Lawrence July 4th Parade Pictures
We just keep getting bigger and better every year...
2005: (our first year of ownership), we only had
four Formula K's
in the parade, and there were no pictures taken
that year.
2006 (below)
2007 (below)
2008: Parade
picture was ruined! :(
2009 (below)
2010 - THIS YEAR'S PARADE ROWDYS shown below
|
 |
"THE HONEYMOONER"
May we present newlyweds Mr. and Mrs. Steve Beckham.
We all rejoiced in the union of Steve and his beautiful wife Marsha
by designing this gorgeous car
just for them.
 |
 |
|
You may remember, it
was owner Julie Gerard's parents, Jack and Sue Gerard who first took
the Tiki Taxi on her 'maiden voyage' in last year's parade. Sadly,
they were unable to attend this years' festivities, but they'll
be back in full swing next year, as the parade has become one of
their favorite events.
 |
"THE TIKI TAXI"
Shortly after a wild Luau and annual
pig roast, owner Tammy Beckham and
Senior WSFP and PRRC Shift Manager Tiffany Zupan left
the grass skirts behind to enjoy a relaxing cruise along the parade route.
. |
Ah, yes....'Soak Up the Sun at Post Road Recreation Center' - not bad advice!
Tiffany's one-year-old daughter, Lilly rode along for
most of the way. |
|
"HEARTBREAKER"
Senior PRRC Shift Managers Amber Lloyd and
Shantia Usher 'broke hearts' all up and down the
parade route this year in our NEW super-hot "HeartBreaker".
 |
"DANCIN' MACHINE"
Owner Julie Gerard and Master Mechanic Ted Ashley
rocked the crowd with 2K thumping watts of raw power, urging all the
children and adults alike to 'live it up and dance, dance, dance!!!'
 |
"THE PATRIOT"
PRRC Track Boss and Mechanic Richard 'the Kraken' Moit
took his son along for a fun spin down the parade route in our
beautiful Patriot car.
Last year, Tammy and
her Mom, Shiela Jaosky were the first to drive the Patriot.
|
|
 PRRC
and WSFP Senior Shift Manager Kristina Williams (left) easily left
everyone in the dust in our #1 Belgian. Driving in the parade for her
first time, was PRRC Senior Shift Manager Tashia Crenshaw (middle)!
She boogied on down the road in our #5 Fast Kart. WSFP Senior Track
Boss Shawn Cooper was more than happy to drive the awesome Belgian #2. |
|
Last year, our personal rail cart 'Bugsy' was driven by PRRC's most
valuable and much loved Master Mechanic, Ted Ashley.
This year, Senior Track Boss Will Moit took the wheel, while 'Henry
the Greeter' (the big skull guy) as always, insisted
on riding along, sporting his usual 'Haunted Lazer Tag' sign. (Henry
loves the scary stuff!) Henry is named 'the
Greeter' for his seasonal duty of hanging above the entrance door to
greet all PRRC visitors around Halloween time.
PRRC Kitchen Manager and Runner Ashley Green booked along in 9HP #22
Fast Kart. |
|
Our pretty white #3 Dale Earnhardt Formula K has been running in the
parade for the last four years. This year, he was pilotted by PRRC
Track Attendant Brody Lang, while PRRC Track Attendants DJ
Longenfelter and Jesse Jones took turns hoofing it and driving the #6
Valvoline car; another veteran of the parade. As for the wild looking
hippy guys on the bikes - well, they just kinda showed up with their
super-hot rides and asked if they could cruise along with us, so we
figured, what the heck...the more the merrier! They were lots of fun, too! |

POST ROAD RECREATION CENTER GO KARTS

Hotties' at the PRRC....

9HP "DEUCE COUPES"
|
 |
|
WOW. Are these cars a RIOT, or WHAT? Whether you're
driving or you're the passenger, it's just as fun either way when
you're swooping up and down the slick banks of our INDOOR
OVAL TRACK. These karts sport a powerful
9HP Honda engine, and believe me, it's plenty to keep you flying on
this addicting and extremely exciting car on our equally awesome track.
*NOTE: The 'DEUCE COUPES' run on the INDOOR OVAL SLICK
TRACK all year around, so everyone in your family can still have fun
rain or shine! PASSENGER CAN BE ANY SIZE!! Passenger under 45"
is FREE with paying adult. |
|
THE "FORMULA K" KARTS
|
 *2-SEATERS!
Passengers under 45" are FREE
with a paying adult! |
 |
Formula K 2000's for anyone over
54" tall! |
|
Our 27 brightly painted Formula K fleet of Go Karts
are stocked with a quick 5.5HP Honda engine, and are the perfect
performance match for our Outdoor STREET TRACK. Feel the wind in your
face as you glide around a turn!
Don't forget to bring the kids, because if they're
over 54" tall, they can drive one of these beautifully colored
karts. Kids under 54", but above 45" tall can drive a
shorter version of the single seaters. We call them 'Stingers' (shown
below), and they run along with our single & two seater Formula
K's on our outdoor Street Track!
*NOTE: Two-Seater 'DEUCE COUPES' run on the INDOOR
OVAL SLICK TRACK during bad weather, so everyone in your family can
still have fun rain or shine!

"STINGER" FORMULA K KARTS
Our 'STINGER KARTS' are for kids
45" to 54"!
We say let EVERYBODY RIDE! Check out these STINGER
KARTS for all the kids who were previously too short to drive
themselves! Well, they're not too short anymore*! The STINGERS run
outdoors only on the 1000' ft long STREET TRACK. **NOTE** On average,
children 6-10 years old should be over 45" tall, HOWEVER;
THIS DOES NOT ALWAYS MEAN THAT THEY CAN OPERATE A KART SAFELY,
or easily reach the gas and brake pedals. For the safety of
everyone, we recommend that these children RIDE WITH AN ADULT IN A
TWO-SEATER if you're not completely sure. Thanks in advance for your
cooperation and understanding! |
|
|
"FUNMAKER" FAST KARTS
 |
Low to the ground, these super-quick karts will make
your heart race as you hug tight to the turns and fly down the
straight-aways! This pumped up fleet sports a different gear ratio
and much larger rear tires, so these karts really move. You've got to
be either 16 years old or 5' tall to drive them! Also, because they
are an exposed rail kart, no sandals or open-toed shoes are allowed,
so - please - don't forget your sneakers! |
|
9HP BELGIAN RACING KARTS
|
|
For mature drivers only. Drivers
must be at least 18 with a valid DRIVER'S LICENSE.
Wanna show 'Mr. Smart Guy' at the office who's REALLY
the boss? Or maybe you want a bachelor party that won't get you in
trouble the next day?
Then, BY ALL MEANS, let us introduce you to our
absolutely righteous and most awesome Belgian Racing Karts! With an
ultra-light frame,
super smooth rack and pinion steeering and extra wide
wheelbase, no words can begin to describe the pure exhiliaration
you get from these Karts.
Whether you already race, or you've always wanted to,
experience the true thrill of European Kart racing...just drop by and
cut loose for a bit!
Sorry, kids...gotta be 18 to drive these babies. No
sandals allowed on these karts, and long hair must be restrained.
Helmet, neckbraces &
headsocks are provided, or you can bring in your own
helmet if you'd like.
