Pallas Karting

**GAFF** · 16-04-2005, 13:14

Guys,

Just wondering if anyone would be up for this ? There is probably very limited weekend times so now is the time to be booking.

Please see http://www.pallaskarting.com for all the details needed, a GP on the 1500m track is Euro 50 (I'm not sure what the minimum amount of races people get for this but I can find out). They say theres no maximum so I was thinking about organizing a date between us all and when we have decided then open it up to eg VAGE guys etc, friends, family (I'm not bothered). I have been there before and its good crack.

What we could do if people were interested is stay in Galway that night and go for a few beers.

At the moment the following weekend dates suit me (I have a stag party to go to but not sure of date yet, it'll probably be in June),
June 3-5
July 1-3
July 15-17
Aug 12-14

Sorry mate, won't be able to make those dates unfortunatly. I'm 99% sure that i'll be over for the Donegal international so if your there then i'll see you then.

I'm a bit lost with the whole model thing right now. What is happening? i'm still interested in the big Octavia WRC in tarmac spec. Just let me know when you want payment etc.

Cheers
Si

Padraig,
Were you there before ? I was there in the wet once, it was great crack trying to stay on

, if you caught the apex you were okay as there was concrete but if you missed it, it was bye bye

.

bpm · 17-04-2005, 21:52

Sounds good. I can work around any date.

**GAFF** · 18-04-2005, 22:36

I emailed Pallas with those dates just to check availibility.

Change of meeting location for those in Dublin,

I thought it would be easier for everyone to meet in Tesco Maynooth @ 715am, so U can get Fuel & we'll leave @ 730. If your late please ring me with your location so were not waiting (we don't want to miss any track time

)!

**GAFF** · 29-05-2005, 21:28

BTW Anyone else change there minds about going, theres a few free spots

bpm · 29-05-2005, 21:58

Tescos at 7:15. Grand so. Should be a nice convoy.

Are you going toll bridge or cross country

bpm · 30-05-2005, 19:11

depends on road conditions and on my mood.

Are we meeting a Passat in Mulingar?

pdxa4 · 30-05-2005, 19:37

Here are directions frm the VAGE forum...

"Athlone into Ballinsloe
At the end of Ballinasloe Town you will see a sign to the left for Portumna/Kiltormer ( down a steep hill) take it.
About 3 miles from there you will see a right turn for Kiltormer take it ( 5 miles) from there go to Killimor village and take a left at the junction and in the middle of Killimor town you will see a right turn for Tynagh and take that.
This brings you into tynagh village - take a left at the junction and go 3 miles out the road and the place is on your left."
