So me and Adrian were talking about this, but would anybody be interested in getting a bunch of people together to go race at pro kart one day? Adrian thought that we could probably get some sort of large group discount if we got a lot of people to go. So yea...discuss.

I think we should all go do ghetto karts at the kart track in Newport. WAY more fun. Less safe too.

We've tried this before, with gokarts and paintball. Getting a large enough group to commit to it in advance is pretty hard.

If you can make it happen, awesome. I'd probably be in.

should we plan on just having whoever come and not trying to get a large group discount then?

Here's what we need to do. Set a date WELL in advance with all the info posted, set a cutoff date, say 2 weeks before the event (or if they need money up front, whatever that timeline might be). You put up your money by that date and you're guaranteed a spot. If we don't have enough people paid up front by the cutoff, we call it off and refund money. No long polls on dates, no long discussions of times, etc... someone just needs to take the lead and get it done.

What Jay said, if you want to run with it I'll probably be in (depending on date/time and cost).

alright everyone here is the deal. I got an email back from prokart this morning and the price is probably looking a little high. If we decide to just show up and pay the general price 3 8-minute races is going to be 52 dollars a person. If we wanted to rent the place out for an hour on a saturday it would be about $83-$105 a person depending on what time we show. So tell me if im wrong but Im feeling that these prices are a bit high for the most of us. Another option would be going to ghetto-kart (raceway to fun) in newport. The price there is only $5 per race. So im feeling that we should probably just go to ghetto kart and pay on a race to race bases untill people get bored of it.

Or until we get kicked out... I have a bad habit of totalling ghetto gokarts when my friends are involved.

I certainly would, for what you get it looks hard to beat. But we would have to find 10 people to commit to it.
