Karting at Thruxton
Discussion
Anyone fancy this?
1100m Karting Course, 50mph Thunder Karts
http://www.thruxtonkarting.co.uk/format_wdwegrandp...
We'd need a minimum of 15 people, but by the looks of things would be well worth a laugh...
Running time approximately three hours, so could probably find somewhere for a spot of tea or something afterwards...?
Details taken from their Website:
Plenty of track time, ultra competitive and thoroughly rewarding, our grand prix events are one of the most popular formats we run. The practice session gives enough time to learn the circuit in preparation for the first round of heats, heading up to the first corner 4 abreast approaching 50 mph, this is proper racing! If you don’t do well the first time then there’s always another heat to make up some places, Then a final awaits, which all drivers compete in. The top 3 receive trophies and the winner the all important champagne

I'd be interested if open to non viper drivers !!!
My initial post was really aimed at being something for the UK Viper Club to do as a group to be honest mate, sorry. If we get stuck for numbers, which is probably unlikely considering the friends & family angle, I will let you know. Thankyou for your interest though.

Ok pencil me in subject. By the way are my headers in Luton ??
The headers will be in Surrey this evening, sorry Tony, I forgot to leave them with Baz on the Dunsfold weekend, I'm taking them up to Richard's this evening (They are in the van ready to go).I'm sure Baz & Richard will meet up pretty soon over the next couple of weeks so they will make their way north.
