Outdoor karting

[notax]

I am intending to arrange an outdoor karting event at Thruxton for anyone and everyone who is interested I have never tried proper outdoor karting but the Thruxton track is apparently excellent and the karts do a genuine 60mph

I am looking at aranging this for one weekend in late September (exact date tbc) and would probably look at a morning session starting off with a mini hoon (of course!)

Two options are available:

Super prix

8 minute practice
8 lap heat
10 lap final

1.5 hours, cost £62

Grand Prix
8 minute practice
8 lap heat x 2
12 lap final (for all drivers)

3 hours, £82

For the sake of an extra £20 I'd prefer the latter, but will be guided by the majority. Any potential takers please post and say which option you'd prefer...

Notax F355GTS Grand Prix
Miss Notax F355GTS Grand Prix

Depending on date - Grand Prix for me!

[666mrb]

Yeah ditto GP for me also. I am away on business for 10 days towards the end of the month, so all date dependent...

[therevday]

Count me in though date dependant as well!

[iiyama]

Date dependant, but I'm in.

[Gwagon111]

Count me in. Make it a Grand Prix, it's much better than the super prix, and the thunderkarts do a genuine 60 KMH

[saleen836]

Myself and Mrs Saleen would be up for this (date dependant)

Excellent news I'll compare diaries with Miss Notax, call THruxton and post a date later

[Jon TVR]

Yeah count me in..... date dependent!

[spike ST500]

The track is excellent, and the karts do shift...

Even more fun in the wet, certainly need a bit bit car control to stay on the track!

[james239]

Count me in.

Never been outdoor karting but heard great things about Thruxton. Haven't been to a PH meet before either so be good to meet some people/have a mini hoon.

[JSS 911]

Yep would be up for this, GP sounds great

[garycab]

Date dependant, i'm intrested.

[biper]

Grand Prix for me.

[notax]

I have contacted Thruxton and there are two options... we can either race at a weekend (although availability and times are limited) at a cost of £82 per head or meet at 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start one Tuesday evening for £69 per head. These prices are for the Grand Prix which the majority voted for. The event will last 2.5 - 3.0 hours...

I realise some people will be disappointed whichever option is chosen but please let me know which you'd prefer!

[JSS 911]

I will go with the majority

[iiyama]

A Tuesday sounds good......

[ryanmini1275]

It would be a yes from me, day and date dependent!

[Gwagon111]

The Tuesday ( race night ) format is not an option for me. The weekend is good though

[james239]

Would prefer a weekend, but only 'cause it wouldn't mean getting back from work in a rush.

Happy to go with the majority vote.
