Who here holidays in Bali?

Now, if you were on holidays in Bali & had the opportunity to run timed laps in proper Karts (current model Arrow racing chassis') on a well maintained Kart track would you be interested?

What if i said that the lap times would be displayed live (Transponder system)?

What if i said it would happen under lights after dark in the dry season (cooler)?

What if I said there would be 10 x restricted 100cc (Kids) & 10 x unrestricted 100cc J race karts - 18hp 2 stroke (Adults)?

What if 15 minute sessions were only $25 for the j motored karts?

Helmet, race suit & neck brace all supplied.

Business owned & run by Aussies (on site).

Track length approx 1km - main straight 250 metres

Comments & thoughts appreciated please guys (Poll is multiple choice too)

FYI: The Unrestricted karts are capable of 150 kph, the restricted karts will top out at 70 kph.

All sounds great but the only problem I can see is getting fuktards behind the wheel of a cart at 150kph. It would only take one to fuck it for everyone. Add that to the fact that if the two seaters are to entice a dad / son scenario that makes the above problem worse, even if it's putting around with the restricted.
/ level headed father of two input.

I hear you gents, it won't be a free for all - If your visibly impaired you won't get into a kart.

restricted run with other restricted karts & two seaters.

Unrestricted run alone.

The set up will be similar to the karts in Pattaya.

Shitty vid of Pattaya but you get the idea:

(Embedding refuses to work so here the youtube link)

Pattaya would be much better, I'll be living a couple of hours away Is that the track on the main drag down past Kata with the paint balling etc in the same complex?

Love the idea.
As mentioned by others, my biggest concern would be the same as setting up right here in bogan ville..
Lots of em travel to Bali, the insurance piece would scare me as an owner/operator of this establiment.. Not only the fuxktard factor, but also the ill-equipped insigiduals to handle such power to weight ratio..

Having said all that rubbish.
Boots packed!!!!

Bali...

Public Liability Insurance...

Do those words go together? :P

I reckon you'd get a lot of people though if the location is good.
