Hi Jan,

do you know a good indoor carting circuit somewhere north of Antwerpen?
I'm thinking about organizing a meeting with Dutch friends and want to
find something a bit more in their direction.

TIA

Hmmm... apart from the Indoor Karting on the Noorderlaan here (slightly
north of Antwerp and rubbish IMNSHO) and don't think there is a Karting
facility between here and the border. There's one near Mol, which is
slightly closer to Holland, but that's in the middle of nowhere and thus
hard to reach.

I can, however, heartily recommend JPR Belgium Indoor Karting in
Sint-Niklaas (20 mins from Liefkenshoektunnel via E17 direction Gent).

Those guys run a top notch organisation. The rentals are 200cc/7hp jobs that
can reach 70km/h+ and are all pretty much identical (most places you're
lucky to get one that steers straight). When we went there last May, the
starting lights didn't work, but the timing and race marshalling was very
good.

Not the cheapest around, but well worth it, IMO.

Jan.

Well, there's also one in downtown Tilburg, which is just north of the
Belgian border.

If time and other commitments allow, sure... keep me posted (jan "dot"
verschueren "at" pandora "dot" be).

I suck worse at driving karts than TPTCC, though... it's the setups, I
think. ;-)
