I am a mechanic for a kart team and we were only down at Rye House a few weeks ago. Apparently Deavisons have a couple of Rotax Max 125cc two-strokes. If you prove yourself in the regular four-stroke put-puts they will allow you to go out in the Max. I can tell you from a few test sessions in our teams Rotax Max karts that they are blindingly quick and 10 times better then the regular arrive-and-drive four-stroke karts. Give it a go I dare you!?!

yes please, rye is easy for me.
both rye and buckmore are rather tight and twisty though, so you may be better off elsewhere if you don't like that sort of thing.

Guys (and Gals)
It's been a while since we had a Kart meeting. I wonder if people would be interested in a endurance Kart race in, say, Jan or Feb at Whilton Mills or Rye House.
Just trying to gauge interest at the moment so please respond....
Typically we would need to have 15 + Teams to make it viable. I'm prepared to organise it if there is enough interest.
Cheers
Jeff

One vote each for Whilton & Rye
The other choices are Buckmore Park (expensive) or Bayford Meadow...
Rotax Max are OK but I prefer 4-Strokes (we did a season in the Club 100 2-Stroke 100cc karts) like the Biland, EcoMotor or Honda RS360....

And it's a 1 line track with virtually no oppurtunity to overtake ...which is why the number of people turning up for their open races has fallen from 28-30 per race to 5........

Spoken to Rye House
3hr Endurance race - £190 per team (Winter discount)
Available dates are
19th Jan
26th Jan
1st Feb
2nd Feb
15th Feb
23rd Feb
I've asked for the 10am to 3pm slot (the whole event takes about 5 hrs).
I will have to front up £500 deposit and we will need a minimum of 12 Teams.
I need to know peoples preference on date and how many teams ......If there is a sufficient interest (8-9 teams) then I'll book the event.
Cheers
