TTR 509 Report post Posted August 3, 2016 So since a few members in and around MK are popping up these days, would anybody fancy doing some sort of Karting meet at Daytona in Milton Keynes in a few weeks? I started a similar thread about doing it at SimplyRace and it got quite a bit of interest, but I think Karting may be a tad more fun . If not, we can just do the traditional Cars & Coffee Type meet! Interest list: 1. TTR - Saturday DMAX 2. DanJ - Saturday DMAX 3. Keethos - Saturday DMAX 4. Steeps - Sunday Sodi/Saturday DMAX 5. Knighty 6. GT86-Ian 7. Twigman 8. Will300 - Saturday DMAX/Sunday Sodi 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTR 509 Report post Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) Do any of these dates work out for anyone? *EDIT* Dates changed due to me not being aware that TSS is on the same weekend as my original suggestion Friday 12th Saturday 13th Sunday 14st Edited August 4, 2016 by TTR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeps 294 Report post Posted August 4, 2016 Fine for karting, would rather do a longer race than heats. Can't do that weekend as it's Toyota Sprint in Anglesey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTR 509 Report post Posted August 4, 2016 So we have a choice of 2 Karts. DMAX or Sodi. DMAX is about 5 seconds a lap faster than the Sodi. DMAX has a proper 125cc race engine, decent tyres and Brakes. Sodi is basically the Kart equivalent of a primacy tyre. However, DMAX usually works out around £15 more expensive than Sodi. But in my opinion it's totally worth it! I think @smudge will testify to that. There's a DMAX Sprint (10 Minute Qualifying, 20 minute race) on Saturday the 13th at 18:15. £62.50pp or there's a D-Sprint (Sodi Karts, same format as above) on Sunday the 14th at 17:30. £47.50pp. Will try and see if I can get a discount on the pricing as it'll be a group booking.

TTR 509 Report post Posted August 4, 2016 Just an extra thought. Would anyone like to grab a bite to eat after? @DanJ suggested Ye Olde Swan. The menus look pretty damn tasty and I think he mentioned that they had a decent sized car park! http://www.chefandbrewer.com/pub/ye-olde-swan-woughton-on-the-green-milton-keynes/c0156/ 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
