Go karting & paintball day (Name list)

[ljb]

sounds good to me just depends on place, cost and date. would be a long and painful day though.

[Bender Unit]

I would be interested.

There is a place in north Bristol that does 90min nonstop GP's for 30 notes - Keeping the costs down we could do small teams - 10 mins each or something like that? 10 mins would be extreme though - your arms would probably fall off after that!

[hicks]

the place we were looking at is in lincolnshire near newark.

£55 for 1/2 day paintballing and a mini prix which consists of 15 mins pratice. then 3 qualifying sessions with a final.

we do 2 hour plus stints in lemans 24hour. 10 min is easy

[Draven]

Is it just me, or is there a bit of friendly rivalry between you two?

Yeah you could say that..

We had a work one organised a while back, and hardly anyone turned up so we ended up doing 1 hour - 10 minute break - 1 hour. Seriously hard work!

Our Game Fields
We have a variety of undulating woodland game fields ranging from defending Forts and Army Vehicles to flag games and speedball arena games. We cater for all levels of ability from the complete novice to the country’s leading player.

Equipment
Each player will be issued with the latest paintball equipment consisting of a Full Face Protective Mask and Gas Powered Guns which fire water- soluble paintballs.

You will need to wear comfortable clothing and footwear, we recommend boots or trainers.All other equipment is provided for you.

Safety and Game Info
Safety points and game advice is given before games commence. If you get “splattered” by a paintball, you are out of the game, but don’t worry a game only lasts about 10-15 minutes, so you’ll soon be back in the game.

At least 10 games are played throughout the day at your own pace. You will have plenty of opportunity to defend, attack and ambush your enemies.

Marshals and judges are there to make sure nobody bends the rules, they can also give advice on tactics and strategies if required.

Open to all ideas Nice one alex.... Need to sit down and figure out which is the best track & value for money. Don't really want an outside track as weather will become an issue then.

View this video to see the track... http://www.fastlanekarting.co.uk/thetrack/trackgrey.php

Keep the ideas coming though folks..... and get your names down

Outside is better though. Even more so if its wet. Just bring waterproofs, karting in the rain is a lot of fun.

[hicks]

i dont see your name on the list lauren.

thought you would have come to kick ass on the track and then shoot the crap out of us.

[Spittinflames]

Need more people for this to happen folks

[ljb]

i wont be able to make it if its this month, and money still might be tight next month, any free places if its your birthday??

Good point. Lincolnshire is a PITA for me to get to though.

What is the cost of the karting?

[Draven]

People are coming from far and wide just to see someone slap me at The Concrete Cows meet...

I would have thought the list to Shoot at me and ram me off the road would have been massive already...

[Spittinflames]

Someones slapping you........ when, who, i'll be there to watch
