Christmas Go-Karting 27th December

[Big Gordy]

I know a guy who is just about to open a new karting track in Larbert and wondered if there would be any interest in maybe going during the Christmas / New Year break :question: Everything is brand spanking new (well it will be at the end of the month when he opens for business ;)) His Karts are German 200cc jobbies I think. If there's enough interest I can find out more info and see about a discount :p:D:approve:

If we could meet for this 'extravaganza' in the car park at the Falkirk Wheel at approx 1.15pm that would be gggggggggrrrrreeeaaattt
The karting place is only 5mins away and the mayhem is scheduled to start at 2pm finishing at about 4pm. I was planning on heading to the karting at about 1.35pm as when we get there we'll have to get suited and helmeted up. This could take some time as we trying to find romper suits small enough for Ewan and Julz:D Any questions? No? Good :D See you there then:p:D:approve:

[GAJ]

Sounds like a laff! I've never been karting before though so we will find out how crap I am at it a week on Sunday! Put me down as a provisional Aye!

[Julz]

Oh why not, put me and me laddie doon please!!;)

[Gismo]

[Big Gordy]

Ohhh God what have I done :eek:
I'll edit the first post with a list OK
Right,is everybody off between Christmas and New year :question:
It's in an Industrial unit in the Lochlands Industrial estate in Larbert. I was thinking of meeting at the 'Falkirk Wheel'car park as its only 5mins from the track :p:D:approve:

[Big Gordy]

Hang on l-n-l. Stand still I'll get ma gun :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

[GAJ]

Aye, very smart ya gonk that ye are ;) May need to pull an organising committee together this year, honestly don't know if we'll have the time to sort it or not. Will start a new thread at a later date.

[Big Gordy]

He has a website www.falkirkgokarting.com
Its £32.50 during the day with no number limit or £37.50 for 6pm till when it finishes with 30 people minimum.
50% deposit 2 weeks after booking (but he will be flexible) he is also in the process of setting up a paypal type thingy for groups to pay into which is cool:)
he hopes Christmas will be busy so lets see about picking a date as soon as possible to avoid disappointment :p:D:approve:

[Julz]

Well I'm off from the 17th Dec. til the 3rd Jan!!

[Burple]

Oooooh, Double teaming by the big lads eh??

[Big Gordy]

:eek:Off from the 17th - shocking:eek: Anytime will do you then;) :p:D:approve:

[Julz]

Cheeky!!:eek: I'm actually taking an extra week as annual leave or maternity leave as the case may be as the weekend of the 17th should be when I pick up my new baby puddy cat (who hasn't even been born yet!!):I:D

[zimbo]

DOH!!! Well I'm off from the 19 Nov - 3 Jan and will be in Oz...:D:p Will be back before Christmas tho, so depending on dates can you please put me down as a maybe Mr B.G thank you.

[broken_brian]

[duncan]

[Wul]

Stick me down as a maybe too please Big G! Usually work a few days in between xmas and new year but might be able to wangle it!





Sits back and waits for the torrent of abuse to start![:blackeye:

[Big Gordy]

Wul I have every faith you will turn up just because its me thats organising it :p:D:approve:

[Big Gordy]

Someone will have to pick a date so here goes :p
How does the afternoon of Monday 27th December sound. Most of us should still be off as Christmas is on the Saturday.If we pick an afternoon then the numbers aren't critical and its a bit cheaper for everyone ;) How does that sound :question: :p:D:approve:

[Eggy7496]

yeah ats good for me

[Willie M]

Monday 27th fine with me Big G :approve:

[john]

I would like to be added to this list too:)

[frizzie__kizzie]

Hmm...karting isn't quite my thing although it sounds like good fun. Don't suppose there's any room in the car for me to come and watch, daddy?

:I:clown::kiss:

[zimbo]

27th should be fine for me... :D

[Duncan Stewart]

Great idea. Deffo come if dates fit. Cheers

[Tahra]

Hey Gordy, since we're having to pull out of this weekend's run put us down as probables for this one. Maybe I can beat J round the track after all. Julz and I can compare kitten photos...our new addition has just reached nine weeks old and already is a total torag - but cuter than cute of course !

[Big Gordy]

I was down at this place yesterday and it's going to be awsome when it's finished :D He's sand blasting the concrete floor right now so it's nice and grippy but the unit is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge:eek:
2 of his karts are going to be outside Boots in the Stirling shopping centre this Saturday if anyone wants to see them.
I've asked him to provisionally book the afternoon of December 27th but as usual he's looking for 50% of the fee soon :( He normally wants it within 7 days of booking but has given me until the end of November to get it too him :) I know Wul used paypal. Is it still available:question: If so could I use this option for this event:question:If so how do I go about it:question: :p:D:approve:

[Julz]

The PayPal facility is still available, but that's as much as I can give you as I have been unable to set up my events account as my pc is still in the flat until we get broadband at home and I can't set up the account on my work pc or I'd get a row from myself! (I'm in charge of IT here!);)

[weefozzy Jr]

Put me down for a place + one :D, have to find another mate(raceland member) to help me.:D:p:p

[Wul]

Big G - the events paypal account worked fine - email Calum to check it's ok. :)

[broken_brian]

are you going to get them to teach you how to do a lap without spinning :p:clown::blackeye:

[Eggy7496]

hehe, mmm i'll be chasin another win hopefully, lol

[Julz]

Can we please make sure there is insurance as I broke a nail the last time and got no compensation!!:mad:

[Eggy7496]

hehe, ats one less too bite julz:D;)

[Big Gordy]

Ooooooops:I He's given me until the end of OCTOBER to pay not November. Sorry :dead:
Can anybody give me any info on the paypal account:blackeye: I've tried contacting Calum but he's not speaking to me:( :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Big G - i'm sure one of the all-powerful moderators will be along shortly! They should be able to change the password on the account so that only you and they can access it - i've removed my bank details from the account so it's ready to roll again! :D

BTW BigG - what's the damage for the deposit?

[Julz]

I would if I could, but seeing as I only have internet access at work at the mo, I can't create new accounts through outlook as is required for such a task, I'm sure Bonnie Scotland will be able to help, when he appears!!;):clown:

[Big Gordy]

Wul he's looking for half up front (£16.50) by the end of October. That would leave £16 to pay nearer the time :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Julz - no need for outlook - log on to the nms paypal account - change the password then email the mods and Big G with the new log-in details - easy :)

if you've forgotten the old password - i can email it to you if you want't? :eek:

BigG - that sounds pretty reasonable ol' chap :D

[Julz]

Wul, I tried that but I'm either being very thick or the password has been changed!:clown::I

[Wul]

Julz - you have mail!

:D

[Big Gordy]

I suppose I could use my own paypal account if I'm stuck :p:D:approve:

[Julz]

quote:Originally posted by Wul

Julz - you have mail!

:D


Yup, that's what I've been trying!:evil:

[Big Gordy]

Wul pm me you phone number as I've no idea how this paypal account thing works :I :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

julz - reckon MMM has changed the password.

:)

[Big Gordy]

And he seems to have fled the country :p:D:approve:

[Big Gordy]

:p:approve::mad:Where are you man.........just tried to phone and got your answer machine..........Do you really exist:eek:

[Tahra]

Wul, when Gordy gets this all set up can you give Gordy our old deposit, then we'll only owe him one ?? Just thought it would be one less cheque to cash etc

[Wul]

Will do that Tahra - I can make the paypal deposit for you no problemo! :)

[Gismo]

Erm, sorry BG, sounds like Wul :I i'm gonna have to withdraw from this, only reason is i don't know if i can make it or not

Would everyone who intends to go to the festive go-kart extravaganza on the 27th December please drop me an email at gs@weirpumps.com and confirm how many deposites you wish to pay for.
Thanks :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

[Willie M]

That's me paid up :approve:

[Big Gordy]

Yes I've had a HUGE response to my request for payment :evil:
3, yes 3 people have responded and one of them was paying for somebody else :eek::p;)
Col you were just not menacing enough :p:D:approve:

[Duncan Stewart]

Sorry Gordy but not sure if we can make this one cos it looks like were going up north for the week so I'll drop out of the go karting but might make it along to spectate.

[Mini Me]

If you can get MENZIES shut down for the day,i will come !!!!!!

[Big Gordy]

Can I just remind those that are intending to come to this event that the deposits are due to be paid this week :evil:
So far only 5 people have paid and only 3 are from NMS :dead:
So come on you lot pull your finger out and get it paid :disapprove: (if your coming) :p:D:approve:

[GAJ]

I'm afraid I'll have to withdraw.

[Wul]

Gordo - drop us another email please for my deposit :)

Fnar fnar.

[Big Gordy]

I'd just like everyone to know that Wul has paid his deposit for the karting ;) Which means that we will be blessed with his presence, banishing once and for all the myth that he doesn't exist :D
I knew you wouldn't let me down Wul :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

Like your missus is ever going to do enough miles to use it! :p

[Big Gordy]

Ehhhhhhhhh, I think you've posted this in the wrong thread ya big eejit :mad: Should it not be in the dealer oscar awards thread:question: :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

Hmmm. Wonder how on earth that happened! I don't know how I could've posted it in here by accident. :question:

[Wul]

Hey Big Col! maybe it was because you meant to put your name down for this run? :p

[Big Gordy]

Anyone still to pay their deposit:question:
New job so no email yet :mad:
You'll get me at gstewart1960@hotmail.com though :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

or alternatively you can send it to baldybawsak@hotmail.com :D

[Tahra]

Sorry, I did send the link to J to pay for the other deposit, Ill "remind" him again !!! Might be in the tank though....we'll just tag along at the back so as not to embarass.........

[Tahra]

That was quick Gordy, just came out of NMS when I got your reminder ! Toooo efficient.

[Big Gordy]

Bad dog, Zimbo, Eggy, Broken Brian, John, WeeFozzyJnr and Scottiecoop are you guys/gals coming :question: Trying to finalise numbers:approve: Need minimum 15 to run a Grandprix event. We currently have 12 combatants:D Anyone else want to join in:question: It's not too late :p:D:approve:

[zimbo]

Yeh, sorry not been on line for while as I've no pc. Yeh I'll give my money to LnL to pay for me cheers Gordy.

[The Dogfather]

Gordy - Can't commit just yet we've got family coming up and they've not confirmed how long there staying. I would love to be there but if it easier leave me out.... just to be on the safe side

Sorry mate!

[Big Gordy]

BDM the karting guy hasn't got his paypal thing up and running yet so the deposits are still sitting in the NMS account waiting to be transfered so you still have some time to decide ;) We really need another two so we can run the GP event (5 drivers/3 heats) Any less than 15 and he say's we will be knackered and it won't last long :( as you will hardly ever be off the track :p I've provisionally booked it for 20 as thats the number that showed some interest early on but its not cast in stone :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Gordy - you could of course open it up on MINI2 to see if theres any interest! :question:

[Big Gordy]

Do you mean there are mini owners in Scotland who only look at mini2:eek::eek::eek::eek: <where's that kneecap terror when you need him Euan...Euan go get em>
I've only been on mini2 once I think and they sent me here :approve:
It would be a bit of a trek for them would it not:question::question::question:
Some people just seem to have vanished :eek: Broken Brian, John and WeeFozzyJnr to name but a few:mad: They said they we're coming originally but I've not heard a skooby since :blackeye:;) :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

quote:Originally posted by Big Gordy

I'm afraid so! Also some of the Northerners like to go for a "wee" drive sometimes and end up in Cullen! ;)

[broken_brian]

i was just waiting to payday (which is friday) to pay up

[Willie M]

Big G. I may have an additional 1 coming along with me. Will confirm, and pay deposit for, in the next few days.

[Big Gordy]

OK Willie :D I'm only on the web sparodically this week as I'm down in Bristol so bear with me if I don't get the paypal money request thingy out to you straight away :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Gordo - what time are we booked in for the go-karting at? is there any associated run or just a meet-up and go!?

questions questions questions!!

:)

[Big Gordy]

I think its 2.30 to 4.30pm for the karting. I hadn't planned anything run wise:I Was just going to meet at the 'Wheel' and drive to the karting place which is only 5mins away :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

That's cool Gordo - Given the holiday hangovers etc that's probably a good idea anyways :I

[weefozzy Jr]

[Big Col]

What's the spectator charge big G? :D

[Big Gordy]

No charge big C for spectating at this circus:clown: :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

is that because you are so lanky that you cannae fit in the kart Col? :D

or is it the size of your head relative to the crash helmets :p;)

[Big Col]

Nah. They just never get overalls to fit me.

[Burple]

Snigger...

I still think you should come and play tho..

It would be a giggle!... well for us anyway watching you trying to get into the overalls!!!!:D:D:D:D

I don't care if I need a Mothercare one.. at least it fits!!! :p:p:p

[Big Gordy]

[Big Gordy]

Right all you smarty paypal user types :evil: Barry's not going to have paypal now so how do I transfer all the dosh out of the NMS account and into somewhere I can get my hands on it :question: I know you can add bank details but it says something about a charge of 14quid if the name on the account doesn't match the paypal one :dead:(I think that's what it means anyway:I) Any ideas anybody:question::question: :p:D:approve:

Gordo - they must have changed the T&C's cause all i did was set up my account no and sort code and away I went! The alternative would be to transfer the dough to your own paypal account and withdraw it from there.

[Big Gordy]

I think I'll just do the same as you did Wul;) They can't ask NMS for £14 can they as its a club paypal account;) Anyway if I move all the money into my paypal will they not charge me 3.4% + 20p for 'laundering' it :question:

[Wul]

Probably will Big G - go for your life - BTW it took about 5 days for the money to appear in my account! :eek:

[The Dogfather]

Big G - Can't make this now :( my relatives are now staying until the 27th.

I'd have gone for blue overalls then Me and LNL could have been team smurf!

heh heh heh..
and my vote goes to Big C to be Gargamel!! :evil:;):D:D:D

[Big Gordy]

That's the 15 deposits paid into the gokart chaps bank account so it leaves a whopping 21p in the paypal account ready for the next NMS event:p Anyone else who wants to go will just have to cough up the full £32.50 on the day :p:D:approve:

[Kirsty]

I've just noticed this thread!! Might come along to spectate cos I've no pennies at the mo!! I know where it is so I'll see lot there at 2.30pm if I can make it!!

[Burple]

Haw.. Big Man..
Could you post the final details (meeting time, location etc) in the first post so us lazy buggers don't have to crawl through 8 pages of Big C's nonsense?? ;);):D

ta :D

[Gismo]

Gordy, looks like i may be off, but, would there be anything an 11 (going on 12) year old could do whilst i'm driving etc??

[Big Gordy]

Don't realy know Alan, sorry:I His spectating area is quite smart but I have no idea what facilities he has available :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Playing with your shiney new RC Mini in the car park methinks alan! :eek:;)

I'll probably meet you all at the karting venue, going to be in a bit of a mad rush. Will be there for 1.35pm though :)

Edit: I've already e-mailed you Gordy but I'll have a definite '+1' with me now. If you need the cash let me know, failing that he'll stump up on the day.

[Big Gordy]

Yeh Willie sorry for the delay in replying:I You're OK for the +1 if he just pays on the day. :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Hey Big G! My mate Stu is gonna come along with me for kartin too - is that ok?

[Big Gordy]

Yeh no problem Wul;) Stu will just have to pay the £32.50 on the day. I think we're standing at 17 drivers so far :p:D:approve:

[Big Col]

and 2 pit people. :)

[Big Gordy]

Definately 3 pit people maybe 4 ;) Kirsten's coming and BS might be bringing junior along :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

:cool: Cheers gordo - cash will be on hand at the venue :)

[Wul]

Big G - are there any better directions to the wheel than THESE (http://www.falkirk-wheel.com/wheel/faq.htm#How)?

[Big Col]

Oh NOOOOOOOOO the scary frizzie one is going! :eek:

[Big Gordy]

Right Wul here goes.........
If your coming from Edinburger stay on the M9 past Grangemouth, heading for Kincardine Bridge. Take the M876 heading for Glasgow. After about 5 miles on the M876 take the off-ramp signposted Denny/Bonnybridge (you can't miss it as you go under a bridge and its at the bottom of a long downhill section of motorway) Watch this ramp as the bend tightens up as you get to the bottom of the hill. There will be a small garden centre/farm on your left. Right at the farm, at the give way sign, turn right over a hump back bridge. This leads to a roundabout. Take the first left (I think its signposted Falkirk Wheel but not sure) Follow this road for about 2 miles (it goes over a small bridge with a gas valve station just past it on the left just before a farm) This brings you to the roundabout at the Wheel car park. Take the second exit into the car park. Hopefully I'll be there by then..............;)
Same applies to the Dundee/Aberdeen folk. Head for Glasgow after Kincardine Bridge (M876) with the same off ramp as above.
Hope that helps :p:D:approve:

[Wul]

Smashin! :) Got another mate coming now too Gordy so can you update me to Wul + 2? :D

Can't confirm yet, will advise before the event though, all depends on whether junior wants to sit and watch etc

[broken_brian]

so it is the bottom wheel car park and not the top one then just so as i dont go to the top one and find noone there

[Big Gordy]

Top:question:Bottom:question: I dunno:eek: Just go to the one nearest the roundabout that way people on the roundabout can see us if they're in any doubt :p:D:approve:

[Tahra]

Roundabout ??? I remember two carparks right enough - we'll just keep our eyes peeled for a load of shiny Minis from our elevated tank position !!! Sorry was there a definate time sorted out for the wheel ? I must have gotten sidetracked with the talk of rompersuits etc

[Big Gordy]

See first post for times etc Tahra :p:D:approve:

[Kirsty]

Hey Big G!! Sorry to be last last minute is there space to put me and wee bro down for the fun and games?? I had said I was coming to watch but pennies have grown in the tree in my garden so I could come tp play!! It's ok if I'm too late cos I'll still come along an watch but just thot I'd be cheeky an ask!!?? I'll try to check thread later on today!!

[Big Gordy]

Yes Kirsty its OK if you and your bro come along and join the fun:D Don't think there is a limit to how many I bring along 8) I've booked it for 20 so you and bro make 19 I think :p:D:approve:

[Kirsty]

Cool!! Thanks Big G!! See you on Monday!! :)

[duncan]

Not sure if i'm coming through by train tomorrow, but, I do, I can get to the car park easily enough by the looks of things.

Would it be possible to get a lift from there to the centre from some kind person?

[Tahra]

Now why didn't I think of checking the obvious page........ see you's tomorrow !

[Wul]

Dunc - there should be room with me from the car park if no-one else can manage to get you all the way there!

[duncan]

Cheers Wul!

[Kirsty]

Big G... I've got another straggler for you!! Shaz also wants to come an play!! Could you put his name down!! Thanks (think that makes it 20!!??) See you all shortly!!

Fantastic afternoon of adrenaline packed fun. A HUGE thank you to Big G for organising it all.
Well done Wul and Ewan for just edging it from me ;)
Strangely enough, and I only realised this when I got home and read my printout thingy, I actually posted the fastest lap in all 6 races I competed in (although Wul took the fatsted lap of the day by .2 of a second).
Great day. We must do it all again sometime :cool:

Great fun! Only my second time karting and it was a hoot! Just need to lose some weight to keep up with Ewan and Wul next time :D

[frizzie__kizzie]

It did all look like rather good fun...I REALLY wanted a go but I was too young!!! Oh well, there is always next time! :approve:

:I:clown::kiss:

[Wul]

WELL DONE BIG GORDY!!

Fantastic way to spend the bank holiday afternoon - great venue, very well run and some good competitors too!:)

Big thanks also to Ewan(LnL) for keeping the pimpmeister moffat from my door in the final:cool:.

Ross - you were the scariest driver i've seen in front of me for a long time - remember it's fastest to go round the corners moving forward rather than sideways :eek:;)

Kirsty - you were defo the most tactical driver and sorry again for the mishap on the last lap :clown: - so how long till you stop reminding your brother that you beat him? :D

Thanks from my mates Allan and Stu also - they had a blast.

:)

Gutted i couldn't make it :( Sounds like you had a good time :)

[Kirsty]

Fantastic afternoon guys!! Well done to the three bestest drivers (well fastest anyway!!) ;) Is anyone else sore today?? I'm aching almost all over...oh that'll be from when Wul stole third place from me!!!??? HEE HEE!!! We hardly ever see you Wul but when we do we certainly know about it!! HEE HEE HEE!!! I'll maybe forgive you, but stop reminding my bro that I beat him?? NEVER!!!! Nice to see everyone and I'll definately second doing it all again!!! Thanks for organising it all Big G, had a total blast!!

[Julz]

I REALLY wish I could have made this, but it's been non stop disasterous/hectic round here lately! Sounds like you all had fun anyway! ;):D

That would be fine BG!! (slightly OT here, I just showed Rob the piccies of all the minis to date, he's VERY impressed, and now VERY impatient!! I've sent him out in the snow with his petrol car!!;))
