Hi,

I have been looking for a venue for an event for those of us in the Beds/Bucks/Herts/Northants, and hit upon the idea of contacting the Daytona Karting Centre here in Milton Keynes.

They can offer a variety of events up to full use of the kartting track, as shown below:

"Regarding the kart racing, with 30-50 drivers, I would recommend a Team Endurance Race.

Please find attached an event proposal that I have prepared for you, with information and prices on the exclusive race formats that would suit your group, plus recommended extras which may be added, to complete your exciting experience.

We provide all necessary race gear, exclusive use of our renowned 1200m International Circuit, standard trophies for the top 3 teams, individual lap-time printouts for everyone and commemorative photos to capture the moment."

I've attached the brochures to the message so I'd be interested to see what level of interest there is - but obviously there is reasonable cost to run this sort of event.

Let's see what sort of response there is and if worth it I can progress it more

Yep, Shell V-Power every time for me also, with BP Ultimate if if I get caught away from a Shell station

Hi Colin,

We will almost certainly be there, great timing too, the week before my (big number) birthday!

Hi All,

Sorry for being a bit remiss in not checking your responses more often.

I'll put this up on the FB page as well to see if we get a few more responses - since we've had responses form MK, Leighton Buzzard and Cambs, I'll have a think about a central venue, to include Northampton as well as I know at least one person there would be interested.

Hi all,

It has been suggested on the FB page that we should try and arrange a few more meets, local to our areas, to keep the social side of the club going.

I've offered to see whether there are enough of us in the areas shown in the title to make a local meet a viable option - I know of a couple - Chris Church, Malou - but now sure how many more there are

Let me know if you're in that sort of area, or are willing to travel to somewhere in that area for a local meet

I'm in Milton Keynes

Regards

Graeme

Thanks for the info - I remember it looked great on the back of you car at Brands Hatch, and yes it's gonna be for a picnic hamper

Edit - I just checked on their UK website but the one shown fitted to a Fiat 500 is different to yours; it looks like I would have to remove the Abarth badge to fit it as there are no vertical bars clipped on to the boot like yours.

I'll investigate further!

Do we go in via the side entrance as we did last year?

We should be there as we're in Canterbury the night before and it's on our way home-ish
