MattyB Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Just to say thanks to everyone for an excellent day - especially Steve for organising. Me and Rich (my mate who tagged along) really enjoyed it. Highlights? Steve nudging me off on the my final race, denying me a place in the final...I'll get you next time But by far the best bit was me jostling with Scott after Steve overtook - the rivalry finally making its way to the track For two laps we were side by side, overtaking and undertaking, fighting for the line.... .......but on the last and most important bend, he just got in the lead All in all, a most enjoyable day. Good to finally meet some of you and put faces to names. Roll on the next one. Cheers again! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wuddie Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Yeah Great day, Thanks to Steve C for organising it. Hopefully more of those style events to come in the future as well as the standard Road Runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Gosh, I do look orange. Thanks again to Steve. There's some quick drivers in MLOC - should be able to give NORLOG a run for their money - I'll have to arrange something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foley Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Thx Steve for a fantastic day. Had some great tussles with my mate Rob and Graeme, lots of laughs. Was good to put some faces to names. Well done Jimbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm glad everyone enjoyed themselves! It was one of the best places i have been to as well - a repeat next year would fit well into the calendar. Well done Jimbo! A well deserved win! But I have scores to settle next time - with my so-called friend who punted me off the track in the final so my 3rd place position became 5th! Where are the marshalls when you need them???? Looking forward to the MLOC / NORLOG challenge and the runs starting up in the spring again!!! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted January 12, 2004 Author Share Posted January 12, 2004 How about an MLOC Summer Cup at Birmingham Wheels? Outdoor track, twice the size, and I say we have the proper twin engined, disc-braked 80mph karts - sort the men from the boys, and all that Costs more though - I think if there are 18 of you, for a few practise laps, followed by some qualifying laps, followed by the "grand prix" (all 18 of you on track for 20 loooong minutes) works out to about £50 each. Just a suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiona Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I have a bruised hip after my wipe out - well that's my excuse for not going to the gym tonight . Great fun - definitely do it again. Thanks for organising it Steve. Fiona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Mac Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Was indeed great... i had a few good tussles with some folks - especially the one with Matty I got a bit screwed over in some of the heats, always seeming to have at least 3 of the eventual finalists in Still i had a great time and my g/f who started off a bit scared was having a great time by the end of it... sliding all over the palce and some nice blocking etc Next time can we do the one with the semi final too - was apparantly only £5 extra and would be pretty cool i reckon.
