Road to red bull soap box race

[madkayaker]

Any one been watching it? Not seen anyone yet that I would trust to put wheels on a hen house

I've been watching, the sheer ineptness of the first lot with the tube train design was scary. Got the others recorded for watching, but the snippets I've seen don't hold much hope.

I thought there would be a bit more to the program tbh, just seemed to be lacking in them actually building anything. One weld, and look, it's all done.

I'll be there on Sunday as it's round the corner. If it's anything like Empire of Dirt it'll be a good day out. Anyone else going?

 

[chunkolini]

Is there a bunch of idiots from Northampton on there?
One called Bill? balding goatee bearded plonker.
Some of you might know him.

 

[madkayaker]

I can just see a tall bike entry now

Alexandra palace? it might be a little steep but its not a great distance.
If you want to race gokarts Porlock hill would be the ultimate, 1300 ft vertically in 2 miles with hairpin bends. Now that would be a proper race.

 

[bump]

Yep I'm with you, but logistically a little more difficult.

The money brought in helps with getting Ally Pally restored too.

 

[Shox Dr]

it's live on Dave at the mo. Well funny

 

[Shedendman]

Not so funny now as they've altered the course,bet H&S had something to do with that

 

[bump]

Yep H&S had to get involved after one of the teams flipped off the jump and nearly lost their heads. Bet that bit didn't get televised.
