Good Go-Kart Places

[NickR33]

as the title suggests, anyone have a recommendation for good go-kart places around Melbourne? went to the one in Port Melbourne recently (indoor) and it was okay but after something a bit bigger/faster

been to Le Mans years ago and remember it being really good... any new places cropped up that I don't know about?

[Sunkist]

i'de still go le mans. the larger track is really good.

[R31Nismoid]

le mans is still the only place with longer track.

the one in cheltenham is indoor, and slow by comparison.

If you go le mans, take helmut with visor... i learn painfully no visor hurts lol.

There's a good outdoor one in South Morang, just on McDonalds road.

HAHA I took my own bike helmet when me and friends went there. They were all giving me shit, calling me a wanker / pro for bringing my own helmet - I was laughing while their faces were hurting haha.

dont they have visors on most of their helmets now?

I went like 3 weeks ago and had a visor..

[R31Nismoid]

This was Jan, but i can tell you now half of us had no visor!

haha that woulda sucked.. my advice is during winter, bring gloves.. other wise you'll finish with purple hands.

[NickR33]

sweet, so helmet and gloves check... actually I don't have gloves... who has freakin gloves mang!?

Gloves for the gym...

If you weren't such a "all compound, no gloves, no isolation" gym junkie, you'd have a pair

[R31Nismoid]

What kinda fag wears gloves to a gym, let alone FULL gloves.

For a thread that had no homo to start, I'm worried where this will end up!

[Birds]

Not full gloves, fingerless gloves. They give you much better grip when you're pulling 250 pounds on lat pulldown...

Also stops your calluses from getting too big. It's not the most attractive thing when you're holding the hand of a girl...but hey...your men might not mind Ash

hey I do isolation... should have seen me doing laterals last night... I even did some bicep curls, but shhhhh don't tell anyone

lat pulldown is ghey... do some pullups like a real man;) lol

but yeah I don't use gloves... my wife uses gloves in the gym... but that's because I don't want man hands on my junk... so I'm all like women, put your gloves on and shit... totally... also I refuse to hold hands

back on topic... go karting eh... good stuff... can I wear dish washing gloves?

[Birds]

Dish washing gloves with the fingers cut off and Martini Racing written on the side...yes

[bluey33]

Silhoutte karts northern suburbs... 2 strokes. not bad at all!!!

Just make a cruise of it.

[teK--]

+1 for silhouette. pretty quick 2 strokes. Ones in thailand even quicker though (scary) and no harness lol.

Cheap crap $5 sunglasses > Visor

Being 0.010 seconds of getting the Gold Kart qualifying time = compulsive rage. They are open till 11pm, so I tend to go late when I go simply so you wont be waiting in line forrrrreveerrrrrrrrrrr. I'd be a lot happier if they made the two tracks into one, longer track. 36 second laps isnt really a 'long' track.
