i don't give a f*ck where we go as long as we go somewhere ...

So far we still only have 7 people .. what happened to the rest of you guys? Rallymad, robsta, Bamas .. yang? still coming?

Seems like the website is down, so I can't find out any details about the group packages at the moment, but I'll call Kingston Park Raceway & set up a booking .. I'll book it in for 10 people in case we get a few more people signing on for this thing .. that way we might get a discount or better deals..

Sam, are you able to send out an email to everyone in your little black book to give em the heads up?

Does 10am on Sunday suit everyone?

Just had a look on the Kingston website at the pricing.

if we want to use the biggest track (which is the only one worth going on) then the prices are as follows.

2 - 10 min sessions = $65
4 - 10 min sessions = $90
6 - 10 min sessions = $105

and the only kart available for this track is the best one which has a top speed of 90 km/h

for anyone who cbf looking on the website here's a layout of the track (blue one)

Sorry I won't be there all (Can't you read Mr Charisma, I'm pretty sure at least Rob and I have said why we can't make it ;) :lol: ) Have a great day all. I'm helping with the running of a car show up here so I won't make it. I'll try and post some pics maybe, for those that like old school and very tuff anyway.

aye, np mate ..sorry, just couldn't be bothered reading through it all again :P all i knew was that it was postponed a bunch of times to try & include everyone, so wondering why there weren't more takers..

Not able to make any bookings .. they need to be made 7 days in advance, but they said that if we rock up at 10am when they open, we shouldn't have any problems getting in..
