my best is 45.4

[nyskg]

but those karts are not equal .They have different tires to.Try to get the dunlops instead of raptors;)

[Kennedy]

That looks like fun what are the rates like for the karts, f1 and f18 sims?

[Kennedy]

And what is the tactical combat training room?

[nyskg]

for karts is 18.50 ( for 8 min race) but you have to get membership for about $20
F1 simulators are 20$ for 3 races i think but I didn't like them to much!

God damn I hope the food isn't as expensive as the simulators and karts.

[Stage X Tuning]

if we get a big group we will most likely get a discount

[shadoxkila]

yo that looks friggin sweet, and its not that far away....i'm surprised i never heard of it

[PitsVtec]

I have never heard of it either...

[Stage X Tuning]

And what is the tactical combat training room?

similar to the training that cops and swat teams go through

[Cakes206]

My pops was tellin me bout this place. Went to go check it out, the owner let him try the simulators...it is expensive as hell though...as if track days weren't 'nuff :lol:

Sweet is right and youll be back again and again trust me, the have a custom Green Monster Kart that they said does 50-60MPH and you get to use it if you beat the track managers time. and i cant take for that to happen... the normal karts do 20-40MPH

I have never heard of it either...

they just opened up like 2 months ago, they have been working on it for one to two years.

And this can be used with what a group of people etc?

[Marker54]

Thats place is awesome, went there years ago when it was called Speedway 17. Looks like they've done a lot in terms of upgrades and new things to do!

[njf4i]

I can't make it this tuesday do to lack of funds. But if you do it again the week after, i'll be there. Just look for the guy without a bike driving in a red truck with sba stickers on it.

Can you use your own helmet there, or do you need to use theres?

[Stage X Tuning]

And this can be used with what a group of people etc?

yea i think up to 4 people i think

not that i know of, i think is more height, i have seen 12-13 year olds, but if you dont have a DL you can only go 20MPH

its busy but not that busy on the weekends at lest the one time i went, and NO not really any punks or lil gangstas

[Stage X Tuning]

see you there

[lifestylez]

v-17 is nice but kind of expensive but then again where else in jersey are there any indoor go kart tracks that have plenty of technical turns..ive honestly seen people get hurt from not braking in time and smashing into a wall its that intense..but for some reason i keep on going makes me want to just take the engine off of my bike and putting it on a go kart chassis

[buckle up]

My pops was tellin me bout this place. Went to go check it out, the owner let him try the simulators...it is expensive as hell though...as if track days weren't 'nuff :lol:
is the guy who owns the place a some british guy?? cuz last time i was there with a bunch of people ..that guy was very uptight and made the first time i was there not as fun as it should have been...carts were fun other than that..but the british guy was trying to black flag all of us just because we were having a great time and acting like clowns ....to each other....and i asked the dj guy by the track if he could play some hatebreed...

that british guy needs to calm the hell down he was beeing rude:ohmygod:

[Shelly]

That looks like alot of fun. Might have to hit that sometime!

[RAC]

Its a little on the pricey side to go there but worth it once in a while...

[Snafu]

Good times
