That my dear (much improved shirt wearer) legal eagle is perhaps something
you may regret ever posting
You looked great in the photos-stay away from the banana tree shirts and anything which requires a volume control-always go for understated.
Wtf was that flowery number SYB had on?

Re: Pampas Green Grass BBQ
The whole thing was a nightmare.we had to go back through twice because they didnt put an exit visa stamp on.They wouldnt let us leave.when we tried going back in he told us to go somewhere else and get a bit of paper stamped..still wouldnt let us out.By this time im screeming...with a hangover.Hence I proceed to make SF's life a misery and we end up not speaking all the way home..great day.

Needs a bit of looking into, to enquire exactly what they do over there. If we could get enough people interested, we may be able to hire the circuit for a couple of hours, rather than 20mins or so, and organise a knock out type competition. Get the AD guys up as well, should be a good crack, we could call it the first annual BE Karting Competition with a trophy for the eventual winner and a flat tyre for the person with the worst lap time!

Yep, karting favours the short'n'skinny - that's a few seconds per lap in my favour already!!
Not sure yet! When is good for you?

Most tracks will also run team-based events - you set a time, say 2 hours, and the team with the most laps at the end wins. You change drivers every 5 to 15 mins or so - TBH, you would need to be superfit to drive more than 20 mins in a stint, especially in this heat.....
Probably best to start another thread on here, see if we can drum up enough interest!
Good thing is they also do evening sessions under floodlights which would probably suit most of us better. I will bring some concrete blocks to weigh down the skinnies karts!

Your right, endurance events do tend to level things a little. We used to do hour long races back home, piece of cake in the wet, but after an hour in a kart, I sometimes had to be removed from the Kart as I couldn't move! Your weight will help, but whats your skill level like?!
