DONATIONS / FEES / RENTAL KARTS:
Arrive-and-drive karts may be rented. Rental donation is bare-bones, covering gas and parts wear only! Galletta's operates on a nominal "donation fees to keep the track ready and karts running. Anything you can donate to the track and karts helps. We also allow drivers to race with us provided they agree to sign a waiver, and the land owner allows recreational karts to run under the New York Recreational Use Statute.
We run 1-wheel-drive gas flathead motors with some racing enhancements all done on site.
Bring your own kart:
- $5 donation to enter your own kart (donation to Matt for his track work, donation waived if you bring multiple racers to rent). If Matt or Wes works on YOUR owned kart, please give him MORE than this $5 bare bones tip. It's worth it, as you will NOT find another karting division ANYWHERE where the top driver and mechanic will help you have a kart capable of beating them on any given race day for so little.We LOVE racing, and we sacrifice our own karts by helping our friends, relatives and total strangers to compete against us!
Galletta's Team Kart for Regular Event (40-70 laps):
We have over 15 arrive-and-drive karts on-site, all competitive feature winners and waiting for drivers to pilot them.
- Regular Driver / Returning Veteran: $20
- Newbie Driver / Rookie Driver: $25
Ask Matt about a full-year membership rental, or rent a kart with your own motor/drive system, which would be considerably less than weekly AND have that kart reserved for you every week.
Galletta's Team Kart for Regular Event (200 laps + qualifiers):
Klassic rental will be more. Contact Matt, as deals can be made, depending on how many laps you run and if you don't break the karts!
We can help you build your own Galletta's-style kart for only a few hundred dollars. From time to time, some drivers sell their Galletta's-style karts for $200-300 as well. You will NOT be able to spend that little on a competitive, feature-winning kart in any other karting division around. Period.
Spectators:
- Spectators are free to watch! (But stay safely away from the track!)
- Pose with a kart and be counted in our points race via 1 lap? Free! Just ask!
The above countdown is usually updated as soon as news breaks (rain-dates, postponements, reschedules, etc.), so pay attention to this sidebar.
If you have not raced with us before, you are welcome to join! We have many arrive-and-drive karts available, and you will not race with a more talented karting group, empirically proven on this website (and erased from the local pay track website because of how good of a show we put on for bottom dollar)! Even if just a lap to earn points, or race in a newbie qualifier... give it a shot. 99% of the time, people love it! 2014 will now have membership, which will help regular drivers race the full season. Contact us.
Sunday, August 5th, 2018 - In an unfortunate twist, most of our regular drivers could not make it, but 1st year driver Steve Sixberry brought two rookies who look to be getting accustomed to the racing and hopefully will come back often. Due to only three visiting drivers, we rescheduled to a "Make Up Points / Rookie Race" -- although you can't keep Matt Stevens off the track and races with no points or feature wins at stake. Chris Stevens took the opportunity to try and get a wide variety of different shots, not just the tower angle which everyone who knows us is accustomed to. Enjoy!
15-Lap Makeup Race #1 - START:
1. ® Steve Sixberry (Team Galletta’s Greenhouse #9)
2. ® Chris Smith (Team Galletta’s Greenhouse #12j)
3. ® Mark Vincent (Team Galletta’s Greenhouse #7)
4. * Matt Stevens (Team Galletta’s Greenhouse/Chrusher.com/OswegoSushi.com #74)
* = Matt is just racing for fun/post-Klassic/non-regular bonus points.
<-This site used Photobucket from 2006-2018 for our pictures. That changed when they decided to extort users top-dollar to use their own photos on their own website. I could see a light watermark, or small, yet reasonable fee to go ad-free... but this is ridiculous. Bye, Photobucket.
