The original post said "Commence KFC Old Northern Road Penrith). Details TBC"

What time are we meeting, and what time are you expecting to race??

Having a look on the web, I can not find a KFC on the old Northern road... do you mean the one at Mulgoa Road, at Panthers, or do you have a full address?

I've updated the first post, made it a little clearer.

The Address is actually 1 Aspen Street, South Penrith
Here is a google maps link:

Thank you for the updates, especially the map.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Sun morning.

I expect I will be on my own on Sunday, I do not think David will be attending with me this time... Perhaps next time?.

As it is now known, most event attendances are not known until the day. This day is no exception. It is no problem organizing events, but numbers on the day are different to those committed. However in our case, late commitals (sounds like a funeral)are generally higher than those who commit early on. Go Kart track bookings are variable.
0900 meet for a 0930 departure

Please take note that BBQ lunch (Sausage Sizzle) is provided (including the knife!). There is a kiosk nearby that has drinks, hot chips, cappuccino, etc. Radios needed (one of mine disappeared!). The allocated BBQ area (which is booked) is near the pavilion. See you all at 0900 Sunday morning

Remember costs: $60 Go Karts, Public $5 entry fee and kids u/12 free.

Another great outing.....
Short cruise to Butterfly Farm, and got onto the carts a little earlier than expected... After two fifteen minutes, I was bushed....
Then the chefs got busy on the BBQ, and after bacon and sausage butties and a can of drink, all was right with the world..

Thanks for organizing, with quite a few joining is.. I think there were eight drivers this afternoon, let's do it again sometime soon.

What a top day.
As said above, only a short cruise but 30mins
in the go carts made up for the rest.
Great weather & a good feed to top it of.
Top family day out with the club.
See you all in 2 weeks.
