For
people thinking of getting into racing karts we run a couple of formal
Come 'n' Try Days each year. This gives you the opportunity to experience
karting before committing to the purchase of expensive equipment.
Come
'n' Try Days are run under strict controls to ensure your experience is
as safe and enjoyable as possible. They are run on various weekends throughout the year. However, Come
'n' Try sessions can be held at other pre-arranged times throughout
the season, but must be booked in advance.
Participation
is strictly by pre-booking only, so if you would like to find out more
about it or would like to book in, please contact either our President
or Secretary. Contact details
Please
check the Racing Calendar for Come 'n' Try
Dates for the current season.
The
cost is $30 per person.
If you become a Member of our Club, this amount will be discounted off
your Membership Fee. (Only up to the value of the current Membership
Fee)
A BBQ and drinks will normally be available from the Race Office on
Come
'n' Try Days.
