G-Force Karts in Richmond
I know a group of you guys were making plans to go to this place, did that ever happen?
I was there this afternoon scouting it out for a company event and got to do some track time. Two thumbs way, way up!
Severe understear around the corners while under power but it takes no time at all to learn how much to come off the gas to cut those corners just right. Fastest time out of nine laps was 32.13 (first time ever doing something like that, but with only one other kart on the track.)
Highly recommended if you ever get the chance!

Yeah, one of these days we'll get over there. Amber and I dropped by to take a look-see and also I purchased my "Race License" (membership) for $15.
I just heard the track record is 27.51 sec!

Whoever did 27.51 figured out how to take the hair-pin turn better than I. I experimented with a few different techniques in the short amount of time I had. I think the next time out, I could probably shave a few seconds off my time.
That way it will happen.
Love 'ya Mickey!
