How about a Gokarts outing in Sydney???

Why should all the Queenslanders have all the fun?

I recall Caff may have looked at this place for a work function.

Fast Lane Karting

Let's put it out for discussion, for a early or mid-week night, they can do a corporate style event (minimum 10) for just $60.

I'm pretty sure Craig would volunteer for the podium girl position, but it would be preferrable to actually have a girl there instead :P

Cheers
Nuno

I looked into organising an outing to the same place with a group of friends, just got lazy and it never happened.
Sounds good and not overly expensive.

just looking at the site. we could even do the full gran prix one for $99. that seems like a pretty good deal for 4 hrs.

have a morning or afternoon cruise before/after the event also!

I did the minto circuit last year, if it hasnt changed the circuit is a tad small and the karts are not the quickest.

Wouldnt mind giving the eastercreek circuit/karts a go, but its almost double the price....

4 hours of go-karting = dead arms + knackered factor. I dont think I would be up to cruising afterwoods.

Interested in event, dependent on date.

Never been to the Minto one, I'd give it a go just for the price tho.

Eastern creek is great fun, fast kart and nice track...but the cost is a killa.

Either way, I'm interested.... 8)
