Am arm and a leg....I think the Go-kart track idea would be a bit less in price adn would be a great idea (Arnold's Go-Karts)

Wouldnt it be hard to get ATCO? Everynight something is going on. Wouldnt we get stuck having to rent it during like a weekday afternoon?

i think there may also be a cap on the number of people allowed to rent atco.

in example, you may only be allowed to have 20 people, so you could never really get the price down that much.

speaking of go karts there is a get together there at Arnolds THIS sunday at noon for anyone who would like to come. details in the events section

they are badass karts!

To be honest, I actually thought the cost would be more than that. Lady - how long of a time period was that for?

Yeah but I think the day is about 6 hours long or so, so it really isn't that bad of an investment for people who are really looking to tune their cars for the track. I like the sound of renting it.

yea and just think how many runs we all would get. But how cool would it be if we had an annual TST drag day with 100+ cars.
and 133 a car isn't that bad

Ok so 15 is the max well maybe ask them if we can at least have a whole bunch of us hanging out there while others want to go tune their car there. They never said anything about being able to hang there and watch. Maybe you should ask them that?

you can have as many people there as you want spectate. It runs all day from 10-430 and its worth it. nice fresh track, no wait, no immature kids, just racing and tuning

15 person max makes no sense to me. why wouldn't they want to get more people in and get more $ per car?

Drag racing isn't enough of my thing to be spending $100+ on it. :(

It would be awesome to rent the track out with a bunch of people, but the most I've heard is around 10 cars.
