Mark your calendars for Saturday, February 6, 2010. It’s time to kick those mid-Winter blahs. If you’ve been to Kart 2 Kart before, you already know it’s a BLAST. If you’ve never been there, you don’t know what you’re missing. Go to Kart2Kart.com to check out the cars, the track and the facility. They are located at 42705 Van Dyke Avenue, just south of 19 Mile Road.
Their karts are 5.5 hp racing karts with hydraulic disc brakes, racing slicks, and a whole lot of fun built in. Their timing system captures all lap times for all cars and prints out a timing sheet at the end of each driving session.
Our track time begins at 1:00 pm and will be in their Grand Prix format, which has two practice / qualifying sessions, and a race session with drivers placed on the grid based on their qualifying times. With this format, you will get a lot of GO for your dough.
Helmets, head socks, neck collars and driving jackets are provided. You may use your own helmet if it has an eye protection shield. You will also want to bring some warm driving gloves. Soft drinks, snacks and adult beverages are also available.
We are limiting the maximum number of entrants to 20 drivers this year, and the entry fee is $45 for all three sessions. You will pay Kart 2 Kart directly upon your arrival, not me. This is the arrangement we used last year and it worked out well.
Reservations to me will be accepted in the order of receipt, up to the maximum of 20, so DON’T WAIT. This is a very popular event, so RSVP to me early if you can. If you don’t, someone else could contact me first and might get your spot.
If you have questions about the event, availability or registration, please contact me at:

On the day of the event, in order to check in with me, to find out what run group you are in, and to attend the mandatory drivers meeting with safety briefing from K2K, we should meet there NO LATER than 12:30 pm. Unless you are coming from around the corner, you might want to aim for a bit earlier to allow for traffic and/or inclement weather. K2K rules specify that late arrivals cannot just jump into karts. They need to be briefed, and this can take extra time. Our track time is scheduled to begin promptly at 1:00 pm.
Event Timeline Recap:
ASAP RSVP to me to reserve your spot and get on the official Drivers List.
February 6 Event date, arrive well before the mandatory 12:45 pm drivers meeting. |
