Quote from Simon Savage :

So briefing is at 1.00pm still?

Proving my point exactly.

Tristan - you freak, rehearsal, own up and be a man, call it wanking.

I'm still on the scrounge for anyone with recording equipment for some in-kart footage. I'll bring the bullet cam and stuff down with me anyway just in case, you never know who might get bored of holding the camera track side and is willing to risk it in a kart

I think at this stage it's only fair that I reveal my real name (if I haven't done it before), so it's ... Decibella ! Umm, no, wrong thread ... it's Neil.

Look forward to seeing you all there

Hi there fellow lfsers!!! + karters

Not long now! really looking forward to it but already starting to feel the anxiety as I have never driven a kart before, so it should be an interesting day for me.

Loook forward to seeing you all there.


mad

I think I've PM'd everyone who is confirmed. If you didn't get a PM, and you know/think you should have then read this page to find out about the earlier briefing or the basic plan (involving the pub at 10:30 - 11:30).

Well for dSRC the event has begun

Bogey is heading south as i type from sunny ol Scotland. Picking up Ed and myself at various service stations on the way, heading down to sunny old Oxford for a barby at Bladey's this evening.

Weather is looking good here in Coventry atm (20 mins from Whilton Mill) and i'm looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow

Have fun dSRC, at least the weather is good (and apparently even warmer tomorrow).

Danowat has told me he can't make it now due to his home life buggering up him plans. Damn women...

Yep, let it be a lesson you all you single people, don't get too involved with women as most of them are freaking mental illepall

Hope you have a GREAT event chaps, maybe next time

Dan,

Good Luck and have fun everybody. Shame I cannot make it this year, but never mind.

Few points to remember:

Don't give Wendy an Inch in Karting
Don't let Wendy tell you he knows of a good pub
Don't Give Wendy your Phone Number

Have Fun

Regards

Fordie

4. Flip wendy the bird whilst driving

Ken? As in Ken Wilby? Or is it Bill Bendy? Or Den Wilby? I can't remember, suffice to say Will's name has a lot of comic alternatives

Everyone ready? :banana:

This looks like it's going to be very competitive.

Still wish I could've come this year. Hope you all come back in one piece.

Well... One piece each. Y'know.

Here's a bit of Friday night reading for you lot -

http://www.karting1.co.uk/overtaking-karting.htm

...

Nice reading, just one problem ...

The braking guide -
If I was to brake in the manner shown in that guide (remebering i'm not the lightest of people), everyone would know my braking point on the first corner, as the rear axle would be left lying there from when it was ripped unceremoniously from the kart. Then, to rub salt into my wounds, everyone would know what line I was taking to the apex of the first corner as the arse end of my kart leaves scrape marks on the tarmac

I don't think there's much point in me going to bed, i'm just too bloody excited
So if i'm missing tomorrow, you'll know I tried to stay up all night and then finally fell asleep at 7:30am

Well, this is it, one more sleep, then GO GO GO

Lists of people - check
Maps to Whilton just in case - check
Cash - get on the fuel/cookie run
