having driven at Kingston and Archerfield all i can add is:
kingston: slow if heavy driver, hard to stall and few stopages during racing, karts had very stiff steering (hands v.sore afterwards), long track with lots of corners, would be good if all drivers are same size and skill.
archerfield: fast depite my weight, being 2-stroke a stall kills the engine, no stoppages but offs, hits and stalls will affect your timing/position as you haveto wait for a pushstart from a 4x4 bike, good racing, good kart suspension, facilities spartan compared to kingston, short tracks are fun but long track gives you big speeds.
personally, i'd go back to archerfield but only at night and with enough people to get the larger rather than the two split tracks
hints: bring bike/pushbike gloves, expect your clothing to get dirty, byo food, remember our kart number, try to get: practice race, qualifers x 2, final. If there's many of youz, run two tracks/lots and after the qualifiers, resplit the two groups into two lots based on time/position so you don't have slow drivers being harrased by faster drivers during the final.
