I agree - this is something any car/racing enthusiast should try. Go-karts aren't just for kids. Honest-to-goodness karts (much less shifter karts) can be serious ways to get better and understand racing dynamics.

There's a kart place not too far from here that I've gone to a few times. If it's any consolation I too walked out of there my first time thinking I sucked royally despite a fair amount of experience behind the wheel. But at least I'm getting better and can turn pretty smooth/consistent laps now.
