Was speaking with one of the skyline guys on saturday while at lakeside go karting and we was thinking it could be a good idea to sort a karting event out before the end of the year with the skyline boys and girls.

anyone interested? if so i'll get in touch with him and he'll have a word with bubble to sort from that end.

matt.

i spun it a couple of times in the dry on saturday when pushing too hard. still only got my lap times down to the low 44's. the winners were hitting low 42's. would like to have a go in the wet.

Thats the best bit, it's a bit of a leveller for those of us with a fuller figure

And yep, I'd be down for a day at Lakeside

I should have sorted one out a while ago

vega

It's a real challenge in the wet as they understeer like mad, although got some great drifting.

I had a major accident on the back straight, someone hit me up the ar$e on the crest of the drop before the hairpin, then someone hit me flatout

How reliable were the karts when you went, as some people changed two/three times in a race, plus some were only running one engine

Adidas

I've been there once or twice , I've never really noticed any reliability problems, except for when people have the occasional off

the drop is mental. i nearly hit someone there flat out. luckily i hit the brakes hard enough to avoid them but spun out on the corner.

was only our team that had kart problems. first one in practice was only running one engine, then the next one cut out later in the race. the rest were fine though.

BRI4N

I'm in.

Anyone got any idea of prices there?

yellowvanman

Oh Yes, putmy name down.

How about Rye House or Brentwood? As we did lakeside for the last karting event?
(Brentwood owned by the same people as lakeside, Rye House is a 'Proper' Kart track!

Tiny

I Think

1 Hour enduro costs £90 Divided by 2 Drivers = £45 ea iirc

& One of the best £45's You will ever spend imho , It knocks the socks of karting indoors

Tiny ...

rhybeck

More the merrier

Be good if a few KS Could join us, We normally struggle to get numbers / commitment for karting events due to the costs involved

should have a few skyline boys as well. i'll get in touch with chris who will speak to bubble. hopefully we'll get what ever track we go for to ourselves.

Phil

Better not tell them Ed's going

Phil

Also warn the Marshall's Tiny's coming

He loves running them over

Phil

Bayford Meadows is an option if we can get lots of Kent interest
