I organised the same thing on here about 3-4 years ago at the same place and if memory serves we well the whole thing lasted about 2.5 hours all in:D I'll come along and shout abuse but not compete as my back kills me the next day everytime I go Karting:( Ross will probably go tho:rolleyes: Barry has changed the track a bit at xtreme as it now has a flyover:eek:;):cool:

[duncan]

Yes please!

[Craig]

Yeah Rob, as Gordy says, it depends how many people come, which package we go for. The more people, the better change we have of getting the full grand prix (5 heats per person and a final.:) )

I'll let you check with Ross before I put him down as a definately Gordy. ta. :cool:

I'll text you mate - GP or Team Challenge. ?:)

[AndyP & Lenore]

Will be seeing you on Thur or Fri so will pay you then if that's OK.

As for format.... the team challenge looks good as you get 60 mins of constant racing, split between the team. But I think there's more than three teams. It's says 6 to 8 teams of 2 to 3 people depending on the number of racers. If there were only 3 persons to a team that's 20 mins constant racing each, which would be very cool. And with a team effort, even fat b******s like me still stand a (small) chance of a decent time (collectively). With the GP option, you're only guaranteed 2 races of 12 laps each. How long is a lap? 1 min? 2 min?

I dunno.... I'll go with the majority;) . Don't know enough about Karting to make an informed decision.:confused:

trust you not to read all the info... ;) You get 2 heats and then a final regardless of how you perform. (a total of 36 laps) Only the A Final get prizes tho... :D

Money later this week is fine mate ta.

[ianking]

Craig

Sarah would like to come as well. She votes for GP.

Did read it through. It's just that when I got to the end, I'd forgotten what they said half-way through.:rolleyes:

I think the Team challenge thing may be more suited to experienced karters. We'll probably have a mix of experiences there so maybe GP is best. Every man for themselves.

Craig I presume you mean the 2nd of March. :confused::)

Craig, been told that there will be stag "activities" on the Sunday so I won't be able to make it after all I'm afraid - sorry if this scuppers your numbers or anything!

[AndyP & Lenore]

Craig, as I said to you on the phone, RossP's mate; Russell will be joining us on the Karting day. He doesn't yet have a MINI so we need to work on him to get him into the MINI way.

I've amended the first post.

Anybody else want to take part. I have space.. :cool:

[Burple]

cheque for me is now in the post.. sorry that took so long. Was trying to round up people at work..

Ever heard that saying that organising computer programmers is like herding cats?? :rolleyes::rolleyes::mad:

Anyway.. turns out, now that it's cash time, none of them are so keen <sigh>, but my pennies should be winging their way to you :D

If there's any chance of expanding the numbers nearer the date and we REALLY need more people, I'll bend their ears again...
Ellie might be coming, but probably not racing (tendonitis in the wrists :().

you don't have to tell me about programmers, as long as they have their green tea, long hair and sandals with white socks on, they are happy.. :rolleyes:

Ok, I'll put you back to 1 person, I have a few people at work that may be interested, but a couple of them are programmers, so you know how that could go... :eek: ;)

Thanks for the chq in the post. :cool:

[Craig]

Thanks to Duncan and Ewan - received your chqs today. :D

[MINI William]

[Craig]

thanks young man.

that just leaves Marky Boy, but I know where he lives...... must have a new hobby these days... :rolleyes: :p

[Craig]

OK, got 16 confirmed.. :D

would like another 2 to make up to 18 (to make sure we pay £35 rather than £37.50)

anyone else want to come? I will try to get some from work...;)

[N12 JLK]

Would be great Craig but going away just before the karting night and need lots of dosh for that.

[Craig]

Ok Folks, I confirmed the booking today and paid the £315 deposit :eek: :)

When I booked, they confirmed that as we have booked for 18 people, this is the minimum number that can attend (and have to be paid for), although we can go up to 24 people. :) So if you know anyone else that wants to come along, they can pay the full amount on the day.

Also, if you do not turn up on the day, your place still has to be paid for, therefore I would suggest that if it turns out that you cannot make it, either try and get someone to fill in for you, or just send me your final payment.:D

I WILL NOT BE LEFT WITH A BILL. :rolleyes: :(

[Big Gordy]

Craig:D Ross says he will be there if he's onshore at the time;) :cool:

[Craig]

Craig:D Ross says he will be there if he's onshore at the time;) :cool:

No Probs Gordy, he will just pay on the day. I will put him down as a maybe. :)

[MINI William]

craig you got my cheque yet?:(

[Craig]

craig you got my cheque yet?:(

eh, yeah, sorry :o updated the first post but forgot to reply here. Getting paid into account tomorrow.

thanks :cool:

[MINI William]

well thats just not good enough:mad: lol no probs craig:D

[MINI William]

Very funny craig.:D just noticed what you have next to my name lol:D

[broken_brian]

Awww lnl just told me about this i think like bonnie scotland you know my work rota so i cant make it :mad:

[wee dove]

im up for this.i will have some1 else with me if that is ok.

[Craig]

im up for this.i will have some1 else with me if that is ok.

Wee Dove, it's pay on the day for you now, I just need to make sure that we stay within the 18 to 24 runners. Shouldn't be a problem, I'll add you to the list. :D

[wee dove]

thats fine mate.i will definatly be ther.just let me know if ther is only room for me.

[Craig]

OK Folks,

Under 2 weeks to go, just a polite reminder that if you find out you cannot make it, please try and get someone to take you place, or you will have to pay for your place. :( Their rules, not mine I'm afraid.

I suggest meeting at the Falkirk Wheel Car Park on this map.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=camelon&ie=UTF8&ll=56.006468,-3.85633&spn=0.020491,0.05785&z=14&iwloc=addr

Where the A803 and A883 meet, there is a roundabout, you will see a restaurant (The Wheel House), turn into that road and the car park is on your right. If we meet there, then I can take you round to the Karting place as it is a bit tricky to find if you don't know where it is. :cool:

Meet at the car park at 11:30hrs, as they say if we turn up a wee bit earlier, we get more practice time. :cool:

If anyone has any questions, just let me know. Ta :)

[AndyP & Lenore]

Sounds like a plan to me captain.

Looking forward to this.;) Not 'cos I have even a minuscule chance of beating anyone - far to "well fed" for that.:rolleyes: :o

A.:D

[MINI William]

craig do you have a postcode for the falkirk wheel as lets face it i may need some help 2 find it lol:D

[AndyP & Lenore]

A.:D

eh, never even thought about food as you will be finished by about 2ish and you get there about 12.... eh, don't know what they have, but I think it will mostly be snacks. As for taking your own food in, don't know either.:o :o

will need to phone them tomorrow to check.. :)

[Craig]

just had a look at their website and they can do a buffet, BUT I really don't want the hassle of organising this also... :p

I would just take your own stuff in with you and see what happens. :eek: :rolleyes: :)

Wasn't suggesting a buffet. Wouldn't take my own stuff either, without prior permission/arrangement.;)

I guess I can probably go without food for a couple of hours.:rolleyes: Would be a record mind you.:o

[Craig]

Ok Folks, only 6 days to go go go go!!!!! as Murray Walker would say ;)

just a small request, when you arrive at the Falkirk Wheel Car Park, I would like to collect the money for the karting so that we are organised for when we get to the karting, thus meaning more practice laps. :cool:

If you could pllllllllllleeeeease have the right money as I will not have loads of change.. :o :D ;)

ok, who's yer money on for the win ? ?;)

[AndyP & Lenore]

ok, who's yer money on for the win ? ?;)

I would say it's between Rob and Colin.

Everyone else is either "heavier" than them, or a girl. And we know girls can't drive as fast as boys.:eek: :eek: :eek:

<<<<<<< Runs and hides.:o

A.:D

[Big Gordy]

Well....Wee Low'n'Loud was 2nd last time we ran this:rolleyes: Seeing as his arch nemisis, Wul isn't racing he's my bet on a win:D His pocket size and low down centre of gravity are perfect for cart racing:p ;) :D

[ianking]

[stoney]

[Craig]

Thanks to all that came along today - I had nightmares that about 6 folk wouldn't turn up and I would be left with a big bill ;)

There were sure some "interesting" moves today and I think a few injuries. Post pics of your bruises and injuries.. :eek: :D :cool:

Glad you all enjoyed it :cool: This may be another winter event at the end of this year if there is enough interest. :D

[Gismo]

This may be another winter event at the end of this year if there is enough interest. :D
Oh aye, do you need to see my rota so that i can't make it :( ;) :rolleyes:

[mini saltire]

Looked like a fun day!! I wasn't able to make it as I was already Karting, although I was outside... cold.... windy..... wet..... but still great fun! I was entertaining 2 Polish Speedway stars (my inlaws sponsor Berwick Bandits) so the pressure was on to beat them, which I did. Turns out they don't like turning right :D :D !!

[AndyP & Lenore]

Is anyone else unable to grip anything today?

No bruises, but my legs hurt, my arms hurt, my wrists ache, my back is sore and I have absolutley no grip in my hands.

Fantastic day, though. I'd do it all again tomorrow if I had the chance.

A.:D

[Craig]

Oh aye, do you need to see my rota so that i can't make it :( ;) :rolleyes:

yep, just let me know when you are out the country and I'll sort that for you.. :rolleyes: :o :)

[Colin]

Great fun, but you defo feel a bit tender the next day :eek:. Got a big bruise on my lower back, must have been the bridge, kept coming out my seat at the top. But when there's no suspension you have to expect a rough ride. :D

Big thanks to Craig for organising it!
