Been taking advantage of the Tuesday special at Brentwood karting recently, good fun to blast a few cobwebs away in 30mins! Be good to try and get a few of us Essex PHer's together for some karting; Lakeside track is well worth a look too. Anyone interested, I'll be happy to do the organizational bit.

Fancy it tomorrow? You'd probably need to be there 30mins before for sign up, briefing, etc though. Quite fancy 30mins at Lakeside - good fun track!

I'd need a little more notice! But I'd like to join a Essex PH karting session sometime.

No probs Dave - spread the word! I'll put together a list of interested parties and send out a list of possible dates to see what works best for people. If we get enough, we I could arrange an exclusive PH only session - otherwise it's just a case of block booking however many folks are up for it.

Can't do this evening I'm afraid as have a car issue to sort out. However, if you are able to get a few of us together at the Lakeside track I'd join in if I could. I haven't been out in a decent kart since my days of racing with Club100, and we weren't allowed to race at Lakeside as the karts were too quick for the drop off turn over by the roundabout yikes

thumbup Would be good to get enough together for our own session, but even if only half a dozen would still be a good craic

I'll DM you all in the next few days to get email addresses, and will send group email with suggested dates in due course.

Good afternoon karting fans!! OK first date for this is shaping up to be next Wednesday - either 19:00 or 19:35, depending which is most popular. It's £30 for 30mins @ Lakeside, a really good fun circuit with a couple of really ballsy corners.

Can you stick your name down here with preferred session time if you fancy it?
