anyone want to go rotax karting? i've tried this the last couple years but these guys were poor at getting back to me, so i'm going to try harder this year to make something happen. in any case some basics:
dat speed: not sure what a cir gas or k1 electric top out speed wise. i can say similar karts flat out on a straight on an outoodr course will max at like 43. these will go to 50 like it's nothing. you'll definitely go 65 and probably 70+ sitting a couple inches off the ground. 125cc 29hp.
dem turns: these this will handle 1.1 1.2 even 1.4g's. you probably don't have the balls to take a turn that fast on one, and i know i don't.
dat course: it would be MRP
location: north liberty, in. 2h15m from gurnee. 1h40m from joliet or chicago loop. met up with peoria buddies last time and we had a hotel the night before. we also went on a morning with race classes, not sure that would be the same this time.
when: not sure, a sat or sun and one where sickmint79 is not doing a track day.
how many people: not sure yet, 4-8?
price: can go down with more people, we paid ~$300 pp iirc last time. iirc we did 4 15m sessions. yah it ain't cheap. you aren't exactly able to scoot a 70 mph kart around a race course with your friends just anywhere though are you?
rain: i think we can just cancel/reschedule in the event things look like they'll be wet.
gear: i'm sure helmets are available if you don't have one. last time we used their race suits and rib protectors.
reached out to MRP to get some more info. LMK if serious interest in scooting around.
