Default Anyone fancy Karting on the Race of Champions circuit???

Next Tuesday I am going and there is a few spare spots. You have to pay though unless you are a real close bum chum of mine!

Should be cool to get a feel of the circuit before the big one next sunday

Might be a stupid question Lee but did some current and ex F1 drivers race there recently?

Namely people like Schumi, Massa, Piquet, Barrichello etc?

Ahh I saw something on Motors TV on Sky last weekend with them all racing karts!

Could have been in Brazil somewhere then! Schuey won with ease though!

You can tell me on sunday if you are FORTUNATE enough to be invited up into my VIP box

You been to Wembley yet? its UBER bling! very very very cool!

Should be a giggle. They are having a laugh with the prices... but then again the karting is sold out! so what do I know

Will see how the passes are going next week as just posted 3 out! Should be ok though for 2 more.

I'll have to shout up to you Lee, I'll be the bald bloke chatting to Marcus and Schuey down in the media paddock LOL

Seriously, will definitely pop up and say hello, make sure you take the Reyland flag to hang out of the window though!
