Go-Karting Meet- Speed Raceway???
I remember a little while back someone mentioned a Go-kart meet at the Speed Raceway but I don't think anything came of it. So I will try to revive the interest and see if there is any at all in setting one up?
There are 2 locations: Horsham, PA or Cinnaminson, NJ. They have totally different tracks at each location. Both have 2 tracks each being different. The tracks aren't very long since its more geared toward turns and overall skill. Anyone can drive in a straight line not everyone can corner well. Each race consists of 14 laps. The carts are electric since its an indoor facility. At the end of the race you get a print out of your lap times, the top 12 times of the week, and your ranking overall. If there is any interest then we can discuss the day we wish to go and time. Pricing - $6 Race License (yearly membership fee)(For first time goers) - Tuesdays they have a deal which is $40 for 3 Races. Each race consists of 14 Laps. - Every other day is $50 for 3 which is a decent deal. http://www.speedraceway.com/

Subscribed. I usually can't leave my office until kinda late on weekdays but am reasonably close to Horsham and I think I can almost always make something there if it's at 7ish.
Love me some winter karting ![]()

I started that last thread but there wasn't interest. If this is on, I was just there with some coworkers last week. The Tuesday deal sounds great - if we can wait til next week, I can probably bring some peeps.

We should try to do a Tuesday if it makes no difference either way - why not get the 3 for $40 deal...

If we're going to do it, let's do it right. I wonder if we can rent one of the tracks as a group so that other folks aren't mixed in with us. Hopefully that would reduce the wait between runs. Let's shoot for mid February so that we get some real interest going. I'll provide the custom-made trophy for the fastest lapper. Who's in?

My impression is that you need quite a few people to make that arrangement tenable, but I really have no clue what it costs to put it together. They charged us $70 to attend (through motorsportsreg.com), but I don't know how much of that is for fees, food and/or profit. If we're going to have 8-16 people, it's probably easier just to show up and have 2 run groups without a track reservation.

Yes this is true. We might be able to reserve a start time but I think renting the track would cost too much.

How bout we connect this to the Saturday PTF tuning day on Feb. 23rd. Pro Tuning Freaks will be here that Friday and Saturday, tuning and dynoing cars. I thought we would fire up the BBQ if it's at all nice, and invite people to come and hang at the shop. We could do an late afternoon/early evening at the kart track. Best overall time wins a homemade trophy.

I think I'm free on the 23rd - If you decide you want to do karting that day for sure please bump this thread a couple days beforehand.
