Winter Karting 2013

ED: As of 1/27, the Feb. 16th event has 10 open spots. See below for more details

Per EJ:

MoHud is holding our annual winter kart outings. We currently have 2 events scheduled at Checkers Out Speedway, and will likely schedule a third at Pole Position in Syracuse, NY.

Same routine as last year: we’re hoping for a minimum of 10 entrants per event, max of 20.

Cost: is $400 for the hour of track time, split between all the entrants, so cost will range between $20-$40 per person. SCCA membership not necessary. Please bring cash – a $20 or two and some smaller bills is always helpful. You will also need to pay a one-time $10 license fee for the season.

Helmets: bring your own or rent; only requirement is it be DOT approved. Helmets with shields or other eye protection is recommended. Helmet rentals are available; you pay $5 for a headsock, which you can either keep or return for a return of your $5.

Clothing: Tends to be cold in the track portion of the facility, so dress in layers. I recommend having some gloves with you, too. Footwear that you can feel pedals with is also helpful.
