Wayney Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hi all, just wondered if any one on the forum fancy taking part in a team of 10 in a 24hr GoKart race at the famous LeMans circuit in France. Currently we have 7 in the team and there are 3 places up for grabs if your quick and have the passion and endurance to last 24hrs. The race is held on the weekend 5th-8th July. We will be getting there a few days early to get some practice in. Entry fee is £2,500 for the team so we split that 10 ways if we get a team of 10. Of course there is travel and accommodation cost to bear in mind. I've never done it before but, I've always wanted to take part in a 24hr race. So where better to race than at LeMans. http://www.endurancekarting.com/Program_LeMans1.htm Cheers Wayne [COOL][/COOL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruggs Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 you got any details as far as things like what safety equipment need purchased and provision of the Kart etc? Cheers G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayney Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 LOL, Yeer Honda don't look too sharp this season. If you can rope your mate into coming along it'll be great. The more the merrier Apparently there are a total of 40 teams taking part this year. Last year LeMans re tarmacked the entire circuit so its super smooth. Perfect when your racing over 24hrs, coz the bumps can play havoc!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Could probably rope in a mate who used to whup Jenson Button in his earlier days with a Go Kart. A friend of mine too used to race with JB back when he was around 13 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewie Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 24 hrs!! I did a 3 hour session last year and had to book myself in for 3 weeks of chiropractor neck and shoulder massage. What cc are the karts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I'd love to offer, but I really don't think I could drive for 24 hours without needing the loo... Sorry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
