that they opened up the track once a month or so for cars, they do it weekly now? Guess that could be a neat little novelty - and if it deters street hooligan behavior, awesome!

Yes Tuesday is the day of the week! I have yet to go because It is overtime Tuesday for me I might be going late this month when I'm on my mini vacation. Theirs a lot of members on this forum that have already gone. I believe @alex88 has gone to Adams in the past with his FRS. Although its a small track and it's meant for karts It's a good starting point for non experience track driving drivers to start.

Want to hear: Perrin cat back (resonated)

Been thinking about picking one up but I want to hear it in person first. Haven't been able to make it to any meets.

Anyone in the IE have one who is available? Preferrably with the rest of the exhaust system stock.

I'm in Redlands and willing to drive within reason (30-40 mi)

Thanks!!

I currently have the Perrin Exhaust Resonated Stock Front and Over pipe. I will be in riverside on Tuesday if you would like to hear my exhaust we can meet up unless you want to drive down to Palm Springs area.

What's up guys. Thought I'd poke my head in and say hi. I'm highly considering picking up an FR-S. I made the mistake of getting a hyundai veloster because i thought i would regret putting loads of miles on my daily commute.. now im kicking myself.. been having some issues with my V, so hoping to lemon it out. If Hyundai obliges, ill take the cash and get one.. if not.. well ill lose some money and trade it in i guess..

ohh, and I'm from Corona!
