i've been there a couple of times, they got some pretty mean corners...and there's some nice seafood restaurants nearby as well that you can check out after a hard day's go-karting.

Been there a few yrs back, much better track that the 1 in Tun Aminah, now closed.

U mean U are organising a race there?

Is the KTV there still operating? Seen quite a few saucy gers reporting for work round abt 6-7pm.

Not me organising, but the track owner.

I think KTV is still operating. Never been into the lounge before.

Been there a few times. Its quite fun but not cheap. Still learning how to 'drift' but ended up almost overturning the go-kart... heard this place is opened by a Singaporean

you can drift a go-kart?! i had a 1080 spin once (judging from the marks i left behind) and a going full throttle into a tight turn but braked a teeny bit too late. i don't think karts are meant for drifting, you can lose the rear a little, but really, you lose time. just be careful, i had a colleague fracture a collar-bone plus major concussion etc when the kart flipped.

If you have enuff power on the rear wheels to break traction it's possible to do a power slide. The 80cc n even 125 cc dun have enuff power to break traction on the full slick tyres. A turbo charged kart can

A flend of mine was luckier, he flip the kart @ Permas and broke a few parts. Had to pay 4 damages

Interesting!

Anyone know how much do they charge for public?
I Can't find the pricing on their website.

[megane2]

For normal track day, it's open for half track or 0.9km, less than 1 min to complete.
Full track is 1.3km, which can take up to 2min to finish, which is opened during race.

RM$30 for 80cc 2-stroke or 160cc 4-stroke.
RM$40 for 100cc 2-stroke
RM$50 for 390cc 4-stroke
RM$70 for 125cc 2-stroke

Opening time, weekday 11am - 9pm, weekend 10am - 9pm. Each ride is 10min.

For power drifting, 390cc is enough.
