Well it's not a karting simulator (not yet, damn kart cartype been around for ages, but anyway....), but any press is cool.

I can hear Karl dribbling already.

I'll be at the event, and I'll make a feature out of it, something along the lines of - Does racing computer simulators actually make you a better kart driver? That sort of thing. Should be cool!

I think I'll be racing, so there'll be someone their for you to fire off!! lol

HI Alan, I am fordie. What ever will said about me isn't true Yes regarding deposits, its best to get 1 person to do the whole thing ( me last year ) as it just gets to confusing otherwise. Hopefully Al will accept this, and then you all pay the rest of what you owe on the day ( snotty, remember you have to pay to race ROFL )

Will best to keep a check on who's paid what, then send this list to Al when you send a batch of Cheques.

To be totally secure make sure you make the cheques payable to Karting1 ( if this is the company name )

Other than that, enjoy the weekend, its the most fantastic weekend I have ever had, and yes I will be there, just not racing this year.

This year I decided that I won't be racing, and also decided that its my turn to scale an 7ft wall, then walk across gravel to get a nights sleep ( ring any bells guys )

lol mate.

I thought it was shifty who payed late last time ?

karting1 is the name of the website that will write a report on it I think and not the actual go-karting track?

are you still coming even though you aren't racing because it would be a shame if you didn't

Quote from ayrton senna 87 :This is kinda an LFS event. More importantly, do u want your mates to think u are a geek

lol I think have acheived geek status by the amount of time i spend on my computer!

I dont realy care what they think, but they do play LFS occasionaly.
so can they come or is is licensed players only?
Personally I'd say no, they can't come unless we have trouble filling in all the spots. Playing LFS occasionally hardly marks them out as part of the community, and that is what this is about. Also, demo racers haven't supported LFS in any way, so why should they benefit from socials like this?

If we can't fill the spaces with people who are actually part of the community, which I think is highly unlikely, then perhaps your friends can be considered. But at the end of the day it's not my decision, so if you can pursuade Will (and everyone else) then it's all good. I will just ignore them
Tristan did you win the last one??
ROFL no. I'm way to slow! Will and Swifty won, with ThreeJump and Lippy 2nd, and Scawen and Victor third. I think I came 5th with Tux.
Im suprised by the actually, I know this may have already been asked but what karts will we be using at wilton Bizkarts?
yes, your well practiced at that.
what does the above message refer to?

Well, yeah, kind of... You learn the basic rules of racing... In addition, you'll know that those little karts have more grip than most people would imagine...
Me and some other regulars of the Austrian LFS Championship went to a karting hall last weekend... It was quite good to see that we all were faster than other normal people... While we were driving 37- and 38-times, others hardly got under 41 secs... The karting nutters would beat our times left-handed, of course...

To contribute something ontopic: I can't come, it's just a too long trip for that...
Going quickly when karting for the first time is all about confidence and attacking the bends. That shouldn't be a problem for LFS'rs, just imagine every corner is T1 and you'll have all the confidence you need...
Will, I've never driven twin engined pro karts before. Will I be o.k?
They're actually pretty easy to drive IMO (but that could be because I'm used to them!). You can't really get much throttle oversteer unless it's a really fast corner. Hardest thing about them is the physical side of it. They weight a tonne compared to a race kart so you get pretty knackered in an endurance. Personally though, on a track like whilton you should be fine. Plenty of run off and it's big enough for it to feel similar to an indoor track power wise.
hopefully! they feel pretty fast to start but u will easily be able to drive them, alot of people who drive them have never driven anything before and they are slow but ok, but with the lfs lot, most hadnt done karting before but everyone was wicked last year!

about the physical side, they weigh alot but theres not alot of grip to get you tired, so a 1 hour stint is pretty easy, but at GP it is pretty tough. no-one will get blisters this year.
Right o.k then I'll take that as a yes

Should be good, finally be able to meet you all...even if the woman will be in tow.

I'm bringing my own gloves this year just in case. Ruined my sex life for weeks that did!
