East Meet with Go Karting - (Newmarket) Saturday May 11th

Well I may or may not be able to make this. As per usual with the GT6 a simple job (changing the front pads) is not quite as simple as it should have been.

The plan was to get it all sorted over last weekend but the bleed valve on the calipers had seized and wouldn't unscrew. It has taken 2 days of applying gas oil to release them and I won't have time now to fit the new pads till Saturday morning. So I may arrive or I may not, it all depends if the car throws another spanner in the works :p

Fit the pads and forget the bleeding for another day.
 
Does large amounts of gaffa tape keeping the GoPro on the helmet count as "well secured"?

No idea!

I thought it was more of people with their own helmets and the helmet mount kits or some kind of handlebar kit attached to the frame of the kart.
 
Anyone going from Woking area for the karting and the pub afterwards? Howard, I'm looking at you here! The Elise is still in MANY pieces and it doesn't seem worth bringing the Bora so I'm willing to go halves on petrol for a nicer ride :)
 
As I have both a GoPro and a Contour helmet cam, I think I shall try the GoPro as a rearward facing camera... Should capture most of you! ;)

If I go (most likely) then I'm going to be going in mrk's car I'm afraid :o
 
Are you on the same route? If so I don't mind picking you up on the way too!
 
Have you booked the pub? It gets a bit busy on Saturdays especially as there is an event at Snetterton. Think you can book a bar table if people don't want restaurant/ carvery.
 
Think I have to bail out of this :(

Got tomorrow off work now and need to move tomorrow instead of Saturday.

Plan was to load the van up, come to karting and then drive up north but now I'm going tomorrow.

Sorry :(
