Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 We have been to PFI Karting at Stragglethorpe, Lincolnshire. It was bags of fun and maybe we should all go?? Even, initially, if it is just for the cafe with a viewing area that overlooks the track, we can go on race day and watch? It is the only international track in the country and is the home of Trent Valley Karting. We have spent the day with Paul Barnicoat, as in Ben's dad, if anyone knows Ben Barnicoat? he is, mm, not bad at Karting shall we say. For today it was Man vs Wife, but it sparked a debate of if I took the Westie on this track, by how much would it be slower than a Kart?? A good idea for the next Top Gear challenge don't you think? Pictures, of course, it's me, therefore, we have to have pictures 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxterrier Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Hi Julie, I race in the Civil Service Northern Karting Championships and we have a round at PFI on Sunday 27th March. Exact details (timings etc) TBC, but all are welcome to come along and watch, or maybe organise some racing after our event. :-) Steav. Or maybe organise something before 27th March. as I could do with the practise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Hi Steav, So that's Easter Sunday. It seems it starts at 11am with a 5 minute practice, followed by 2 sprints of 25 minutes and a trophy for the top 3 drivers. Sounds like it could be an eggciting day to come and cheer you on. Have you been on this track before? The corner after the bridge is the one to watch, over egg it and you get a good bone shaking on the red and white rumble strips.

foxterrier Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Hi Julie, No I haven't been on this track before. Last years race I was on holiday. :-( Have you had any interest from anyone regarding a WSCC outing?? Steav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
