edit Its now booked for Saturday 2nd August 5PM start (event starts at 5.30pm)

I've organising a Karting event at three sisters in Wigan for saturday 2nd August at 5pm for a group of friends and I thought I'd envite you lot.

I need a minimun of 15 people for the event to go ahead (should easy get this without briskoda) but the maximum allowed is 40 so the more the merrier.

Race format

Its a Grand Prix Plus event.

You get:

5 minutes practice

3 x 6 minute Quailfying heats

7 minute final (Their are 2 final races, all the drivers will be split into two groups. Each group has a 7 minute final. eg 10 fastest in 1 group, 10 slowest in the other)

The karts are 160cc x2 and are capable in the rigth conditions of reaching 65mph.

Cost is £55 each if your interested let me now asap.

Refund policy

Depends. I need to pay for a minimun of 15 drivers. So if we have 15 drivers and someone backs out no refund will be given as I need to pay for a minimun of 15 drivers.

If however we have 25 drivers and someone backs out a refund will be given as we're past the 15 minimum.

Please add your name(s) in a list order if you are 100% interested/available for the above date. If their is interest I will post payment methods eg in person, paypal etc.

Now I've never been to Three Sisters (seriously) so I can't comment but I've been to Speedkarting a few times as have a few friends and this time we fancy something a little different so we're giving Three Sisters a go.

Now I've never been to Three Sisters (seriously) so I can't comment but I've been to Speedkarting a few times as have a few friends and this time we fancy something a little different so we're giving Three Sisters a go.

IMHO it's a nice track - not done karting on it but it's fun in a car, so should be even better in something smaller and lighter.

Potentially interested, just need to check schedules!

Rob.

I'd have loved to do that but i'm at the Nurburgring then

Please do another one sometime as i'd be down there like my hair was on fire. I've done sprint racin at three sisters in a Pug 205 GTI and the track looked perfect for Karts - a bit small for real cars in my opinion but god fun.

I'd be happy to swap

3 sisters is a lovely little track, some good viewing area's to. I have spent plenty of time skidding on my **** down it when falling off my supermoto.

I will come along and watch and take some pics as I will be up at Lowton anyway with the kid's horse riding.

I'm interested and I'm fairly sure my brother and a few others will be as well. How many spare places have you got?

Got loads of spare places. currently got 10 people (max can be 40), waiting for others to get back to me so feel free to invite others.

Oooo go on then

1. Neo_VR (more of a karting noob than faboka)

Oh and heres that pic of me last time i was there

Bump

Come on people anyone else up for it. With any luck it might be a wet track

I'd be up for it.

Am asking my mate and double checking I havent got anything else that weekend.

No worries

2. tdirob & 4/5 others

How much karting has everyone done before? Should I be worried about being the 'fat lad at the back':O

To be honest I've got a mix bunch of people going. Ranging from very little to very competetive

Bump

Everyone else interested?

Me & 3 fs jnr might be interested. He's in America at the moment though. I'll send him a text to see if he's up for it and I'll let you know.

Add you to the list Al.

Anymore? One week left till I have to give final numbers.

Lol.. ive currently got me + 4 others... possibility of more, should know by the end of the week

List updated. Only 2 places left.

Just checked BBC weather.

Heavy Showers

Should be fun.

Looking forward to it

Just got back... despite the predicted rain and the rain in manchester it was actually glorious on the track!

Some very hotly contested racing.... it all went wrong for me in the final race when i was shunted and Tboned because of someone spinning out... it fecking hurt!

Thanks to John for organising.

Thanks to everyone for coming hope you all had a good time! Thankfully the rain stayed away as it would have made the track really slippy.

It was my first time at three sisters only ever done indoor karting before now but I really enjoyed the track despite their being a couple of tricky corners to master.

Gutted I was pushing a little to hard in the final and threw it all away.

Well done Phil for coming 1st! Shame your not allowed to come to the next one

SWMBO has taken loads of pics just uploading them now so will post the link later.

Thanks again looking forward to the next one lol

John
