Nope, even though the 5th gen Camaro's have been recalled, my Holden hasn't. I do have a slightly different key setup than the Camaro, granted.

Also, GM should now use the tag line "RECALL ALL THE THINGS!!"

I purposefully avoid that mess at all costs whenever possible Also, unless they have a huge line of people waiting, which would be pretty unusual, you can typically get racing within the first 10 mins of walking in. Races last 10 mins or so, therefore even if we did two sessions, the most time I've ever been there has been less than an hour.
I get off at 7-7:15ish then I'll have to get wherever we want to eat, and Thursday night I've got things to do once i get home as well. I just don't see the karting working into my night.

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and just bought my first Z a week ago - a 2014 Gun Metallic base manual. Just wanted to stop by and say hello since my account has finally been activated! Hopefully will see you guys around soon!

Ha, no. There's no need for a racing suit for karting, just a helmet. They have a new license system there to track drivers. I remember getting one last time I went. I think it cost $50, but you get 3 sessions' credit so it just kinda forces you to buy the package deal if you want to drive. The credits stay on your account though so if you buy 3 on Thursday and only use 1, you can use the other 2 later.

Detroit is indeed very sketchy. If you stay near the Greektown casino downtown you're generally safe, but I never liked walking around without a few people walking with me.

Yeah we literally stayed right across the road from GM headquarters at the Courtyard Mariot. Greektown Casino was just to the our northwest a few blocks. Still, we went to some shady places to eat. Slow's BBQ over on Michigan Ave was awesome but while we were waiting for a table outside people kept asking us for money. Glad we had a good sized group

Side note: Driving the speed limit in our rental car (base model Versa), I was able to almost get airborne crossing an intersection on Michigan Ave due to how rutty it was crossing a different street o.O
