Archetype Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Were there many peeps who turned up to the Cock and Bull? I'll get along to one of the pub meets one day, but I've just got a bit much going on at the moment. So was it just me and Markku who had the compulsory kart swaps (x3)/shitty karts?

japawagons Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I had one kart swap due to exploding brakes... Much fun, cheers Yowzer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Daytona next time. Was 12 people at cock and balls Brent. Probably our best turn out in a year or more, but it does make for an expensive evening for everyone. Yowzer/whoever else that's keen, we should catch up for some beers at mine to come up with a few ideas for new, cheap meet options that more people will be keen for.

Cheap is good, as I do not feel like paying $20 for a small plate of wedges again. Maybe a Hell Pizza meat again sometime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Last time I was at full throttle we had about 8 failures. Steering, brakes, fuel line, random stoppages. Their days are numbered I'm told.... Closing their doors any day now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikuni Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Their days are numbered I'm told.... Closing their doors any day now.Markku asked them about this. I don't know if the guy was just trying to put a postive spin on them closing down, but he said they are looking at an outdoor venue and purchasing a new fleet of karts. Will be interesting to see how it pans out. They are certainly lacking now, but when it was running right full throttle was by far the best karts I've been to.lol.. beaten.

Yowzer Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Never discussed Nats Plans.. Haha yeah true. Oh well, we'll have another meet. Last time I was at full throttle we had about 8 failures. Steering, brakes, fuel line, random stoppages. Their days are numbered I'm told.... Closing their doors any day now. Yep we had a fair few kart failures too. They're ditching their current karts and upgrading to much better ones, by the sounds of it they're gonna be quicker too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toucan Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Me an Markku reckon this is the go: http://www.kartingrotorua.co.nz/off-road-nz/raceline-karting_idl=3_idt=3726_id=21579_.html expensive, but proper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be cool as a one off, but for a regular thing I would probably rather pay less to get more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
