Understand. However, some/most of your list were conceived before the WSBK trip too  [cheeky]

1 & 5 were spoken off before.
1. was spoken of by one Super T.I.B. I think but nothing came of it.
5. was pitched by me last year for early this year but nothing came of it cause i went to see the snow.

Sure and as the lads asked at PI can I wear my leathers......
Well yeah you can but you might be uncomfortable, sky diving or go kart racing.

So lets work on the Go Karts.
I have done the Reduced Mini GP costs about $150 you get to drive for between 1-2 hrs depending on the group size.
If we have 15-20 people there it would go for around 2 hrs.
You get 2 10 min warm-up runs
Then 2 15 min races from memory, it is run in the most powerful karts you can rent 13hp machines running around 100-120kph
So lets find a date and get it on track.

Okay so maybe no all or any of these were hatched at WSBK.
But they were definitely spoken about.

He's bringing slowpoke back to be his pillion passenger. Hopefully that will help, but probably not.

Don't panic Matty ,I'm going to take it easy too.no racing,close passing,finger gestures or top speed shoot outs, its been a long time since i was on a kart . ;)  ;D

So we will just follow Chris around like good little oz monsters, after all he most certainly will be the quickest [cheeky]

I predict carnage
