Pics of F1 Boston, not Evo related, but fun
I went to F1 Boston yesterday with my girlfriend for the first time and let me tell you, it was allot of fun.
(for those that don't know F1 Boston is race-class go karts)
To scale it feels like you are racing a car at 80 - 90MPH, even though they only go 50 - 60MPH. Average speeds are between 40 - 45MPH with crazy corners.
On the straight aways they get up to about 55MPH.
You have to be 18 or older before 8:00 PM and after 8PM you have to be 21 or older because they open the bars,
so don't think you will be racing a bunch a teenagers
The pics
Heres a link to there websit.

OH, YEAH its allot of fun. I am really considering buying one of these karts. Its a toss up between a new Honda CBR1000 or one of these things.
Theres also an out door track in Bridgewater, MA that hold a bunch or races.
Allot of guys down at the track were really into it and I couldn't understand why until I drove one myself.
It is so addictive and a cheap way to get that race thrill with out worrying about crashing a $35,000 car.
And it really feels like you are going like 80mph with them.
I have seen races on ESPN and thought, why do they consider this a sport,
Now I know why!
Here is a link to Bridgewater events and track info. They even have Karts for sale.

I went there a couple of years ago, and it was exhilirating! Even though the race is short, you're wearing a helmet and driving suit, and you get a good workout from operating the car and experiencing some decent G-forces in the turns.
