Don't worry someone is makin a profit -

I got kicked out, when it was owned by the other guy, by some pimple faced geek. He was standing on the track where you pull in to stop and I almost hit him because he stepped out in front of me. The manager actually had to come out because this kid went ballistic, at which point I decided he would have to lift me out of the go-cart, which was not going to happen.
My kids, and their friends who came with us, sent them letters saying they would never go there again because the teenager was cussing and screaming over nothing. I received a written appology and a free days pass in return. I sent both back with a courtious "no thank you, and, please, feel free to kiss my ass" and have refused to go there.

i used to work at all 4 fun and casual contact did occur, but blatent bumping was ridiculous. Too much of a good thing is bad for the place. I mean, do you want to come back and fix the track after you sent your buddy into the guard rail...enough is enough guys. It's the go karts guys job to take care of the rails just as you do your job everyday. Cut the go kart wranglers some slack.

I'ld imagine part of it is Safety reasons as well. It isn't nascar, and I doubt the person next to you actually wants someone to USE the life insurance policy they have on them.
