Parking outside the stately home for photo's might be a good idea

And yes, the sounds of a Police siren whilst convoying was slightly unnerving!

Sounds like a great idea.

Sound like you all had a good time.

There's a karting place just outside beccles?

The Evo interceptor with its blues going was funny - especially from far enough back to be certain it wasn't for me . I wonder what the poor innocents/thieving chav scum had done to deserve their attention.

Is there an out door karting track in East Anglia? I'm happy to organise a session and meet. I could use my legendary weather powers to ensure that we have..er.. *interesting* weather.

can any one tell me where was that statley home? as ieven had to slow down to look.

Audley End my other house (the small one in the country)

Why thank you! Nothing that several hundred hours couldn't achieve on any Coupé

Apart from the fact that the engine bay was really tatty.

Possibly not the smartest thing I've ever done But was good fun!



Guys, there is an outdoor karting track near Newmarket CLICK

And if Pilgrim organises it, we're guaranteed plenty of thrills and spills as it's bound to be pouring with rain

Jas - any chance of seeing some vids?

Patience my fellow Coopster...

What's with all the Pilgrim-bashing by the way everyone? Oh yeah, just read his comment about my engine bay, now I see

I have a bit of a reputation for being something of an anti weather god. This was about an hour before I left for an FCCUK barbecue last summer:



Not to mention taking every body to the coast "to get some good pictures" in the fog/mist.

So there's some justification for Pilgrim baiting

I've had a look at the Kart tracks near Newmarket and Beccles (which are run by the same company) it looks as though 30 - 40 laps (the track is 1.2 km) will cost between £40 and £50. The indoor track is £265 per hour for exclusive use (they will let up to 8 karts on the track at the same time.)

I'll let you do initial comments here then start a new thread if we're serious about this.

OK - vids...(sorry some are a bit shakey!)

Nice work Jas

Love all the brake squeal in the last couple of vids

Yeah it just wouldn't be "authentic" without it!

there is two go cart tracks at newmarket on the same junction! (opposite sides of the dual)

Red lodge on one side
Wild tracks on the other.

I've been to both recetly, both are very good fun. both about 50 second laps.

The one at Beccles is run by the same people that used to run the Indoor Go Cart Centre in Norwich.
Personally i think the ones above are better tracks.

What do others think to a bit of go karting fun?

i would just like to thank pilgrim for the best sig picture i have ever had

cheers

even had a pm about it

Wild Tracks Website.

I have also done both, when I was a little slimmer

the karting sounds like great fun

cheers Jas

and i told that crazy old man in the blue coat not to wee up my back wheel.......no idea who he was

not recently then

Frary I need to admit something.....
Following you back the whole was very enjoyable because your car looks so good I was just going "mmm" the whole way!

Now looking for a red 20vt to join the collection!

Emmie enjoying Frary's rear is one thing. Admitting to it though.....

Ha ha oh dear. I'm far too innocent for this place!

But speaking of rear, I am glad you were following me for a while as you got some awesome photos of my car, so thank you

I will remember to bring my camera next time so I can repay the favour!

Not me - the photographer was my 13 year old David Bailey. I'll pass your thanks on to him. He was having a good time!

Well you cheeky B.............
