Default Cars on the go-kart course

My local MINI dealer rented a go-kart track and took 6 '07 MINI's (both S and non-S) out and let people drive them all day. MAN was that fun. This is a pic of me driving with a dealer employee in the pass seat. We had as many as 6 MINI's on the track at a time (spaced out of course). AWESOME TIME!!!

according to the trip-o-meter in the Mini, it's about 9/10s of a mile. we got to do 2 laps, then had to pull off and let the next person go out.

The local autocross club does that ----. I wish I had a car that ran decent enough to go and try it out.
