Go Kart Racing In Singapore
-
Any place where we can rent go karts? By renting, i mean those by hour kind of renting, where they provide tracks etc for people to rent and race. Etc, kind of like renting a kayak at east coast.
What are the costs like too? -
Road safety park at ECP
-
i'm tempted to think that was a silly joke ;P
-
You can go Taman jurong ... just beside jurong superbowl ... they rent go karts on hourly rates ...
-
kartworld. taman jurong. they rent on 10 minute blocks. dun expect it to be dirt cheap, as u are renting a whole go kart, petrol, track usage, helmet, and also covering the cost of any potential damage all from the amount u pay. $30 to $40 for 10 mins, depend on kart type.Originally posted by nick34:You can go Taman jurong ... just beside jurong superbowl ... they rent go karts on hourly rates ... -
woah, thats damn expensive
-
its not damn expensive. look at what u're getting for $40... motor racing doesn't come cheaper than this.Originally posted by mercur|al:woah, thats damn expensive -
comparatively to kayaking...which goes for like 1 hour $10 dollars or so, go kart racing is indeed expensive

Comparatively to borrowing books from the library, kayaking is indeed expensive. Whats your point? U are paying for renting a go kart, not a kayak, so whats e relavance in the comparism?Originally posted by mercur|al:comparatively to kayaking...which goes for like 1 hour $10 dollars or so, go kart racing is indeed expensive
e kayak doesn't use any petrol, it doesn't go up to 70 80km/h, it doesn't need a circuit to run, its not a go kart. $40 is cheap. u want cheaper, go to malaysia. i just went yest. otherwise, remember, motor racing is never cheap in a real world sense. to race for $40 is cheap enuf. A good place to try in malaysia is Permas Jaya, about 20 mins from JB. directions, er, will need to ask some other forumnites here who directed me. -
I tried go karting for the first time back in June. Absolutely loved it! It was such an exhilarating experience that I rounded up a couple of Initial D-watching friends for another session back in Jurong.
No regrets for the money spent at all. In fact, I'm itching to get back into the go kart seat.
The sense of speed on the go kart, even though it doesn't look fast, definitely feels fast - much faster than anything I've felt on 4 wheels. But of course, I only drive a normal 1.6 l car, so I can't compare to what the turbo or VTEC guys experience. But to me, the sensation of being squished to the side of your seat when taking corners in a go kart is dangerously addictive.
All car forum guys should give go karting a try! -
