So how does everyone fancy a bit of sport.

I know a lot of you fancy yourselves as a bit of a closet Shumacher so how about a bit of a Kart GP

We can hire the track at the autodrome one evening for a reasonable fee and they have all the kit you need. The evening can be organised anyway we want from an enduro with teams or a solo driver event.


I think we will be looking for about 20 people ...

Let me know if you are interested and I can get an appriximate price

:iroc:


Can you also include me and zonker93? pls let me know how much i sthe fees and when?
thanks

Hmm - judging by those who are going, the girls probably have a good chance of winning - largely because I'm not going to be there!! 8) 8) 8)

I think its a bit of a summer special

The trouble is when we do it ....

A saturday is best for me as I have to work Friday evenings ...

So then perhaps a Thursday ...

These are their timings
Wednesday: 10:30pm – 12:00midnight

Thursday: 6:00pm – 7:30pm & 10:30pm – 12:00midnight

Friday: 3:30pm – 5:00pm & 10:30pm – 12:00midnight

Saturday: 10:30pm – 12:00midnight

Top effort CG. I'm in - Thursday 10:30pm.

I would say limit competitors to the original quota of 20. Don't want delays cutting into driving times!
