So count me in.

I think Scott Pruett said that's where he got his start.

Did I use brakes? You kidding?!? That's what separates the fast from the slow! for this track my fast times use the following strategy.

Stomp on the brakes quick to initiate a drift for turn 1, modulate throttle to maintain a 4 wheel drift and go full throttle after hitting the second apex.

Full throttle through turn 2

Trail brake to apex on turn 3, do not use the concrete on entry.

Full throttle through turn 4, wide line, hit the curbing

Trail brake into turn 5, but not all the way to apex

Trail brake into turn 6 to apex

Full throttle turn 7

Throttle steer turn 8, don't think I brake much here

Trail brake to apex in turn 9

Repeat

All the karts are the same horsepower (that one was actually a little bit down, took 1.5 seconds off my best time in the video using another kart) I believe they have 9 hp.

My strategy will be to do what you did but go faster.

I could easily go that quickly but choose not to.

Thinking about it. Do the karts have cupholders? I'd hate to spill good wine.

I'm sure I can adapt my beer holder for that. Wine glasses or are you a straight from the bottle type of guy?

It'll be around $50 for two races.

Bottles? I'm all about recycling so stick to boxes.

It's not you. I'm from Troutdale, the center of the known Universe. The further away you go, the more things tend to speed up.

Sounds like a black hole. There's more to life than outlet stores.
