Offical BAIC indoor/outdoor GoKarting thread

So I've got the Karting bug right now and can't get enough of it. Wanted to see if any fellow I-clubbers participate in this fun sport. With me living in American Canyon, Driven Raceway in Fairfield has become my "home course" if you will.

This thread is for karting stories and posting lap times from your local track for bragging rights.

I'm sure some people perferre gas over electric or electric over gas. Discuss your opinions by all means. And post pictures!!

Tonight was my 7th and 8th time out to Driven and since my friend is chums with the manager we got bumped to Speed 4 for our runs. Here's the standings for today's top 100 times at Driven FF.

Right now I sit at 19th for top lap time of the month. My goal is to get into the top ten

My friend Tyler(dosotorally.com there) and TylerSTi here on I-club and I have been going pretty regular lately.


So let's see your best lap times and discuss how you improved your times and techniques youve acquired to do so(if you want to tell your competition your secrets )
