Kart Track

[H2oDunc]

I was just wondering if the kart track in Maenam was still open for business ? I have passed it loads of times and often thought of pulling in and finding out but have always been pushed for time. Anybody ?

Cheers

believe it is. i've seen a few tourists coming and going lately. one of my friends got a bit crazy in there a few years ago and broke his collarbone so caution is advised lol.

Cheers Joe. No idea on pricing or what actual karts are available ? No doubt it would pay to just go and ask really

They have Junior, standard & Superkarts. Karts are tired, rock hard tyres. I know a superkart is around Bht 700 for 15 minutes from memory, could be wrong.

The actual track is now blacktop. One thing to bear in mind , their policy ' You Break It ! You Own It "

WOW the break it you own it policy is a bit harsh No wonder it doesn't get much mention anywhere. I used to enjoy a thrash about but with those prices and conditions I won't even bother to go and enquire. Cheers Roo you saved me a journey

The go karts just were'nt fast enough for me. I'm obviously a predijious talent and need to take it to the next level.

sounds like the jet ski's , 1000 baht to rent and then 50,000 baht to avoid being stabbed after you return it.

I think that might end up in carnage.

good point. i was inquiring about getting my own Go Go kart i reckon it would cost me about 20 k. i ask the owners if it was possible if i had my own kart to rent the track out. she ssaid yes 300 baht.

they used to have really fast 125 cc's they then i went down there and they told me that they were not avaiable and being fixed. then i went 6 months later they said the same thing.

i am sorry my i only like speed and if they have a tar mak but no super fast car that u have to be push started to get the engine ticking over then i cannie be bothered. i would rarther go to the internation race track in patong phuket.

Back home the local stock car stadium used to run a destruction derby a couple of times a year. You bought an old banger. Kicked out the windows. Welded up the doors and put the petrol tank where the back seat used to be, pop on a full face helmet and that was you ready for the carnage.

The winner of the race was the last car moving.No rules to abide by, anything went It used to make for a very entertaining Sunday afternoon I can tell you. They even had a special where you had to be towing a caravan

I'm surprised it hasn't taken off here. very cheap to race and a dam_n good laugh to boot.
