It's back - Outdoor Pro Karting @ Three Sisters Racetrack

[Scottie - NW]

In May this year we formed two teams from PH NW area to take part in a a proper Twin Engined Outdoor Karting Event at the Three Sisters Racetrack, just off the M6 J24/25.

It was very enjoyable, there where a few teams from other like minded car clubs, we even had two of this years Time Attack companies enter, including a few Time Attack drivers, plus a mixture of novices, two teams from St Helens Council etc.

The same people are holding another evening, same format as the last one, and have invited us from PH to join them again if we would like to.

Please let me know if you are interested in this. :-)

That's a good point, I'll check if there are concessions available at the Three Sisters ;-)

[rs4am]

is there a minimum age for this ?

a couple of friends of mine would also like to come along /
will this be ok ?

[ode]

I'm trying to get a team together for this, should be a right laugh :-)

I'm pretty sure the minimum age is 16, but if you are below 18 you need an adult to sign your indemnity form.

Can all those wanting to do this event post up quickly, so we can assess whether to let non PHers in. I would think we could stretch our two teams to three of four if we had the numbers and pay the deposit on time etc. :-)

[buggalugs]

Aww, go on then I'll have another go. Let me know how & when you want paying?

[jaik]

Assuming I can get the day off work (shouldn't be a problem) I'll be up for this I'll check with the boss tomorrow.

[rs4am]

cant wait for this it will be my second time on go karts ,by chance i already know of a few of my friends who are already going to the same event.

Just in case people hadn't realised, the M6 junction for Three Sisters isn't 34/35! More like 25... just so folks don't go up to Carlisle expecting to see some karting

Come off at J25, right at the roundabout and its signed from there.. minutes away.

hth

(apologies if someone has already pointed this out/gran -> suck eggs scenario)

It was an observation test, congratulations on being the only entrant to pass ;-)

[Scottie - NW]

I'll get a list going as it's essential we have multiples of 4 people to form the teams.

1. rs4am
2. Kirsty SC
3. Flatpack Dave
4. Snapper8v
5. Ode
6. Buggalugs
7. Jaik
8. Boghouse

Please add or remove yourself from the list as required. If you are going to bring extra's can you add them to the list as

9. Ode extra
10. Ode extra

for example so we can see the total numbers. Obviously friends can go in your own teams and then we can put everyone else left into teams.

Is everyone happy with this, can you think of a better way etc?

Cheers,
Scott.
