Club Arnage Go-Karting Event

Would there be any interest in an event like this.  Thinking somewhere in the home counties and around about March or April next year?

Yup, good idea FS.

There's a number of indoor tracks in the London area or the large outdoor 1.2 km track at Buckmoor Park near to Chatham / Maidstone.

Buckmore is the dog's knackers, you won't find many finer kart tracks in Europe.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Buckmore looks quality. Certainly beats the ass off the Le Mans death carts!!!

I like the idea, but do they do any for fat blokes? It's like driving a singer sewing machine round unless your 3 stone or less :(

Its all down to power to weight ratios, and I'm at a distinct disadvantage usually.  And I'm fed up with Karts where you can only get one cheek in the seat

I might be away during some of March (dare I mention Sebring?) but would definitely be interested.

I’ll get in contact with Buckmore and get some more details from them,  April, looks a good time and see what else we can plan in, who knows we may be able to get the DfH guys over as well and have an evening together.

Ballast, lorry, don't worry about size, it's something I’ve always suffered with and I might be able to come up with a "fair" handicapping system.  Especially if pro drivers are being entered.


we may need some tropicoma!!

There were carts being run at the Marham Track Day, I think that mark is planning on running two events a year. Earlier he was thinking of March/April so maybe the two events could tie together especially if the international CA contingent are going to make an apperance.
