 Topic: GO CART RACING at TBC!Posted: 23 February 2011 at 11:43am |

OK, its a go. I'm starting a new thread in case some missed the discussion in the wrap up thread.
Here is a link to all the details: http://www.westcoastfieros.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=225 8 Everyone needs to be at TBC in Richmond for 5:00PM on Sunday the 27th. THAT'S THIS SUNDAY COMING UP.  Cheap price racing starts at 6:00PM but there are forms to fill out and the payment to deal with. The cost is only $10 per 20 minute race. That's cheap. Let me tell you, 20 minutes at full speed on a tight track is a work out. I would probably only expect to last 3 races maximum. It all depends on who you're racing with and how wimped out the cars are. Have fun! |

We can bring our own helmets? I get to use the flaming skull?!?! Automatic WIN! And two Tristans? That'll be odd, I'm used to being unique.
Glad you're coming, Ken. |

I'll hold off on the whole "entourage" until I hear how many people are going. Is the plan that we're all trying to be on the track at the same time? If so, what is the maximum number of people allowed on the track for each race?

Right now, I'm a maybe. Depends on how tired I am after the autox, or if the weather is miserable enough I might just skip the autox and do the go-karts only.

I think the max is abooot 13-15, if memory serves. And yes, that should 'I can't wait to beat Patrick'. Not sure where that 'at' is at.

Bah, Gran Turismo. We need a Forza night. So I can show you all why a 2009 Ford Focus RS with a 5.0L Cammer V8 and AWD would be the best thing ever.

Wrong console with all the right games. I really tried to like Gran Turismo, but you guys are celebrating the fact you caught up to Forza. Damage! In car views! Realistic tire physics! No other game (On the PS3...) has these things! Forza may not have 40 different Skylines (Not a joke) but I find everything it has, it does better than Gran Turismo (Engine/Drivetrain swaps, tuning, paint, bodywork, and the actual driving physics). Personal taste though. |

Tire physics... And automotive relations... Aw hell, I don't know. Point being: Toca > Forza > Gran Turismo > Shift On topic, it's Go-Karting. The 'k' makes it kool, like Mortal Kombat. |
