Default Big Kart Track - Jag Forum Meet and hoon on the karts

Hi Guys

Just let you know we are having another Jaguar forum meet next month or so at the Big Kart Track (Big Kart Track is located at 2310 Steve Irwin Way at Landsborough on the Sunshine Coast)

Getting Here | Big Kart Track

Planning is in the early stage at the moment but I figured we could meet there, have a hoon around the track and then go for a feed somewhere nearby either at a local pub or a BBQ or whatever, the choice is ours.

Dates would be a starting from the first weekend I get home from work on July 18th and 19th right through to mid August.

I am free during the week when I am home and I know some other members are also so it can be mid week if it suits the masses. Feel free to throw some dates around between that time and make it another bonzer day for the mighty QLD Jag Forum members.

Newbies welcome. Check out our last meet here: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/a...-141490/page2/

later

Ok so Sunday July 26th

2) o1xjr (Clarke)
3) 34by151 (James)


Any body else would like to come along?

Ill see if I can get some more numbers then Ill enquire to make sure we don't need to book on the day but should be fine.

We can also meet up after a hoon around the track for some lunch or a BBQ nearby. Open for suggestions....

Should be a good meet.

Hi guys

I got this response back from the Kart Track:

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your enquiry!

There isn’t any need to book unless your group is larger than 12 people.

Please remember to wear fully enclosed shoes and keep in mind we have a strict minimum height limit of 152 cm tall.

If I can be of any further assistance please don’t hesitate contacting me.
Sounds groovy.....

Also heard from henrycrun (Bruce). He will be on a cruise so won't be there.

3 so far, hopefully we can get a few more chaps too.

Will this outfit cut it for karting? I think I grew out of it 25 years ago

Looks like I can make it.
I have invited a mate to come along so hopefully that will be two of us.

What is the plan for times and locations etc?

Hoping to have my radiator back and installed in time, should be on the road Thursday if all goes to plan.
Failing that I will take a ride up through MT Mee.

oh i didnt know you had radiator problems bud. What happened? Did i miss something in the XJ6 forums?

Well come bike or by Jag bud it'll be good to see ya.

So for those that arent sure where the Big Kart Track is, the link is in a few posts above, but basically if your coming from the south, you go along Steve Irwin Way, which is off the Bruce hwy. Once you drive past Australia Zoo you have about 6kms until you come to a marsh/lake where a low bridge goes across it. Once your past the bridge it isnt too much further up on the right hand side. You should see the signs but the entrance to it has red and white checkers on the curb going up.

Hope to see you all there and also hope a few more can make it by Sunday.

later dudes

Found a pool of coolant under the car and no visible hoses leaking so pulled the rad just to check, turns out it had a bit of rot going on.
Repaired and ready to pick up, next day off Thursday so once the window tinting dude has finished I should be able to get it back in in the arvo.
