Andretti Karting allows RIMO karts on circle track-drift

Post by Rhoad Racing »

For those of you who have been to Andretti Karting and taking the Sprint Cars out on the circle track.... the driftability of them is straight up lame. They are slow, heavy and just not that fun.
So as of Tomorrow (Sept 20th) Andretti is allowing everyone to take the RIMO karts out on the oval track for some slide action. Let me assure you.... its a ton of fun, especially when you and three others are diving into the corner sideways all at the same time.
"Drift nights" are only on Weds and Sundays.... all day long. The cost remains the same as a road course race and/or Sprint car race; $20. And up to 4 karts are allowed on the circle track at a time. If there is a good response, Andretti will be hosting a small compitition with a cash purse and prizes.

If you guys are up for it.. let me know. I'll be Andretti tomorrow night. We'll go out and show 'em how the dMs rawk 9hp slide attacks :twisted:
I'll try to get some video up asap.
