All I can say is WOW!!! 
This place is ideal 
To get there from the A1 is dead simple. You simply take the turning for the A17 towards Sleaford & follow that road.
If you pass this huge Mastercare factory you know you are on the right track (it will be on your right)

Pretty soon you will start to pick up signs like these:

There all tagged onto the bottom of other signs like this:

You take a right turn towards a little Village called Stragglethorpe
PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THIS SIGN

The circuit have a very delicate relationship with the locals. You MUST respect this & adhere to the speed limits. This also means no uneccesary revving/over-revving of engines etc. This includes loud music & shouting "do it dry" 
The Village is very small & all I ask is that you don't endanger our relationship with the bosses of the circuit by giving the locals cause for complaints
After Stragglethorpe you will very soon see this:


Turn right here. Again, keep your speed & noise levels sensible
As you enter

Give way to oncoming vehicles
And this Ladies & Gentlemen is our paddock 

Its fuckin massive 



Note how small my Dads Vectra looks in the distance!

Yes that is a 5 a side football pitch 


This is the viewing area for the kart track. Nice & big 

The electronic scoreboard thingy

It automatically records your lap times through little sensors on the karts. Tells you time differances etc
Not bad eh? 
And remember, as you leave.....


Can't wait now Im all excited 
Matt

I think they are called "pro karts"
Not the fastest ones out, but fast enough 
Just to clarify, we are hiring the paddock & not the circuit
After 6pm there is an open session where we could pay & use the karts etc
Forgot to mention that there is a restaurant & a bar there too
