Sounds like Dana's bf doesn't know how to race go karts in the rain. No ones problem but his own for being inexperienced and not knowing how to handle track conditions. Don't blame someone else for the lack of skill of your bf.
Myself, my boyfriend and other participants were saying that we were surprised about the huge puddles of water on the straightway. We thought maybe they would have blown some of the puddles out with a leaf blower or something, which works bc we do it at home when it rains. My suggestion would be to put a tarp, not over the entire track, which would be unrealistic. I would think to only cover the actual track part; come up with some solution to put something on it, to keep dry.
There are only 3 dates to choose from. So, if those 3 dates dont work for you, you lose your money. I think since we paid for the race already, there should be no expiration date on the rain check, if it was canceled
My husband and I both LOVED this and will be back. Highly recommend the race with a professional beforehand even if you've driven before.
The stock car races that Sunday were canceled due to poor track conditons and safety of the drivers, so they were aware of the poor track conditons on the track their stock cars use and canceled them, which i understand bc they ride high speed.
10-8-17, we get to the track, no rain. It did rain alot during the middle of the night. The track had huge puddles in one area on the straight away. The drivers had a 30 minute practice and qualifying race. During practice race, alot of the karts skidded, spun out, ran off the road and hit into the tires, which were set up at specific areas, which led the employees to move the tires further out to make more room.
Furthermore, the safety of the participants should be a priority, since the age starts at 16.
Last weekend was our 3rd yr participating in the 3 hr go karts. The past 2 times were a blast and was a very fun experience, everyone should experience the go kart racing! I am sorry to say this, the 10-8-17 date was not good at all. I followed the weather forcast all week, it showed heavy rain for that Sunday. Per their website, the go kart racing is rain or shine, no refunds, have to show no matter the weather conditon and it would be up to them if there is a rain delay or if the race gets canceled and you have a year to use it
This was an awesome experience I have wanted to do this ride along since I was 5yrs old. The race was the best thing ever, a thrill of a life time, for someone who is 69 1/2
He was in such pain. Two medics onsite came to assist him and Gregg told them he thought his arm was broken and his head and neck hurt, which he thought is due to a concussion. He got up and tried to assess his own injuries, alone. He was in mad and in pain and didnt want everyone touching him. I took him to the trauma center in PA for xrays and ctscan. It was hard for me to see him in such pain, to see the car flipping over on top of him and he was in shock and had trouble processing what just happened. Before we left to the ER, a man who said he ran the race approached us. I was still very angry at what happened, i explained to him what happened and that i was disappointed. He told me if we thought the track conditons were life threatening, we could have received a refund, that was a lie. Read their refund policy. I later asked for a refund bc I was extremely upset this took place and I was denied a refund bc the way i handled myself. Who wouldn't be upset, scared and very mad, when they see their boyfriend in extreme pain. This was a birthday gift. He was injured one hour into the race.
Never thought it would have been so much fun. The entire staff was outstanding in caring for safety, very attentive to our needs, knowledgeable in their craft. I recommend the 6 laps. Didn't want it to end and will book again. My wife wants to experience the excitement as well. Track and grounds were very clean and well kept. If you like to drive fast, this is for you.
Summary, this go kart race can be amazing expirence, be safe if you have to do it in the rain.
There were alot of spin outs during the race, due to the slippery track conditions, which was uncommon from our 2 prior experiences when there was no rain. There was a specific turn where i can tell my boyfriend was unsteady and could not keep his go kart straight and was a little wobly. I asked him about it, he said its a little slippery there and slightly wet. In that same corner, 2 karts were racing, one kart spun out, my boyfriend coming around the corner about 40 miles speed and he could not turn or stop the go kart in time and ran hard into this guys kart and my boyfriend flipped his kart, which landed on.
He was rolling back and forth in pain, not speaking at first.
