Was there Friday night, first time I've been to the new place in bridge of don. Bit disappointed to be honest, the track is really narrow, just enough room to get 2 karts side by side. So overtaking is a pain, you've basically got to muscle the other guy over to get past and then hope the marshals dont give you a warning for hitting the other kart. Still a good laugh though.

I have been to there old place in dyce a few times and if their new place is even narrower it must be a nightmare.
I remeber being there with the work ... god knows how many years ago now but i got black flagged for overtaking somebody !!
The telling off went something like this "your not here to race just to have a bit of fun"

I think it's absolute pish to be honest, just as you guys say, too narrow and little hitler "marshalls" that moan at you for racing! I thought it was a waste of money, wouldn't rush to go back, but that's because I've been organising a mates day out to Boyndie every year for the past 4/5 and know what it SHOULD be like... chalk and cheese!

Bit of a dear hole, and cheecky how they hide away the sh*t wee karts you get given and show of the new ones. Although I liked the track and pleanty of passing places, went for practice there with one of the nurses who is a former scottish karting champion, she'll show you where to overtake!

The £37 was for the 50 lap race. It was 5 min practice/qualifying and then the 50 lap race. Think it was roughly an hour including the 5 min brief.
