30min race

£35 and you get a jacket potato to warm your cockles!

Did the endurance race at Buckmore Park last year. The more money you raise the further up the grid you start. Think we raised just under £1000 so started first.

Think there was 6 of us, Two slots of 15mins. By the time we finished it was pitch black! Got a vid on youtube of it somewhere but cant get on it at work.

Thruxton is quite good actually, esp the main straight (curve) all the way round to start finish line.

Buckmore has a really nice little hill that most people loose bottle on though so you make a huge amount of time and go round the outside of them at the bottom on the left hander.

Lydds cool, but never been there, but its location is great.

Buckmore is fantastic as it isnt flat

Lydd is just down the road from my old house, I don't remember it being there back when I lived nearby.

There are loads of land fill sites around Lydd and old quarrys that have been filled in, that's probably why it's surrounded by water, bottom of that water is a load of nuclear waste from Dungerness, if you fall in you will come out glowing.

I want to go karting with you lot, but go somewhere, where people don't have the advantage of hundreds of laps experience
