Sorry to make this last minute change, but Richmond Kart Mania rang me today to confirm our booking, and told me it is a 1 hour booking for 8-12 people between 7 and 8pm, with another group having booked the place out from 8-10pm. I actually booked (or thought I had) a 2 hour slot for us, but the guy that took my booking must have stuffed it up somehow. What we can do instead is kart from 6pm-8pm, giving us 2 grand prix events, where we have 2 eventual winners and trophy holders.

SO

Intead of meeting at the meet place (that I have PM'd those that asked for it) for dinner at 5:30pm, can we please still meet there and we will cruise straight to Richmond for karting (we can grab a burger there at Hungry Jacks for a snack to last us until dinner).

THEN after karting do we want to go somewhere for late dinner around town/near Richmond somewhere (which will work out better for down South people anyhow I would think).

Again, sorry for the stuff up but it is beyond my control.

So is everyone OK with that? Either meet at the North-Eastern spot I PM'd to people at 5:30pm, or meet us directly at Richmond at 6pm.

I will PM this info to everyone on the attendee list also.

Andrew

ive asked andrew to pm me the meeting place at 5:30 through sms but if he doesnt get this message can someone who knows the location send me a message - 0424082939 as that would be greatly appreciated.

We split into 2 random groups for 2 grand prix.

All up MattR won his group and Sambo and I tied for winner of the 2nd group (on a points basis over qualifying and 4 races). I think the best time of the day was MattR with a 21.19.

Thanks to all that came, we had 17 racers all up, which was a healthy turnout. We went to Vili's for tea afterwards, then most of us continued on to MattR's for his Birthday bash. The darts and 8-ball were great as always - as was the wooded Jamesons - owww my head this morning!

The next major event is likely to be paintballing at a venue TBA. I would think we might do this in June or July, weather permitting.

Paintballing would be wicked. The one down at Blackwood past the Barasso on the way to Gawler have good maps especially the capture the flag one. The only problem is the dirt road of 5kms, its ok for one car to drive slow, but the cars following it will have stuffed up air filters and a new car colour.

Yeap good night all round, thanks Andrew for organising it, Matty for the post-event drinking venue, and Will for playing taxi driver (love that LS1 grunt) so more of us could :O

:werd:

Yeah, top night out! Big thanks to Andrew, Matt & Will! looking forward to the next one! :(

Cheers,

Sam

    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
