Karting GTG, Castle Combe

Have a good time all.

Don't forget to keep scores so that we all know who the speed demons are!!

:D

Many Thanks for arranging today Andrew, totally enjoyed it, even if we did come 4th :( :D :D
I’m starting to ache all over now, tomorrow will be interesting!

Good to meet some new faces, and chat with the old ones :D

Matt.
 
Thanx Matt for the first report back - looking forward to hearing more - and seeing the evidence :D
 
Was great fun - thanks to all who attended for a cracking afternoon of driving. I am now cured from karting addiction for some time. I feel like I have been run over by a double decker bus. Will post a link to pics later.
 
What an excellent day!!! :D Our team came third despite my driving :p Actually Flyer lived up to his name and bagged fastest lap of the day. :bannana:

Many thanks to Andy (aka Flyer) for taking the time in organising this great day out and thanks to everyone for making the day so enjoyable :D

Matt, I'm pretty sure you wont be the only one aching later :devil: Likewise it was good to meet new faces and catch up with old friends. :cool: :cool:

I forgot my camera :o but I noticed that Andy and Scott were taking plenty of snaps.

Totally awesome day :D

S.

Cheers guys, was a great day (despite missing my turn-off for the M5 and almost ending up in Wales :D ) That's what you get for ignoring Blanche (comand).

Ache? Oh, yes! It'll get better ...

Steve Perry, Peter Church and I spent an enjoyable hour or so in a tasty golf club just around the corner from Castle Combe; pity no-one else could make it.

Here's the results:

Stunning result from Team V8RKY :cool: Rumours that Richie had slipped one of the marshals 20 notes to add a couple of laps to their tally remain unconfirmed :D Seriously chaps, great driving ... :crazy:

Jay, don't worry, I won't mention where your team came ... damn, sorry! :D

I'll put my pictures up on Scott's thread.

Thanks guys; would it be worth doing it again??

Cheers
Andrew

I am karting again on Wednesday morning in Reading. I don't think I'll feel good enough by then. Totally destroyed.

I think there's an error in the team numbers Andrew.

Thanks for arranging a great day mate, I really enjoyed it. I've just transfered the extra £7.50 to your account.

Thanks Richard, now corrected.

3 hours next time, eh? :D

Thanks for the transfer also :)
 
Was a fantastic day... thanks to everyone for making it memorable! We just nailed it from the start which gave us an ealy lead as our average laptime of 29sec shows - although we both would have been in much less pain if we'd just slipped the marshals some cash... :D
 
Flyer,sorry not to have posted my thanks earlier - have been working out of the office for a couple of days.
Brilliant day which must have taken a lot of organising. Many thanks and good to meet all who attended.
Drove home (100 miles) very concerned that I had lost movement and feeling in my left arm, but had returned by mon morning!

PS cracking lap that - 25.59!
 
Cheers Nick, was a very good day. Might be an annual event if there's enough interest (more than this time! :D )

Have you looked at the pics in the other thread?

[schumachermode]I was lucky with the traffic[/schumachermode] ;)

Richie and Richie were the stars; 8 lap lead; 3.5 minutes! Stunning :cool:
