It's possible this will be England - Netherlands
Quote from ArosaMike :Ah what the hell...go on I'll come Will be interesting to see if I can get the Pros to go full throttle through the first two corners :P I'll sort out some kind of conformation tomorrow evening when I get a chance to find my chequebook and have finished earning the money to pay for it (2-9pm at Starbucks tomorrow :P) I'll probably just become a moving target for everyone to try and take off but what have I got to lose apart from my repuation and life! Haha.

Whilton is also my nearest MSA track so it'll only take me 40mins to get there

I tried going full throttle in a tkm, well it was about two thirds throttle in the second. The back end broke away and i went into the tyres at about 35mph that was fun!

Quote from traxxion :It's possible this will be England - Netherlands

No problem... I shall be in a pub in front of a T.V ready to watch England beat the Dutch. In all seriousness if it does pan out that way, then that is one match I will not miss for the world [not even the LFS version]
hmm damn, i guess that means all the pubs after the race will be packed!

Maybe there is a TV at the Karting venue
Put me down as another non Karting, vid cam toting member of dSRC. I'll be away early evening though as i have a date with the Motogp crowd the following day

Quote from ayrton senna 87 :Team Dev (If they are intrested again/not busy this year):
Scawen (UNCONFIRMED)
Victor (UNCONFIRMED)

eric?
If you'd notice guys, I have added Eric to the official list at the top of this thread. Will's list was a quick copy and paste of the one from the other thread, so it can be ignored now, maybe even deleted.

So far we have no confirmation or otherwise from Scawen, Victor or Eric, but don't give up hope yet, I only asked on Friday. Chill people.

LOL...Club100 TKMs most definitely aren't flat out through it or the last corner either. A guy who raced with us last year who used to race Super1 tried the last corner and did a rather fantastic 360 and managed to *just* keep the thing firing and carry on! Haha. I think even he was quite surprised! Somone less experience also tried it and flipped his kart on the wood chippings!
on a very good day, the last corner can be SO close to flat out, that its just a barely noticable lift. on the day that i went in june 2004, the 1st 2 corners were flat out.

although i think they have 115cc motors in club 100 now?

when i went my best was a 44.09, next best was 44.93 and barnaby pittingale (who u probably know) did a 44.05 while doin some kart testing. i worked for quite a few club 100 meetings and ive never seen such times since.
To get it cheap we always run in the 'off' season so it's usually cold or raining! LOL Fastest time this year (in Feb) was 45.24 in my race with me doing a 45.98. Should be a few tenths faster than that now as I improved from Warden Law onwards (with my 1st at Buckmore where I set the 4th fastest lap in the wet on slicks :P).

Yeah I know of Barnaby. His driving style is nuts buy fast. Sidways everywhere! He spun it in front of everyone at Buckmore though! Everyone cheered! Haha :P
so what else is planned except for the karting ?
Before and after we will be going to the pub, and we are tying to sort out some 'surprises' at the moment. generally just socialising with fellow sim nutters!

last years event was really enjoyable, all the way from 9am to 3am the next day (thanks to shifty) and i have no doubt that this year will be as good if not better, since we have the capacity for almost 50 racers, and we already have about 7 or 8 spectators and camera men.

it was especially good to meet GP4Flo, 3J, Victor and Da Hoe since they are so commited they decided to travel a couple of thousand miles!
a friend of mine is currently in northampton and im considering visiting him for a we and im tempted to synch that with the kart meet ... are there any holidays around that weekend by any chance ?

Disclaimer: Just to clarify, I'm not part of this 'we' so don't blame me for anything that may or may not happen, unless it's regarding the deposit cheques.

No, unfortunately July 1st isn't close to any public holidays unless by random mad chance we do win the world cup

It is a weekend though of course...
World Cup final is on 9th July, so that wont be the case, too, unless you have good fortune tellers.
Quote from Smax :It is a weekend though of course...

i was aware of that
the thing is my friend is in northampton on internship so he hasnt got much time on other days than the weekend
Tristan, take me off the list m8, the date isn't good for me..
Take me from the list too please


Okay
