Yes Nick it was great to meet you finally

Everyone looked awesome out there speeding around the track! We spectators enjoyed the fender benders and spin outs.

Karting should definitely happen again, but perhaps in the cooler months

What a buzz! Had a brill time!

Maybe now I'll pluck up the courage to venture out into the Arabian roads!!

how did you managed that if your location is "manchester"

It was a great idea, Thanks Cargirl !!! for sure should be done again in the winter ..

It was nice meeting you apl, Nick and Jeevan ..and seeing the rest of you again

Thanks everybody for the great evening. It sure felt strange driving a real car right afterwards. I felt the urge of cutting some sharp corners around trucks on emirates road

Man u people need to see the videos the starting grid,the spin offs, the overtaking it rocks, some kick a## action in there.

P.S - when do we get to do this again

Special thanks to CarGirl for organizing. When I'm back in the office, I'll scan and post the results without names. I will say though in race 2 the top 6 had an equal number of men and women so good on all of yah

Nic,Jeevan and the rest it was great meeting you, always nice to put a face with a nic, pun intended

Pretty Penny Snowboarding is a great idea I was also thinking a road trip to Salahla I'll do some organizing when I'm back from the UK, i was reminded it was my turn again to organize

How about when we recover

By the way the only person I didn't meet was Princess Banana!! Where were you hiding??


Anyway a day at the "slopes" would be great! Definitely something to keep in mind...

how did you managed that if your location is "manchester"


Oops I should change that!

alrighty people,

what do you wan me to do with the pics, the ones in the complete suit without any faces (with helmets ) do u wan me t post them? and i guess i can post it on my website along with a write up if no ones identity is gonna be disclosed?:) i might earn some brownie points for the hits it generates . lemme know guys.

cheers,

Jerry

I wasn't hiding Nick... Just lagging at the back while you guys took 355 degree corners at 100mph!

I'd like to take this opportunity to apologise to all those I collided with in qualifying. I was young and inexperienced and my actions were neither big, nor clever...

welcome to DF

cheers,

hey Jeevs

Any way to get our hands on the video? Do you have any ways of hosting it? What about the pics? If we're all wearing helmets then I doubt there's any problems with posting them

Any group pics before we got in the karts though?

Hey nick,

I am planning to do a nice writeup and post the pictures with the complete suit and helmets where no one can make out whos who on my website. about the other pictures i just have a couple of good shots During the brief for the group. i will mail it to you people, but just to the names that have been registered for the race

The video i am going to make a movie out of it and burn it on a few cds and drop it off with one of you guys whos closest to everyone so you can collect it from him. or else organise another meet soon .

cheers,

Jerry

Jeevan, if you got a good internet connection you might want to consider www.yousendit.com to distribute the video (if it isnt really big) ..

looking forward to see those pics and videos .. thank you for taking them ..

Hey, I don't snowboard that well myself but its a blast anyway. And the coaches are cute! I'll try to organize one myself but I won't have any real time until September (travel, family, travel, work, yada, yada, yada). Mid September snowboarding then?
