Gokarting In Melbourne. Wheres The Best Place To Go?

[Mohsen]

as the title says, does anyone know of any good, and i mean real good gokart tracks in melbourne where we can hire them for a bit and stuff..

getting sick of topkarts crappy circuit. its too easy but good fun in the wet.. you can get some decent sideways action

thanks

[alwaysdreaming]

hey mate LeMans gokarts in dandenong is awsome its got two tracks and if your fast enough you get the faster karts .

Ace karts in sunshine

[Mohsen]

is the track challenging at least?

i lapped everyone about 3 times last time i went in epping

[Evil]

+1 for ace karts... big track and decent karts...

mate u want a challenge go to cafe Go in morrabin alot of people complain about it being to small but its one of the most challenging tracks i have gone to and i have been carting for about 6 years now its challenging because the surface is slippery very hard to get a good time on the track and its nothing to do with speed pure driving skill.

IMO Ace is average, by the time the karts start going, corner time. *sigh*

[AGE]

The indoor one @ Port Melbourne is good, and the Moorabbin one is almost as good too.

I liked the Sunshine go-karts, and that would be fun in the wet. And I'm off to the Dandy south go-karts this weekend.

So with that my rating is...

(1)Sunshine

(2)Port Melbourne

(3)Moorabbin

Anybody know if the public can ever get on the big outdoor cart track in Port Melbourne beside the westgate bridge? I know they have proper race meets there etc but I thought they might do some days for the public?

Ace Karts is not too bad,

But my choice would be Silhouette on the Hume in Camblefield (I think that's where it is) Great track and if you have your own kart it's only $30 for as long as you like

Yeah but when you do get yur gold card your the only one aloud on the track, whats the point if you cant race your mates for bragging rights grrrr

[iseekool]

Silhouette are the fastest IMO. Facilities are a little low rent, no fancy stuff like Ace Karts - But if you are just after quality go kart action - I highly recommend this place.

Its in the northern subs. on the Hume Hwy - just past the Ford factory.

Ive only been to these three.

1. Le Mans Dandy. Mad track lots of twists, good bends, you get the fast carts.

2. Ace Karts Sunshine. ok.. similar to Le Mans...as in main straight, all the bends on the right side, then big sweeper into main straigh. fun when wet.

1051. Karts in Shunshine Fun city. BOG MANG, wouldnt even spit on the track. Fun for kids but.

Ace karts track is ok if you get the supercarts, as they call them. I call a superkart the 250cc one's, but they call them 6.5HP which just out-pips my Honda lawnmower. Anyway, the only issue I have with them is they kick you off and ban you if they think you caused an accident. They are the true kart nazi's.

Nah you can't get out there Dave unless your a member of the club or get invited by a member. Having said that, I've driven it

[Mohsen]

yeah i got spun out and got lapped twice so when i got back on the track i wrung the karts neck trying to keep up to everyone.

out of nowhere the operator runs on the track. i slamm the breaks and swerve into the tyre barricades

he yells at me and says watch were your going!

i get out of the kart take me helmet off and unleash my large aray of insults at him.

WHO THE f**k runs onto the track like that and tells me its my fault?

part of the reason why i wont go there anymore

[beNiz34]

Just go Ace Karts in sunshine the owner owns a r33 gtr lol discounts...

[Mohsen]

lemans looks great.

ill look ace karts up now.

would he accept bribes?(eg: giving everyone a slower kart then mine)

[BeEnAr]

the other plus at Silhouette is it's open till 10pm and you can race under lights. I don't know what their rental karts are like though as we take our own, but the track is a lot of fun and you can get some real speed up on the straight! Plus you don't get brethalised like you do at Ace Karts. Went there once and had only had a can and tehy said I was drunk and not allowed to drive, I argued the fact and he said we will give you the bretho, I passed at .00 so suffer in his jox! HAHAHA!!
