Right then here it is

I've sorted a Karting night out on Saturday 23rd February we'll be meeting at 4:00pm in Warrington.

The event starts at 5:00pm so best if we meet about 4:00pm

I've attached a map of directions to the circuit but I'll try and get a better one


The event will last 2 1/2 hours and will be timed and points given for every session jusy like an F1 event

There's a piccy of the Karts we'll be racing as well

I'll book the event then make arrangements with the circiut so you pay Personally

So who's gonna lift the first AONW Grand Prix winners trophy

Re: AONW Grand Prix

Job done, track position bought and paid for, during lunch (outside a chippy FAR too close to Eastlands for comfort).
See you all at the back of the grid on Saturday.

Al, they provide race suits, helmets and gloves as part of the package. IIRC the gloves tend to be crappy safety type gloves rather than driving ones.

Jeans and a T-shirt will be fine.

Everyone else please wear thick sweaters, and any chain mail vests you can get hold of. Failing that a suit of armour is very appropriate.

Re: AONW Grand Prix

For those 'slim Jims' with an unfair weight advantage, I've got some fins they could wear to help even things up....
