    Smile 24/5/15 RTOC World Karting Championship North West

    As per the last few years I have organised another event of fun for us! Same place as before and same price - £45.00 per driver. This is a full Grand Prix event on an MSA outdoor track - very fast! It includes heats and a final. Theres a trophy for the top 3 drivers.

    Track info is http://www.hootonparkcircuit.co.uk/

    I have paid the deposit so the rest will need to pay the circuit on the day. You don't need to bring anything with you as the circuit will provide race4 suits and a helmet

    THE EVENT START AT 13:30 on 24/5/15 - PLEASE BE THERE FOR 13:00 AT THE LATEST FOR THE BRIEFING. I will be there earlier.

    Any questions please let me know.

    Attendees;

    1, Alex
    2, Brendan
    3, Stewy

    Re: 24/5/15 RTOC World Karting Championship North West

    I just have to drop the oil tonight and put some decent stuff in and give it a good clean. Might go out and do a bit of boost setting up. It's still set at 24psi need to drop it down to 20 as this lump is higher comp than my last so might not be to happy with big boost. Plus its only done about 3 miles so I'm bound to get some teething issues.

    I'm really looking forward to it tho gents A decent run out in the five and some karting to boot. I will have to warn you all tho, I look like a proper aids victim. The crohn's has been kicking my head in for a good few weeks now and it's stripped even more weight off me. If that's possible

    So what I'm trying to say is less weight = faster kart!!

    now the bloody clio wont start. had a issue last week where it would not see the key just kept a red flashing light after a few try's and it was fine had it checked and no faults were found no this morning just keeps flashing its red light thing is both keys are doing the same thing. so might have to give this a miss. gutted as the wet weather would have made things a bit more interesting.

    Something I didn't mention to anyone....... Since I've been doing these events I've been bringing along my brother in law, Brendon. It became our little yearly thing we did together. He's also been to ND with me.

    Unfortunately Brendon died suddenly on the 25/3/15. So I'd like to dedicate my little win to him. While we were karting I was actually carrying a little bag of his ashes on me. Here he is finishing 2nd to Phil last year
