No one is awake yet here. So they charge $7 right? Is that per person/car?

My family had a great time, it was nice seeing what running around a track is like, I need a lot of practice! I thought it was very cool how everyone helps each other out with turning over trucks and offering to help. One guy even offered to charge my batts.

I told my sons they need to practice going around the backyard a lot more before they will be ready for the track.

It was great meeting you two guys, the truck was nice!

it was nice meeting you. make sure you watch your kids on the track. ive seen a couple of young'ins get nailed. one got knocked clean off her feet.
it takes a little practice to get use to the track.

I was more worried about one tumbling down the stairwell to the platform Big Grin My wife came close to getting nailed once.

I'm going to try to make it up there every Saturday.

It wasn't bad at all, about 40 minutes. That one road you take going through the town was a little difficult to manuever, it snakes around like crazy.

The new track may be a few minutes less time, I think.

I doubt I'll make it out there next Saturday, were having a big joint birthday party for both my kids, starts at 1 PM. Unless I can take off after its over Big Grin
