Thinking of going to Pole Position in Vegas with my kids for a couple hours this weekend for some fun. Feedback from you all would be appreciated, Thanks.

it's a ball. That's where we did the event at SEMA last year, a LOT of fun. Get in shape, hustling the carts around for 15-20 minutes at full speed wears you out.............

Go on a diet! since they dont have much power P/W ratio is huge, we were at one and this kid kept beating us, he could just pull out of every turn, I told him to put a 100 pound weight in his kart and we would kick his butt!

Hey Stuart -- I'll be in town for a party on Friday night. If I'm up for it (read: not hungover), I'll PM you Sat...

There are two tracks now Stuart. The one that is across from the Palms is bigger and faster, the one out in summerlin is smaller and more technical. Both are fun but if the kids want to play video games etc. the one by the Palms is better for that. If your on facebook, pole position has a page and a lot of times you can get coupons for the tracks there.

We went during the El Toro event with some guys from here, fat boys have NO Chance! Jody is right, next day everyone was compalining about mid section pain. Works muscles you did not know you had.

We did that hour and a half endurance race at Pole Position last year. I remember one of the guys went outside and puked afterwards. lol Stielow got lectured after launching his car off another.

They're fast and they're fun.

Was out there for the Corvette Convention this past May and tons of people out there for an afternoon of racing each other. I don't weight made that big of a difference; one lady (maybe 130lbs) who autocrosses and road races all over the nation was in the top 8 was still beaten by 2 guys, 1 of which was easily 200+. I weight about 225 and I was only .15 seconds from her best time until my last run which I over took that difference.

It was a true blast and the friends and wife all talked about how we wished we had one in Austin, TX again.
