Lotus demo ride got me hooked

[hobie1dog]

I attended my first Autocross today at the invitation of Chris Ross, and got 3 rides along the course during the Fun Hour. I can now see how you guys and gals get hooked on these events. I have road raced karts for 30 years and now have recently switched from lay down enduro's to a sprint kart chassis with a shifter motor on it. Hoping to start running some of these local events with you. I just wish I could run it in the Hillclimb events, but it seems they only do it in Europe and down in Aussie land from the videos I've found on YouTube.

Seems like a laid back fun group of people to hang out with.

Hey Marty - glad you had fun! We do hillclimbs, just not for Karts. Hope to see you at zMAX,

I expect you already know, but Carolina Motorsports Park in Kershaw, SC has a kart track. So does Mooresville Motorsports Park. Atlanta Motorsports Park in Dawsonville, Ga has a kart track as well.

Scott: I have only raced on full size RR tracks, as I started out on the sprint tracks 30 years ago, but didn't enjoy it very much as it is so darned tight and much slower speeds. I am planning on going out and getting on the new track in Mooresville. I went out last week to see the facility, it is marvelous.
