Go Karts in Calgary that don't suck?

[amorak]

Where can I find Go-Karts in Calgary that don't suck?
I used to hit up grand prix indoor karting up in the NE (Barlow and 16th), but I hear they closed up a few years ago.

Is that sh*thole kartworld the only place an adult can have fun karting?

there's shakers, it's out the end of glenmore trail, not sure if the carts are any good, but there are some there..

^shakers is nicer then the one by chinook, but the go-karts still suck :thumbsdow

Calgary sucks for Go-karts. You need to take a drive out to Stratotech park near Edmonton.

Or go to Allen Berg Racing school in Race City and pay some good coin.

I went to one of their noob days, paid $15 or something for 7 laps in a Rotax 125cc. Two months later I bought one.

A few times a year they have daily events for non-members/non-karters to come by and try for $15. You'll never want to go back to slow karts again.

I don't think its feasible for a decent indoor track to operate in Calgary, its too expensive here.
