Sorry been a bit distracted this week (been down at GP Karting getting some practice laps in )

1pm at Brampton Halt it is then. It's a nice country pub a bit off the beaten track if you're a stranger to these parts about 20 mins away from GP Karting. I aint paying £12 for lunch either but it's nowhere near that expensive there, standard pub fayre is teh order of the day.

[D_Mike]

is anyone taking any karting gear along with them? helmet/suit/boots?

I am half tempted because it means I won't have to wear sweaty stuff but I am half not tempted because I don't want to look like a ponce.

Might just bring my helmet and boots.

I'm not sure that anybody else has any karting gear. There are a few people who have never been before. Although taking your own helmet is a good idea, the ones at the circuit can be a bit "ripe".

[UncleDave]

DOH! Thanks for that

[D_Mike]

for what?

Well you do anyway, so what's the problem?

[D_Mike]

I didn't know you'd ever seen me?

scared now.

[D_Mike]

its ok dave, once you are in the kart you will be so focused and concentrated (I like to say i am "in the zone" you won't notice the smell.

[UncleDave]

That is until lap 3 when I skittle down the track on my head

[castex]

Thomas
