Try the contacts at http://www.whiltonmillkartclub.co.uk/ who should point you in the right direction. Last year's race was organised by Fleet Kart Club, but that doesn't seem to exist anymore.

I competed at the Whilton 24 last year - brilliant fun, but physically an absolute killer! Didn't help that none of us did any training at all beforehand and lived off tea, cigarettes and burgers for the whole weekend...

Whilton 24hr is being organised by Martin Capenhurst (spelling?) e-mail [e-mail] or see here... http://www.prokartnews.com/fullarticle.aspx?f_id=1...

I have just come back from the lemans 24 kart race also run by teeside, Bob seems to think that there are no hire places left, but £350 for owner driver teams, bargin!

[spcmarine]

I believe the event is open to Rotax Max and 100cc karts. I'll be in a Rotax Max. They're pretty quick with about 28bhp.

Erm, do you have a link for this event - what do I need to do to enter

This link http://www.euro-endurance.com/ is the only one I can find. It only seems to be in French so I hope your language skills are better than mine! I'm driving for a team who enter the entire series but who needed an extra driver for Le Mans, so I don't know a huge amount about the series or the specific event.

I haven't checked out your profile but you will need a Kart National A licence.

I've also PM'd you.

thats true I hadnt thought about the rebuild times on tag engines like the rotax, was thinking more along the lines of 100cc direct drive

I'll be there (in Teesside). Mate of mine is heavily involved with organising it, last year we went through 2 engines, a wheel fell off and it pissed with rain. Still came about 17th It's mad good fun, definitely recommend it
