Chicago Indoor Racing Meet
Alright guys, time for another Chicago Indoor Racing meet.
The basics:
www.chicagoindoorracing.com
Official Date: Saturday, April 29 6:00pm
If you are racing, you must let me know by April 25th...at the latest.
Gran Prix - $70
301 Hastings Drive
Buffalo Grove, IL 60089
More details on the event:
------------------------------
What: Indoor go-kart track in Buffalo Grove, IL (off of Lake Cook rd, between 83 and 21). The experience is not like the crappy lawn mowers they pass off as go-karts at mini-golf places. This is actual racing, similar to the carting every F1 driver has done since they were a fetus. The cars top out at just over 35mph, but since you are low to the ground, it feels twice as fast. They're honda engines too! Racing techniques also apply in this environment. They also provide you with a race suit and helmet (although you can bring your own).
How much: Events range in price. The best deals are the group events. A "Mini Gran Prix" is $60. This includes 2 qualifying races and 1 race. A "Gran Prix" is $80 and is 3 qualifying races and 1 race. They also have "Arrive and drives" (non grouped events). This costs $25 for the first 2 races and $10 for every race after that. For the "Arrive and drives" you need a "license". A licesense costs $10 for 1 month or $25 for a year. The license is not required if you go for a group event.
Who: Have to be 18 and valid drivers license to race. Races are between 6 and 10 people.

There's a package for a Grand Prix that costs $85 (I think), and includes $13-credit for food and a $2-credit for games. I think the standard Grand Prix package is $80, so for $5 more, you get $15 worth of stuff.
I'm in.
