Class Description & Kart Comparison

With our new Sodi 9bhp fleet now ready for the track we will have 3 classes to choose from for any type of Adult Competition Event.

Our ...
... LMP1 class is our fastest fleet of new 9bhp Sodi karts with lap times as quick as 55 seconds around our Super Track. For those of you more use to the Uptown track this kart can run mid 26 second lap times all day long. Our Stratos karts are also 9hp but are slightly more difficult to drive. They will give the driver a workout every time they are driven. Originally classified as our LMP1 class they are now our LMP2 class with lap times around 56 seconds on our Super Track. Finally our standard fleet of Sodi karts in which everyone will have driven already if they have raced before is classified as our GT1 class. They are capable of breaking into the 57 second range with the right driver behind the wheel.

We look at it like this!! If you are wanting to race our new Sodi 9hp karts get yourself through one of our 2 hour mandatory training schools and register right away. This way you can go out for the overall win on any Adult Competition event. If you want a workout then go for our harder to drive Stratos karts and see if you can keep up with the LMP1 teams. If however you are up for a real challenge then we say bring your best possible drivers and drive in the GT1 class and see how many teams you can beat in the LMP1 or LMP2 class. For fun or sheer competition these ALMS Endurance events are for everyone so come along and sign up to try on. Teams must consist of 2 drivers or more.
