Go Kart @ Sunway Extreme park Ipoh

Jimmy told me there is a new go kart circuit at Sunway Extreme park Ipoh opened recently.
This is the only new go kart in Ipoh since the previous go kart already close down.
So Jimmy and me decided to go there for a spin; I'm a novice in go kart as I only race few times in go kart in Ipoh and once at Shah Alam.
I met Jimmy and Abbie at the circuit on Saturday 3.30pm and the other folks didn't turn up yet.
The sky turn dark and it going to rain soon; we didn't wanted to waste much time waiting so we decided to go for a 6 laps race.
This is the first time I kart on concrete track as normally the track is tarmac.
We only enjoy 3 laps of grip race and the remaining race either a lot of understeer and oversteer action since the rain start to pour down.
Overall the circuit is very twisting with combination of s-turn and 1 hairpin; the lack is a long straight. The track is quite bumpy on certain part of the track too.
The go kart fee is RM20 for 6 laps.

This is the entrance of the track There are about 10 new go karts as it is open 1 month ago only.
