Anyone know of any decent karting tracks around the North Staffs area? I know there's Fast Lane but surely there's others?
If there are, then how about a meet in the not to distant future.

Oh and cheers to the organiser of the Darlo meet. A good time seemed to have been had by all and now my mind is sent on saving for Turbo insurance!!!!

There is only Fastlane in the area, nearest others are: Wigan, Warrington, B'ham, but are further and more expensive.

How about a regional showdown at Whilton Mill Karting.

The local Northants RS owners club organise a night of racing in June on the Saturday night just before there regional day.

They have a wicked track and some very quick Karts worth the travel.

I am going to try and organise a stand for Subaru owners on the Sunday and there is overnight camping on the Saturday for those wanting to stay over.

I can get a decent price for a session at Fast Lane if anyone is interested...but it'd have to be for a few or else Phil won't do it. They've just redesigned the circuit and its a lot more fun....more overtaking and faster straights.....
....Wigan is excellent...outdoor is sooo much better than indoor, but more expensive and tempramental too...
definately up for it tho'

Yeah, wot sort of prices can you get. I went up against 8 regulars on monday and came second overall. They seemed a bit pissed off! Oh well!!!
We managed to get the £30 endurance for £20 though as the others had already booked an endurance race. 13 in one race is hard going though!
Who would be up for it then?
