Hey Everyone,

In light of TEAM SGR winning the Best Karting Performance at Drift Mania - Battle of the Car Clubs this past weekend, we'd like to make a portion of this Saturday's SGR Driving event a karting meet and invite everybody in the SGR community to come out and race! It'd be a great opportunity to get everybody together for some good old fashioned fun and battle it out on the racetrack for a great price. Join us in the VIP lounge for lunch afterwards!

We will be running up to 3 separate groups for the sessions, thus the clinic participants will be driving in a different group than the karting meet participants. The karting meet will run from 10:30am to 1:30pm at Grand Prix Kartways and will include 3 sessions at a cost of $50 for SGR Members, $60 for non SGR members. At the regular price of $25/session, this is a great deal that we're very excited to offer to everyone

Description
The "Ladies Only" clinic caters to our needs in a fun and pressure free atmosphere. No guys...just driving. Improve your driving confidence and your speed along the way. Topics of the clinic include crash avoidance, cornering techniques, kart control, passing techniques and the importance of proper vision. Each clinic will include classroom instruction, track walks and on-track evaluation with personal observance of each driver. Our goal is to make you faster by increasing your skills and your confidence. The specific topics and techniques learned will depend on the skill level of the participants, hence, please don't feel that this is a beginner or advanced clinic ONLY. With a small group of participants, we have free reign of what we want to learn in this clinic.

Venue
Grand Prix Kartways provides the highest quality state-of-the-art electric go-karts for its racers. Not only are these race team stylized go-karts fast, they are safe, and environmentally friendly with no noxious fumes. Two types of Go-Karts will be used, both of which will be electrically charged. No fossil fuels will be required to power the karts, keeping the facilities clean, pollution free, and GPK environmentally responsible. For more info on their facility, check out http://www.gpkartways.com

Believe me, I would definitely do the karting with you guys (I had sooooooo much fun at Battle of the Car Clubs) but I'm moving stuff in our house that weekend AND I have to go check out a horse barn at 1:00.
I'm going to be all over the place!

We deffinately should have gotten a vid of it. I was trying not to scream in pain and I was successfull. lol Till this day I still don't understand what I hit my leg on.

I gotta see what Derek says before I say we'll be coming for sure. lol Usually I just tell him what he's doing but this time I'll ask. lol

Well it was an amazing karting session as usual.
It has been really awesome to watch our two youngest members Brooke and Katie get faster and faster with each session.

Thank you everyone for coming and to to all the GPK staff for getting all the karts ready for us. That last fun race was a lot of fun even if the seat kept sliding back and forth on me :)

Rachelle's idea to go to COra's afterwards was perfect...I think we should og there after every clinic from now on.

It was also hilarious to see Colin out in the karts with Shaun and Katie cheering him on. Or were they just laughing at him? lolMy kart had some funky steering issues and wasn't responsive to my steering inputs. Damn you Derek!! *shakes fist*

Cora's was awesome, went home right after and took a long cat nap. I'm SO trying that strawberry cream panini next time for dessert!!
