Tim,
Are they running the 9hp or 6hp Karts there???

6hp.....but they are the same karts as the superkarts at Wallingford. They claim 9hp karts are no faster. Could be true as at On-Track I've seen "Phonman" pull 35.8's with the 6hp karts. They do say they have some (or one) dual engine kart(s) that are reserved for VIP/Investors only, 12hp, but that even those are marginably quicker... Supposively they lift the front wheels off the top of the climbs/start of decline sections..

Also forgot to mention that the karts are remotely electronically controlled during cautions or if you happen to be deemed to have been driving aggressively. They just slow you down..... That said, they do let you race pretty hard.

And there is a warm up lap so bunch up (karts will be sputtering) coming to the flag.

And - if you go as a group or whatever, you are gridded by when you sign up for a particular race. You sign up first - your in the first car and so on..

the biggest difference between the 9 and 6 hp is the 9 hp have a little more torque out of the corners. They are probably good for 1/2 a sec. better lap times for a good driver. It all comes down to being smooth.

Ain't that the truth...

I am going to try to head over there this weekend.

I need to bring my suit and gear?

You do not need to bring anything except gloves and shoes if you prefer them - suits, helmets, balacava, and neck brace are provided.

When are you going?

Well, I was hoping to get there Saturday, but it seems my wife has already booked me for the weekend.....something about a honey do list.
