Carlos, wind your neck in mate and stop being a fairy - sat was great fun and we all enjoyed it. The circuit was absolutely fine and i dont remember saying the circuit was shite?? I couldnt give a flying fuck where we go next, indoor or outdoor - i was simply making a "suggestion" - something you seem to have a problem with of late for some unknown reason - maybe its the Paypal situation thats put you in a bit of strop or its your time of the month or your swine flu jab?? But dont start bleeting on about me and Baris being negative - we both had a great time and neither of us have any issue with being beaten by much better karters on the day. Youve raced karts for many years in the past and have an advantage over most of us. Come with me to any circuit on a race bike and ill show you the same thing. I personally have absolutely no issue being beaten by a better person on the day and i was very pleased with how i drove overall taking everything into consideration. I thought the karts were slow and old but then in the wet we couldnt have used any more power anyway. I was more than happy with the track and dont remember saying anything negative about the track to you?? If i did then it was in jest. I was simply trying to offer some other options to include other members. Im now genuinely looking forward to the next meet even more, wherever the hell it turns out to be!!!!!

I'd vote for the indoor one as a january meet in the sopping cold, and then in march or april we'll do Buckmore.
Thoughts?

Baris and i are going down to try out Edmonton tomorrow at 1pm. It is an indoor circuit but it looks like quite an impressive set up so we shall see. I will get Baris to give his honest opinion and account of it incase im seen as being biased for any reason. As ive said before, in terms of karting venue, personally im up for any place, any time and pretty much any where.

Sorry buddy, im still here in Mexico and not had much internet access etc. I was hoping Baris might post something up about the karting in edmonton?? Maybe he's still licking his wounds after i nailed him on every session!!! To be honest it wouldbt be suitable for a group meet BUT we did have a lot of fun. Circuit was a little too short - lap record was about 26 secs and i was lapping in 27 secs - so it wasnt engaging enough etc. But the place was new and fresh, karts new and unabused, staff very friendly etc. Personally i am hanging out to go to Buckmore Park and i think that needs to be our next venue.
