Yas Marina Circuit Karting

Yas Marina Circuit Karting





Group Reflection

For a great leisure activity, our group recommends trying out the Go Kart Racing Circuit at Yas Island.  For the uninformed, kart racing is an activity that involves the racing of small race cars on a track.  Each driver tries to make the best time around the track, and at the end of the race the best time around the track is declared the winner. We decided on kart racing because after we had all discussed different leisure activities to be found here in the UAE, kart racing was one activity that one of our group members had never tried.  So, instead of all of us doing something that we had already done before we thought it would be good for us to go and do something that was new for one of our group members.  We also decided that kart racing would be an excellent activity because it was an activity that required skill and focus and even though it is a group activity, it still requires skill as an individual in competing against the other members of the group.  One of the best things about the track at Yas Island was the staff.  They helped us become familiar with the karts and they were very supportive of our filming at their track and above all, they were very welcoming to us. The Yas Island track also keeps the best time of the day, so if you are really competitive you can try to beat the time. Here in the UAE almost all of us drive daily on the regular roads, but it is entirely different when you are driving a very small go-kart at very rapid speeds.  In our opinion, kart racing is a really fun activity that is good for almost anyone.  We had a great time, and we would definitely return to the kart track at Yas Island.
