Not a bad track, real fast. I'm consistent, I'm gonna try and dip into the 28 second range. The track is bumpy, a bit slick depending on how hard you're pushing. Overall so far I give it a 3.5/5 due to the price factor.

I might be the only person who likes bumpy and slick, because it gives you spots where you can surprise someone who doesn't memorize a track as fast.

Is the layout good? I've been karting where the corners just seem to be there, with no flow or any sort of decent combination that gives the track any sort of enjoyment.

The layout isn't too awful, it's right. There's a few spots where it just doesn't flow unless you're threshold braking and coming in at the right speed. This is speaking from first experience though.

The one in Cinci? I haven't been there yet but my Brother in Law takes my nephews.

I'm about 2 1/2 rom there too. I don't mind the dive though. Any clue if it's bigger?

I'm a Cincinnatian as well.

I can prove this by eating Cincinnati chili.

It is much bigger. I've done a preview event there already. I also know the owner

How much bigger? I honestly don't mind the drive. I usually get a bunch of friends to go.

Makes no sense why it gets a bad wrap, stuff's delicious.

I'll have to watch for that. I checked out some of the videos and pictures. Looks good. Looks like a lot of oppo to be had until the rubber is laid down.

I can understand, though. I moved here when I was 8, and I thought it was an atrocity unto man at first. It grew on me.
My problem is that I'm on what many consider to be the wrong side of the chain competition; Gold Star.

I'm from what's technically considered a suburb of Dayton so I really have no excuse, but I've been eating the stuff since I was a baby and I love it. My Dad grew up just over the river so I'm sure the love came from my Grandma. Dogs and Spaghetti both. Either Chain is fine with me.
