No offence but how much would it suck if a Pro Karter was going. That takes the fun out of the friendly competition imo.

Maria, whats the score with the numbers.

If we dont meet the 15 can we 100% not go or just not have the track exclusively to ourselves?

Well, we need 15 to have it exclusively, which lets be honest, would be FAB! A whole PF night on the karts!

Rather than keep doing ipswich would it be worth looking at something a little further west, as its a bit of a pain in the arse to get to?

Not a dig, I think its great you are organising stuff at all, but it just might make it a lot easier to get the numbers of people you need thats all.

Whereever it is chip, as proven with milton keynes, we struggle to get a reasonable interest.

How about the out door track @ Lakeside (Thurrock) Im trying to sort out a few people to come anyway! would be £48 for the twin engine karts and 2x 15 min sessions, or maybe a different event?

Yeh but you see its usually split into teams of 2 or 3 people and costs are per team and can be split between the drivers per team

Only saying as you tend to get much more track time and action that way.

The GP event you mentioned is a good buzz aswell but you dont get as much track time per person/driver compared to the endurance/sprint events.

Anyway ill keep an eye on this thread we might turn up
