I know you guys are used to this kind of thing, but for Kentucky, this is news:

The place is about 400 yards from my office.

Re: New indoor kart track - in Kentucky??
Looks like I've got a new place to spend money. That's on the Lexington side, well out of town proper. Might be less than an hour from my front door. It's about time. Lunch hour? "Uh, I've got to go see (inaudible) to discuss the (inaudible) project. Looks like I'll be out all afternoon. Oh, and please take messages, I, er, we don't want to be, um, interrupted."

Harsha, this one is in Louisville, not far from I-64 & Blankenbaker Parkway. And yes, the first lunch laps are in the books. First time I've driven a Kart. LOL - my fastest lap was my second. The harder I tried, the slower I went. How familiar does THAT sound?

No I realize it's in L'ville, but it's way on the Lexington side of L'ville (yeah I know you guys don't think of it that way, much less realize that there is actually another city further east in KY. If you get on I-64 and go east, believe it or not, you don't fall off the edge of the earth. You run into Lex before you get to Appalachia and then actually fall off the face of the earth.) I was looking on the bright side as to how I will not have to fight local Lville downtown traffic to get to it.
So, the first lunchtime laps are in? Awesome! Yes, sadly, the laws of racing don't get broken no matter the vehicle.
I'll have to take a really LONG lunch break and come run laps with you.

Traffic, yeah it was traffic, bumper to bumper, that's what is was...
Harsha, Louisville maps only show darkness east of Keeneland.
