JiP Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Posted May 11, 2008 Okay, well weekend is up. And the winner is Archerfeild Speed Karts. Now we need to set a date... Any ideas?? Quote
styler Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 tuesday is cheap night at archerfield, its something like $30 for 2 sessions? or 3 for $45?? it does pay to for EVERYONE to get there on time early and book in before 6 or 7? after that time the hordes start flowing in. and i don't think they take bookings unless its a championship package or something like a corporate event deal package, might be able to twist their arm and sweet talk them into a booking lol. make sure the full track is avaliable, one tuesday some championship event was on taking the other half of the track and half a track makes twice as many karts, literally driving over each other at times.

JiP Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) Okay, so what does everyone think... Do we want to do this on a Tuesday night?? Or have it on a weekend, say Saturday or Sunday?? I see the benefits on the Tuesday cause its cheaper but also see the downside as people will have work early the next morning and might not show up. That leaves the weekend. It may be a bit more expensive but I think the turnout may be better. Tell me what you all think!! J. ----------------------- *EDIT* What do we think about August?? Edited June 10, 2008 by JiP_01 Forgot to set date. Quote
