    Christmas Karting! 20/12/2015 Exeter

    So, I have provisionally booked this for 20/12/15 1700 at Raceworld in Exeter.

    Ideally it'd be 12 of us, as that's how many karts they have... but there's a format they can run to get more of us racing if we can find more people!

    This is the place:

    Raceworld Ltd
    Unit 4, Greendale Business Park
    Sidmouth Road, Woodbury Salterton
    Nr Exeter, Devon
    EX5 1EW

    http://www.raceworld-karting.co.uk/p...track-in-devon

    It'll be £45 per person based on a Super Prix. This includes:

    10 mins practice
    10 mins qualifying
    20 lap final race (also around 10 minutes)

    We'll be there for a little over an hour if there's just 12 or less of us, if more than 12 we'll run it in 2 groups taking turns and be a little longer, but not too much.

    I need to get a deposit from people to book this. The deposit is 50% payable by 14/10/15, the balance is due on the day.

    I'll update the thread with who is going, if they've paid, and also a good place for a meal afterwards once I have found a good place...

    If people want to come to watch the karting and then to join us for the meal that also will work nicely - or indeed just come straight for food!

    Any questions let me know and I'll try to help.

    I have asked around and the date seemed good, and to save missing out I put a provisional booking in - if we need to move the date we can, but ideally lets stick with this one!

    I got a gentle reminder about this today from the Karting place...

    If people fancy this I have until the end of the week to come up with the pennies for a deposit.

    Any chance of a show of hands please people?

    You know the drill, copy+paste adding yourselves to the list...

    If we aren't going, I'll do a quick survey of where everybody is based, then find a nice eatery near the largest number as that seems fairest, and we'll just all go and festively fill our faces

    So as I have failed as our rep and not got enough people signed up in time to get deposits and book our slot, this is going to be cancelled for now.

    I'll be sending out PMs in the next couple of days to see what we can do in terms of getting some attendees - so watch this area for a new thread!

    Thanks all

    I can be flexible with dates, but would love to get the chance for karting at some point. Is the specific date the reason some folks haven't replied? If so, please post up days to avoid, other suggestions etc and we may be able to reschedule. Come on guys, "get involved", as the saying goes.

    I shall send out a mass PM at the weekend, see who we can get involved

    If we can get karting alive, we will!

    The reason it hasn't is that it hasn't had any feedback, positive or negative, from enough people.

    Christmas Meal - Take 2 - The poll!

    So with the festive period approaching, it's time for a Christmas gathering!

    It'd be great to gather some good numbers, perhaps bring out some new people as well as familiar faces

    Please indicate which date would suit you best.

    As Karting was a bit of an ask for more than a few of us, we're going to limit this to just a meal - hopefully have some karting next year!

    So please vote for which date would suit best, and put a post up with any useful reasoning I may have overlooked for why some days may be better than others.

    The venue will be this one:

    The Grandstand Beefeater Restaurant
    Newton Rd, Newton Abbot TQ12 3AF

    The plan will be to meet at 1900 on the date chosen, assuming good numbers.

    I have a backup plan should we not get the numbers, but hopefully that shouldn't be needed!

    5th, 6th or 20th are the only days I could do. 20th might be a squeeze with my other plans.
