Venue for the day Sunday 23rd July 2-2.30pm Location A5 Truck Stop M1 Junction 9, head NORTH up the A5. You will see a Holiday Inn Hotel on the left (shown on the map), up on the right is a shell garage. Just before the shell garage is a large truck stop, this is the meeting place. 3.30pm Drive Up the A5, I've yet to work this one out, but basically will be straight up the A5, onto a lot of dual carriageways around milton keynes and then to the karting, I wil ltry and do a map later for this. , last time there were quite a few as it turned into a bit of a race to get there the quickest The run is straightforward, up the A5 to Milton Keynes then turn right onto the A509, at the next roundabout turn left, and then up another dual carriageway, and then again left at the next roundabout as seen in this map. About 300yds on the left is the entrance to Daytona. A5 to Daytona Karting 430-5pm Arrive at Daytona Milton Keynes Karting. Location Milton Keynes Karting Time to park, and then to enter Daytona, and get suited up for debriefing 515pm Debriefing at Daytona 6pm Grand Prix event, 10 minute practice and then time trial for qualifying Then a 40 minute sprint race, all cars out on the track at the same time 7pm Session ends, more tyre kicking and looking under bonnets, and examining tail pipes Daytona Karting Daytona Karting International Circuit Circuit map Joe

Given that we will be wearing race suits i take it the thinest clothes possible. Shorts tshirt and light trainers?

Anonymous Unregistered A	Sub event, Civic_Legend is to arm wrestle suba, I'm the promotor for this event. Civic is the un-defeated local champion, suba is the modern day king kong. Can Civic tame the beast? Suba is naturally the bookies favourite. Place your bets now! Other available bets include 'how many karts shabba will break' - I managed 2 last time I went. I'm sure I saw a sticker on one 'toys r us kids kart, ages 4-7'.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Is that because she is 'riding' with me Neil thanks for the head up - I think we should miss most of the roadworks as we'll be using the A5. Ken its not my fault you didnt post it 2 days ago and dont use me as an excuse for why you got worried about everyone finding out about your karting skills Nobby, Sal isnt coming. Cant wait must try and clean the car before Sunday.
