Default ::Go Karting - Milton Keynes - Saturday Sept 5th @ 12 midday::

Well peeps, i have now provisionally booked the go karting centre EXCLUSIVLEY for us at 12 Midday on Saturday September 5th.

We shall be racing on the International 1365 metre circuit formats using twin engine 70 mph Karts!!!!

And this is the race we shall be doing!


Daytona Cup - 20 driver minimum 30 max
The sprint format; Individual racing - all drivers receive a 5 minute practice session followed by a 30 minute sprint race to the finish line. The top 3 drivers jump up on the podium to receive trophies in the award presentation.
£55 per person


The only other slot that they had available for that date was 7.30pm! So they are booking up FAST!

We will need to submit 50% DEPOSIT by JULY 1ST. And the remainder will need to be paid 1 week BEFORE the race!

IF YOU PAY YOUR DEPOSIT, AND YOU DO NOT RACE, YOU LOSE YOUR DEPOSIT.

I know its short notice folks, but they are already practically booked up til October!!

So...... preferably you can pay me by paypal or direct into my bank. Please pm me for details!

So.... we need a MINIMUM of 20 people to do this, up to a MAXIMUM of 30.

Bung your names down here please! (copy and paste the list!)

Dont forget, we are also going to be doing a night out in Milton Keynes after the karting! So please let me know if you are planning on doing one or the other or both! Ta.

that sounds awesome - but isnt 55 quid expensive for only 30 mins of racing.

I organised a simialr thing here in slough and it would have come to 35 quid for 10 people or more for an hours race.

Not knocking it all but just thought I would share my tupence worth.

Nothing beats go kartin in Spain as we destroyed about 4 cars in the first day and then went back the next day and destroyed some more they didnt even care

saying that Maria i think Daytona is more expensive and outdoors wheras the ones we have here are in doors

I did a outdoor go kart day in Hemel once with the 70mph karts and they were mental.

R4N - i think youre right!! It is a bit much i must admit, but i think it is just down to the sheer size of the place and the good Karts!

plus, there isnt anywhere else around!

Cant make that date sadly, as its the castle combe summer action day on the 5th of september, and much as I like Karting I prefer action days at combe.

Will try and make the next one though if it doesnt clash with a trackday next time

PS

Price seems fine to me given the size of the circuit (nearly a mile!) and the speed of the karts etc.

pmsl. my sister is a nurse and all the women went karting, and needed 2 more people to make the numbers up, so i went along with my other sister, it rained, i lapped everyone 3 times, although lapping a race filled with women is no acheivement. loads of crashes and drifting in the wet too
