2nd F1 Bloggers and Friends Karting Competition
« on: September 08, 2009, 11:29:12 AM »
After the success of last year's competition, I'm organising a second running of the F1 Bloggers and Friends Karting Competition.

It's on Saturday January 16 2010, which is the Saturday evening of Autosport weekend. The start time is 6pm, so please try to arrive before 5.45pm if at all possible.

Full details can be found in the above link.

The price is £50 per karter (pay via Paypal) and Free per spectator. All entries and payment will be due by 30 November 2009 to allow plenty of time to give exact numbers. Please e-mail me at alianora. lacanta @ yahoo . co . uk (removing spaces) to enable me to invoice/confirm you.

Hiya Ali, I'm sure I'll be able to scrape some money together for this event. :good:

I'll be there...let's see if we can come up with some ideas for a bit of socializing before and/or after.  Last year a few of us went for a beer at the bar about 20m away...good fun.  A few also met for a bite beforehand by Newstreet...also nice to chat and plan race strategy  ;) .  Anyone who wants to do that would be welcome.  Being based in Switzerland I would prefer if someone else suggest the eating venue, but I suggested to Ali that if anyone is going to the show on Saturday, maybe we could meet 4:30-5pm somewhere near Teamworks for a quick energy boost.  Last year I went to Autosport on Sunday which worked better for me since I arrived on Saturday (and my EasyJet flight was 3hrs late).

This year I think I'll try to sneak away on Friday and come back Monday so I'm not so stressed for the race.  I'll be staying at the Newstreet Ibis Hotel.

I hope a lot of you guys come...although the small turnout last year meant we had more kart time.

PS - I never saw any breathalizers, so although they might boot you for being obviously drunk, you could probably have a beer with lunch.

I would definitely have come again and driven this time but unfortunately this is the day after my wife's birthday and I have a feeling we may be elsewhere (skiing maybe).
