Feeler: Back by popular demand...Gokarting #3, the "Tri-fecta"

Greetings Nor-cal.

Since we had a pretty good turn out last time and it seemed like folks had a lot of fun, I just wanted to gauge interest in another go-karting meet. Since we've done LeMans in Fremont and Umigo in Livermore, this time, we will complete the "Tri-fecta" by going to GoKartRacer in Burlingame

To make it worth while, we'll probably do a "mega-track" night where the places usually combine two smaller tracks into one large one. Which in this case would either be Sun 5-9pm or Mon 12-10pm.

I realize some folks are busy taking care of things during the weekends (including myself) so I would suggest Monday night. But I'm also open to other options, ie doing both smaller tracks in separate sessions, etc.

Holler if you're interested, I'll start another thread later with a poll and more details as they solidify.

-B

I vote on a weekday (T,W,Th) for the 3 race for 45$ deal. Much more worth it imo. We can just switch off on the tracks or something.

They have time trail deals during the week for members (3 for 2 I think) and you can run both tracks.

Hmmmm, I'd definitely be down to join you guys. Weekends are generally better for me, but weekdays are possible depending on the time.

Thanks for the tip. As far as I can tell, these two are the same thing: Hot laps sessions are $25 per session (~10 mins) but on Tues-Fri evenings, its $45 for 3 sessions, so its almost like a 3 for 2 deal.

So it looks like we have a couple of options:
  • Sunday/Monday "Super Race" at the Super track for $45 which includes a 5 min qualifier and a 15 min race
  • Tues-Fri evening "Triple Shot" for $45 which includes 3 sessions (10 min per session, 30 mins total) on either or both tracks (switching between sessions)
Any preference? Although the supertrack is really fun, to me, a Tues-Thurs Triple shot seems to be a better deal with 10 mins extra for the same price.
