Just in case people were wondering they use the top half of the hill climb and circle back making more a traditional kart track with a brilliant down hill braking area.

Karts are a single 270cc engine but are plenty fast enough and better than the others I have been to (haven't been to the other wanneroo kart track).

Car Racing Tracks are for Cars (unless it is a superkart...... or a truck)

Reckon they would be good on Jack's Hill. The short track on the main track is just to fast for them. Only need to brake for the hairpin and just takes all the skill out of it. A few braking zones show up the ones that can drive over the ones that got the lucky dip best cart.

I just went last night for the short-track "Maxi Grand Prix" (4x 5 laps) for a mate's b.day (10 in our group, and about another 10 from another i.e. 20 all on track). Had an absolute blast :D

Def agree that the only proper braking point is for the hair pin (where I did a fair bit of passing :p). The hill climb track looks more technically fun and challenging to drive, but being significantly narrower than Barb's (and seeing how it's like to pass on Barb's 12m wide track in karts), I'd imagine passing would be more difficult.

Kato 27-04-2009 01:45 PM

Super keen!

This dude comes to Collie too, and you get to race on the motorplex with them.
