Your group will be picked up outside your hotel by your
Senor Stag guide, and taken by coach or minibus to the indoor go-karting
track outside Madrid.
The track is one of the finest you’ll find anywhere, an amazing feat
of design, with a full 500m track. The cars can reach 70 kmph and have
petrol engines. |
 |
The track includes a starting grid, a long full-throttle
section, and numerous hairpins and chicanes. From the upstairs bar you
can relax while your guide sorts out the insurance forms and race times.
You’ll need to think of your racing nickname, as this name comes
up on the electronic scoreboard once you start racing. Then after a safety
briefing, changing into full racing overalls and helmet, and storing your
valuables in a secure locker, it´s race time! |
 |
You file out of the pits area in your 270 cc kart, and you
have 10 minutes of racing to beat your mates round the track and go all-out
for the fastest track time. (The Senor Stag record currently stands at
38.54 seconds). After a break of 10 minutes to rest your arms and re-hydrate
after all that hard cornering, you´re back on again for 10 minutes.
At the end, the detailed timesheet printout will show the winner, and then
it’s time for a well deserved beer or two back in town.

For insurance purposes, it´s obligatory to bring your
passports, and they won’t let you race with sandals. Also, please
do not turn up drunk as you will not be allowed to race - this is an activity
that requires quick responses and good judgement. |
