Go-Karting went well last Friday night at Hume 'SuperKarts' along with J-Racing. Disappointingly, the man who was in charge was a complete A$$H^$# to us. All the feedback that I have received were all the same, I mean we all had a good night and all especially in the wet but this guy certainly made the night a low. He was rude, hot tempered, and was evident that he showed no respect towards his customers. Considering the amounts of times I have visited in the past, I am very disappointed along with many other people and do not recommend 'Superkarts' in Hume to anybody else. But, I do thank the staff who were very helpful & friendly and I hope their employer do learn from his employees.

Does anyone else know any other Go-Karting places around Canberra as we want this to be a regular event. I know there is one in Fyshwick and I look forward to visit there in the very near future along with people who are interested to join us.

I've been going to Hume for ages too, and I've never had a bad experience with them. Maybe you just got him on an off day?

There used to be a place in Mitchell but it went bust many years ago. There is a dirt go-karting place down the sth. coast which is pretty cool, but a long way to drive! :D

I'm disappointed to hear your experience was so bad at Hume, but did anyone tell you that the day after your bad experience, the business went under new ownership?

I recall that exact evening - I was one of the new owners and we arrived to finalise all of the paperwork for our takeover of the business on 22 February.......

Give us, the new owners, a chance. If you have reason to not believe me about the new ownership, please feel free to ask any number of regulars - most of them are familiar with us now and are aware of it, and although coincidental, took place the day after your bad experience.

I like hume coz its got more space, the fyshwick carts are good, but its cramped and a lap only takes 26-28secs at the very most, its fun, but hume is definately a less repetitive track, i must go there again, i never have any cash lol

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
