Inter Region Karting

novocaine said

did they give you price for how much it is for those not driving?

the location of this is on the back of a industrial estate and a rail yard so pics should be good. and different from the usual park and trees thing we usually get. anyone fancy a raid on ninemeister to as thats just round the corner. pics of golfs lined up outside a porsche specialist must be ironic in some way. :mrgreen:

There's also a 'golf' driving range across the bridge which would make a fine alternative photo back drop

As things stand a few of us from West Yorks can get there on either 18th or 19th so its all good  8)

I'll give it until Sunday evening so that there are enough people having a say but Saturday (just for Pedders) is looking good.

I've dropped them an eamil to see if those dates are free. I'll report back tomorrow night

Ta, Dan

the huge warehouse you see is the venue.
the bridge you see is one of 9 transporter bridges left in the uk. so again a fantastic photo op.

I'm looking but I can't see it !!!!   re do it please, I'm interested!!

Been onto the organisers, we'd have to be out of the place by 6pm on Saturday but have all day on Sunday at the moment.

Lets see how many people we get first. I've got 5 definates from work for either day plus another for Sunday.

Dan

oh dear i fail.
type in warrington speed karting on google maps.

ah well. haha.

if we are being booted out at 6 there is a nice pub round the corner that does good food apparantly.

Anyone esle???? :dontknow:

Dano, I've got a couple of Mk2 owning mates interested  8O
I think one's a definite but he's in Switzerland driving a ski tour & the other'll let me know next week.

I've read the literature that the company have sent me now.

Besides the event that I've already posted, there is another for ?60 that requires a maximum of 20 drivers. Its a simple event….

20 drivers, 1 race over 40 minutes - NO stopping. the outright winner is the driver with the MOST laps at the end.

he plus point is that it is more of a race and tactics can be employed  :wink:

BUT there is less time for a social aspect because everyone is on the track together as opposed to the 'heats' in the other race.

What does everyone prefer? I'm going to have to make a decision this next week.

Dan

Im in and I like the sound of the 60 lap race, last year it was where you seemed to be placed on the grid and who was holding you up, in the last race i managed to move up 2 places that was because i let everyone in front shoot off for 2 laps so i had clear track in front for 3 full laps before i caught folk up and even though i was last in that race i moved up 2 places on the leader board as i had 3 fast laps.

The social aspect'll have to be before (photos etc) and after (hostelry) we'll fill the middle bit with competitive racing   Could sort a scoring scheme for regional teams aswell. See if we can get that bolly 'back over the border'  

i'm in but not driving.
local boy with local knowledge and all that. :wink:
can plan a mini drive round though for pictures etc. afterwards.

I have 2 more definites (Carl D and Kath) and at least 2 others who are more than likely up for this. Are we still looking at ?60 - ?65 per person, I'll need to let them know?     

Cheers,

Jon

Yep ?60-65.

Thanks, Dan
