Hi,
I just wanted to say a big thank you for the arrangements and organisation on Friday night. The Foxy Fiesta definitely exceeded our expectations and we will be recommending you to our fellow hens who fancy giving Barcelona a go in the near future!

Indoor Go Karting
 |
Your group will be picked up outside your hotel by your Henorita guide, and taken by coach or minibus to the indoor gokarting track 20 minutes outside Barcelona.
The track is an amazing feat in track design. Although the purpose-built building is fairly small, the designers have managed to cram in a full 500m track. This includes a starting grid, a long full-pelt uphill section, a flyover bridge section, and numerous hairpins and chicanes. Not only this, but there's still room for an F1 themed spacious bar and restaurant area, elevated so you can see most of the track action down below. |
Once there, you can relax at the bar whilst your guide sorts out the insurance forms and race times. You'll need to think of your racing nickname, as this name comes up on the electronic scoreboard once you start racing. Then after a safety briefing, changing into full racing overalls, shower cap (don't ask!) and helmet, and storing your valuables in a secure locker in the changing rooms, it's race time!
You file out of the pits area in your 270 cc kart, then you have 10 minutes of racing to beat your friends round the track and get that all elusive fastest track time - the Henorita record currently stands at 40.57 seconds. After a break of 10 minutes to rest your arms after all that hard cornering and rehydrate, you're back on again for 10 minutes. And again after that, if you opt for 3 time trials. |
 |
At the end, the detailed timesheet printout will show the winner, and then it's presentation time on the podium with a bottle of cava bubbly to shower everybody with. Also a great photo opportunity once everybody is on the podium. Then after a post race analysis it's back to Barcelona for some well earned beers out on the town.
For insurance purposes, it's obligatory to bring your passports, and they won't let you race with sandals
If you are looking to combine your hen weekend with your partners stag weekend, why not hold it in a castle?!

Henorita's Hint
Mornings are a very bad idea for booking this activity. After getting in to your hotel room in the early hours, the last thing you want to do is go karting after only 3 or 4 hours of sleep. By racing in the afternoon, you'll appreciate the racing experience so much more with a few more hours sleep and recovery under your belt.
