Cheers Steven.

Someone posted a link to one of the photos with Mr C in it over on sidepodcast.

I have spent the last two hours trying to get my computer to play sound so I am way behind on this.  I have read through some of the comments there on this subject.  Some of the comments seemed quite harsh but that is just the way it reads.  The attitude on that site is the same as here.  Everyone gets on well and there is never any aggro.  I think Scott Woodwiss's comment about you getting in trouble if you post the timing screen is him feeling guilty for pointing out the pic of Mr C.

This looked (and sounded) like a good event, we should defiantly arrange something similar for next year as we are now officially the defending champions.

Well done to all to attended and especially Scotty,Neil and Steven for their respective positions - way to go boys!  :good:

We all owe Ali a BIG thank you for coming up with the idea and for organising the event, if you're willing ALi then please feel free to contact me at anytime about next year. Thanks to Slugger for his superb pics.

Oh by the way, I have seen a few people mention about me trying to remain anonymous?? This isn't the case at all, my name used to be deleted by an over zealous moderator who seemed to want to shroud me in a cloak of secrecy, a bit like a super hero  ::).

It wasn't me deleting ^%^&*^%'s name,in fact to
prove he doesn't care about remaining anonymous he
gave me this picture of himself to post

No Dare, the moderator I'm talking about is from the very early days and is no longer a mod.

Thanks for the pic, its nice to see one of me looking happy!  :P

Wiz,

I can remeber your name appearing a few months ago then being changed to Wiz.  My understanding was that you wished to be anonymous.  Maybe it was just changed to make it clear who he was talking about.

You're both correct Steven & Dare, my name was changed a few months ago and this was due to a member panicking and sending out PM's.  ::)

At least my memory is still working.  Everything else hurts after karting on a bumpier track than Singapore.  I thought this morning I had cornered the world market in lactic acid.

We all owe Ali a BIG thank you for coming up with the idea and for organising the event, if you're willing ALi then please feel free to contact me at anytime about next year.

You can take it as read that there will be one next year - the track may have been narrow and bumpy, but it does have three things going for it:

a) the karts are fast and quiet
b) the organisers are great
c) it's the only kart track in Birmingham, which means it's the only choice for combining with Autosport International.

There may be other karting events at other times, but the next event to plan is a meet-up for Silverstone. I was thinking in terms of a few drinks and maybe a barbeque if we can find somewhere that allows it.
