Too-Fast-For-You / TOBY UK RIDER, what are you guys riding?

Lastly, if you have any 'Pedder mates, send them a PM, txt, email, lets try and get some more people involved.

Do cheddar so we can camp again, that was a good laugh last time. Mike (too fast for you)

hicksi Tue Nov 27, 2012 7:22 pm

Hey mike, think were definitely on for going to cheddar, just need to get numbers.

Think we should hold on a little longer and see if anyone else is interested, I will probably speak to Matt (SouthWest Karting) end of this week, we have 7 riders, 8 or more 'Peds so far...

ANYONE ELSE?? Don't just read this, get involved.

nizz Wed Nov 28, 2012 4:32 am

Make sure you guys take plenty of pictures, for those who carnt make it. And dont forget to get them posted up afterwards.

sxpmike Wed Nov 28, 2012 6:05 am

hicksi Wed Nov 28, 2012 8:56 am

We'll be sure to document the event well mate, Matt at SW Karting has a 'resident Go-Pro' which we he suggested we use to get some good footage, get it up on here, fb and youtube!? Im sure we've all got a camera phone or two between us too.

Just actually got off the phone with Matt at the track, I said we have 7 people, 8-9 'Peds and when is there a day that's going to work for him.

Obviously leading up to christmas there is plenty of bookings and the mini moto club has the track friday night... Matt does want to try and get us started before christmas but he did say if it doesn't work its usually a bit easier after christmas.

THE QUESTION IS WHAT DAYS WORK FOR YOU GUYS?

Once we have a day that works for all of us ill run it by Matt.

Im pretty sure we used to have the last race nights on Wednesday's and Thursday's, any of these days work for anyone?

sxpmike Wed Nov 28, 2012 2:47 pm

Preferably weekend as I work two jobs during the week.

hicksi Wed Nov 28, 2012 7:24 pm

Weekend works for me too.

What's everyone else thinking??

hicksi Sat Dec 01, 2012 10:19 am

So just sent these out to most of you. If we've missed anyone or you want to get involved just post up ASAP. Need your help to get this going guys...

'Hey Guys,

So i think we're about there on numbers for this Race Night. Looks like its about 7-8 people, maybe more depending on how many guests people bring + Sxpmike is trying to get a hold of the Planet Ped guys...

Matt at SouthWest Karting (Cheddar) is well up for getting us all on the track, he is waiting for us to get back to him with a day that works for all of this.

SO, get onto the Race Night thread and let us know any days that work for you.

shawzy89 Sat Dec 01, 2012 10:31 am

))))

hicksi Sat Dec 01, 2012 10:47 am

Nice work Shawzy, easy going Cool

I take it for the 'weekend' were thinking saturday?

As for me im pretty easy too (Whey Razz

) any day is good, we used to have some Race Nights on Wednesday nights if remember correctly, thoughts?

shawzy89 Sat Dec 01, 2012 2:26 pm

Banging can't wait for more details Wink

hicksi Sun Dec 02, 2012 3:17 pm

Hope you had a good weekend gents.

Still looking for a response from Weblefeck and TOBY, you guys out there?

What days work for you?

hicksi Mon Dec 03, 2012 9:56 am

Can anyone contact Weblefeck, TOBY outside of the forum? I've PM'd them both, but I can't get a response...

hicksi Wed Dec 05, 2012 8:35 am

Still waiting for a response from two of the guys.

In the mean time, Matt from SouthWest Karting has been trying to join the forum, every time he tries to log on with his details it wont let him? We're thinking his account might not have been verified properly or somthing along those lines, any Admins on here possibly lend a hand?

piedog Thu Dec 06, 2012 10:38 am

who actually runs this forum?!

hicksi Fri Dec 07, 2012 12:23 pm

piedog wrote:who actually runs this forum?!

No idea buddy, Sxpmike is an Admin on this thread, he might be able to shine some light on that?

As for the Race Night, I went down to see Matt at the track yesterday, not only did we get some sick track time (Got some GoPro footage too!) we had a chat about doing the events on the weekend and it doesn't look like it will work.

Saturdays can be busy and they have to pack up early in prep for the market that is there on Sunday.

I seem to remember PSUK race nights being on a wednesday or thursday? Would with work for anyone? Still waiting on responses from some of you guys...

piedog Sat Dec 08, 2012 5:08 pm

its unlikely that i would be able to come on any days as i have work every evening apart from saturdays, and on saturday i play football. i may be able to come but it would be more of a last minute thing unfortunatly

hicksi Mon Dec 10, 2012 6:30 am

That's a a shame buddy, fingers crossed for one of those last minute opportunities!

If any of you want to see the track and a few of us goin round it head to the General Chat section, got some pics and vids up...

Lastly, Weblefeck, TOBY where are you???!

hicksi Tue Dec 11, 2012 4:01 am

Ok fellas, TOBY just got back to me via PM on goped nation.

It's just Weblefeck were waiting on now...

To recap, I know a few of you said the weekend might be helpful but we can't do that due to track constraints. Friday is mini moto night, so it looks like Wednesday or Thursday night might be the best/only option for now.

I think the next step is for Matt at SouthWest Karting to throw out a few dates (probably in the new year now) and we'll see if we can't all make one.

Thoughts?

To Recap on the riders:

Hicksi x 3 People
x 4 'Peds (2x Go-Quads, 2x Big-foots)
