LFS-Gathering 2012 (EU)
Dear European LFS Drivers,

As some of you might already know, is that I'm planning an European LFS gathering/meeting.

Since we are getting closer to June, I think it's about time to get public, and hope to get some interest...

I plan to organize it on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th of June 2012.

It will consist out of a gathering at Eindhoven Central Sation (Stationsplein 21, Eindhoven) to gather all of the people.

From there we will move on to De Vest 12, Valkenswaard (we need some people with cars to help us transport everyone)

Around 15:00 we will do a Grand Prix karting event at Indoor Karting de Vest.

This will consist out of a 10 minute practise, 10 minute qualifying, 10 minute race, and for the fastest six a very exciting 10 minute final. The top 3 will receive some cute trophies.

Than to move with the group to Maarheezerweg 1, Budel to gather together in a pub. Where at own costs drinks, fries and snacks can be purchased. We will stay in this location over the night because I have arranged a sleeping room. (Be sure to bring sleeping bags and a pillow)

The next morning we will be having fun at a one hour 2 team bowling event in the same location. The winning team will receive a free drink sponsored by Team Rock Racing.

The day will close approx. at 15:00 when everyone goes back home.



And than you've had the chance to meet and get to know, some of your fellow Live for Speed racers.

The attendance fee is not sure yet, as it depends on the number of attendees what the price will be.

At least we can say that it will maximum cost 55€ per person.

Reminder: Drinks and food, is at own costs.

It's not really a rip off I guess. Payments are for the karting and just a minor bit for the other location.

The fact that you seem to hate me and critize everything I do probably makes you say it's a rip-off.


For those who want to know how the prices can vary. Lets say we get in a group of 20 people. Than the attendance fee would be about: 38€

How is it a rip-off? 55 Euros is about £45, here it would be at least £20/25 for indoor karting, £5 for bowling leaving £15 for somewhere to sleep - that's nothing......
I jumper over the line "sleeping...", apologies.

Thanks for that reminder.

There are 2 dates in June on which both locations are possible.

16th and 17th
or
23rd and 24th

Which suits you all the best?
I can't come but still appreciate the effort and community building event.

Enjoy the sausage fest guys and share some pics and stories afterwards.
Too expensive, transports cost too much to get there, and 10min for a kart grand prix is total joke. However I like the type of idea, is it still possible to change for a more ambitious activity to make the trip worthy?

Well it's not just 10 minutes, it's 3 times 10 minutes, and a 10 min final for the best 6.

But indeed, maybe we could do something more exciting!

I'm all open for idea's, and also the date may still change, as it's not that close yet.

Please feel free to post some idea's on what to do.
ill be in poland for the euro's !
1 complete hour (minimum) of K1 kart (minimum) grand prix? (plus test and qualif sessions of course) OUTdoor (of course, and because rain is fun), or 3 hours endurance with teams?

What other things do you have in NL?

one would assume with traveling and most struggling with the recession that would be a tad bit pricey...


tbh, buy a s*** load of food + beer, find somewhere to fit you all and drink until you are best o' friends.
If I have to travel for hours to a foreign place, I would make sure that it is not for nothing, even if I must pay a lot. And when meeting with LFS friends, I expect to do something related to racing, not drunking and eating like a pig…
