Go Karting In The North East

[Guest sritony]

Yeah I was going to head down about that time even though i'll be in the old tin top but weather isn't looking to good at the moment ! so gotta hope the weather man is wrong!

 

Should be a good little session aiming to be in the top 15 haha

[Guest red7]

Everyone going for a drink afterwards? There's a decent pub near the track that serves a good Sunday Lunch.

[Guest mastarforth]

sounds like a good plan to me

 

see you all there at 12.45

[Guest neil stobbart]

I'll be over about 12:45 and up for a drink afterwards.

BUT WHO ARE THE LAST 2

 

Drink and food sounds good (is it worth taking the phone number Steve and booking lunch once we get to the track and know the numbers, just in case there is a lot of interest in the food)

I don't know who last 2 are but I have done it twice and first time I ran out of petrol and 2nd time I crashed so 3rd time lucky or I am being obtimistic and I will come last!

 

Drink and food also sounds good to me ......... they are my two fav things and me and louise would be fine with that!

Ross would go too

[Guest Ian Marr]

Fab - beats changing the radiator on the tin top

 

Good idea to eat afterwards - I need every help to reduce weight of kart and driver combo! (sounds like a starter at Pizza Hut) ... maybe the rest of you would like to go for Sunday Lunch beforehand?

 

Roll on Sunday - do they provide wet tyres!

[Guest sritony]

I think I need to change the title to boating in the North East haha!! apparently in the wet its the heavier you are the better so am good

[Guest red7]

I've booked a BIG table at the pub and told them to expect a Gang of starving Merrymen and women around 2.30ish. I'm off to tinker with the Hood for a couple of hours. See you soon,

What a day! The karting was a great success. We must go again before the winter kicks in. I'm a wreck with aches and pains all over so it's going to be a few weeks before I'm ready to go again. It was a pity we had to race alongside those strangers. Next time we will have to get 100% Hoodies. I think it would only be fair to weigh everyone and devise a handicap system. The kart's do not perform equally so we need to sort that out for next time too.

Who have I missed?

[Guest mastarforth]

was very good fun, and as I was one of the heavier drivers out ther, I would agree a handicap of description would be ideal ;-)

[Grizzly]

Count me in for next time please.

Couldn't go this weekend due to family commitments.

[Guest red7]

Next Karting session at Warden Law (Saturday or Sunday, date to be decided). 25 names required if possible. Weight Handicap system to be operated if practical. What about a starting grid with heaviest at the front lightest at the back? Suggestions please. lol.

had a very good time, wish I hadn't got the red mist and crashed and 3rd lap but hey i'll learn to bide my time next time

[Guest neil stobbart]

Had a great time! Count me in for next time and not being as light as I once was a handicap system sounds good!
