Go Karting is a very fun date idea. I think the wrong thing was to make it a first date kind of thing. Assuming you didn't know each other beforehand, the first few dates should be the kind where you actually talk to each other to determine compatibility. Stay being awesome though. Think I might take my wife go Karting. Haven't done it in a while.

Yeah. Dates where something HAPPENS are in my experience an S tier idea. Walking around the park, playing a game, interacting in some way. All good things. Like I say, getting buzzed and playing ping pong and flirting was fuckin magic. But both of us being in our go karts with helmets on and 0 interaction and the stress of “wtf I am going way too fast what if I crash this thing I hate this so much” is a little bit less of an S tier idea. Definitely for a first date at least.
