hey guys,
as part of my belated birthday "party", i'm getting together with some friends and fellow beyonders for a go karting session at grand prix indoor racing. since the more the merrier, i'd just like to invite you guys to come out as well. it'd be good to meet more beyonders and test driving skills against other car enthusiasts! also a great event for some pictures (*hint* ;)) so let me know if you're interested. i'll post up more details regarding times and meeting places tommorow. also, we are going for a couple drinks right before we head to GP, so you're more than welcome to tag along to that as well. if you need anymore information, feel free to PM me.

oh yeah, and i forgot to mention that all this will take place this sunday.

thanks,

terence

lol, poor vince...

i just found out that sundays are a dollar per lap, so that's pretty sweet. it usually works out to be around 2 something per lap on normal days, so it's a pretty good deal i'd say.

see you all there.

i'll post the final details later today.

10-23-2004, 08:13 PM
aight, here we go.

Loco Lou's at 7 (since it's on the way; i'm also up to other suggestions on 16th ave or close by).
stay there for about an hour.
then head to grand prix.
that means we probably will end up at grand prix at around 8-815.
any objections or what not, feel free to let me know as I will try to accommodate everyone.

How many laps do you plan on doing?

Skyline_Addict
10-24-2004, 01:51 PM
since the rates are pretty good today, maybe around 15? we'll talk about it when we get there.

AllGoNoShow
10-24-2004, 02:08 PM
mhmh I heard u need a mastercard just incase you mess up one of the karts? crap :(

Skyline_Addict
10-24-2004, 02:28 PM
nope that's not true, no such thing, atleast the last time i was there. i think they just withold your driving license?

10-24-2004, 02:39 PM
ooooh a dollar a lap?! :D :drool: See how long my business meeting goes for, I think I may have to drop in with my motorcycle gear and do some racing

Skyline_Addict
10-24-2004, 03:51 PM
ok so here's the final confirmation of the plan:

7:00 at Loco Lou's (pardon me if i am a few mins late, as I am having dinner with a friend ;)) until around 7:45-8:00.
8:15 we should reach GP. we will wait around for around 10-15 mins for people to show up who are running a little late or have trouble finding the place. then we will start registering the racers and get all the paper work done to get started. if you need instructions, it is very easy to get there, so PM me. if you are coming from Loco Lou's, it's even easier (since they are on the same road).

anyways, here are the addresses of the places.

Loco Lou's:
right across from sait. so very close to the 16th ave and 14th street intersection.

GP Indoor Racing:
2222 16 Ave, NE, Just North of 16th Ave

- DO NOT eat 15 mins before racing...
- Im the fastest driver of course.
- the door on the 350 is hard to open
- Do not throw up in the 350!!!
- DO NOT play hockey an hour after u throw up!
- GOD DAMN MOTION SICKNESS!!!:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

other than all that, fun night

hey guys, just recovered from my illness which started on sunday lol. anyways, i just wanted you to know that vince didn't get the fastest lap in the first race...I DID, hehe. but he did get fastest overall...damn vince and his weight (or lack of weight) advantage.
how do you puke so much man? you drive your mx-3 more randomly than you drive a go-kart, lol. it shouldn't be a problem...

Team_Mclaren
10-26-2004, 03:54 PM
