Lets drive on Berghem its much longer in the centre of Brabant and the karts are faster. Eindhoven is about 400 meters long with 180cc karts. Berghem uses 250cc karts with removed speed limiter.

Me and Biohazard is interested. But we need to know the date 100 % before we decide if we are able to make it :P

[Krutch]

I posted that I was interested as well. As for location and budget I do not really mind, go with what suits most people.

[Biohazard]

what he said.

[Scrabby]

Also another question, are we going to drive in Teams?
Same for me as what Krutch says

Is that because of my dress wearing pictures?

[traxxion]

Kaw don't fit in no karts anyway.

[Biohazard]

they surely got karts for children. no need to worry about kasper.

oh, nevermind, he's already an adult by the time this will take part.

[Kaw]

Edit:

I go for oldenzaal

[Nobo]

I definately would make it if its the track i have voted for. And if the dutch people dont mind a german conquering their country

Wel go and welcome you but.... no way we loose on home turf

[Thommm]

Though Driebergen is alot closer to my home, I still voted Berghem. I've driven a private kart (prokart) on Driebergen lately, and I must say I was suprised by the slowness of the rental karts. Besides that Berghem offers us alot more arrangements and dinner options. I've driven the rental karts there (with F1RST Racing ) and they seem much faster then in Driebergen. That might be due to the track beeing alot faster (= more fun).

Added to the first post.

@Chrisuu: I agree

Thommm: Berghem looks like a very good one to me too. If I wanted slow karts I could go to Harderwijk too

I stil think oldenzaal is best
The karts oook like there nice to drive and fast

and the track aint excatly boring
But stil berghem and oldenzaal tough choise

Edit: dam now i can't choose

[hrtburnout]

I voted for the top four: Berghem, Oldenzaal, Driebergen and Pottendijk. Maybe this poll should've been public, but it's too late to change it now

[Kaw]

I vote for June and for all the karting tracks :P

most of the tracks are outdoor - i suppose the weather just won't be good enough this year anymore to have fun on an outdoor kart track.

[Becky Rose]
