Humm...

Tell me more.

But before we start, lets not do the Raceway in Bristol. Their marshaling is questionable as I got black flagged when I was down there last. And yes I am still bitter.

Why don't we have a poll to pick a date for karting (in Cardiff)?

November 10th will do ;) I'll go out on the **** after that then....

depending if theres rugby on in Cardiff that weekend.... if there is, then Cardiff will be a tad busy to say the least!

too far away IMO

are we wanting a weekday night, or a weekend?

i was thinking of a week-night?

imo you should set a 2 week window and open it up. (I.E. 7-21st September) and get random prices for both newport and cardiff and see what people think. Personally the 'port will be better.

My bike may not be on the road by the time this gets sorted, hence why I would prefer Cardiff.... the karting place is about 3 minutes away from Cardiff Central train station... so even those from far away lands may be able to come over, have a go at killing fellow karters, and go for a pint afterwards...

plus, if we do go for september, two weekends will have rugby games on.. so south wales in general will be chock o'block....

Delay taking the bike off the road a while (unless you really need to), at least till the weather gets cold anyway. You could do Fartfest then as well.

I hear the track at newport is bigger but cardiff has more options for an evening out afterwards.

I paid £35 ish quid for Cardiff.. and that was a 90 minute race... there were 3 in our team, so we all got about 30min of racing each....

Cardiff it is then :D

Sounds good to me, but please not the first Friday of the month :D

Cue Sarah to say "Right, first Friday of the month at Newport it is, then!"
