R4L Tampa Go Kart Meet 7/25/08
Well since gas is getting a bit expensive for a drive I figured we still needed to get together and do some racing. So I have done a little bit of research and found this place http://www.tampabaygp.com/ . It looks to be a good time and is reasonably priced. www.rotary4life.com would like to invite you to join the fun

My buddy and I race there every other Thursday. Have been for the past 8 months. It's a nice track. They just recently changed the track up a bit for the better. The carts hit about 40 and most have good cornering abilities. Dont go during the mid day because the tires get too hot and the karts slide. Go late evening. If i'm off i'll be there
