Sign ups are now open for the next meeting of the N-Europe Mario Kart League.

If you have not yet taken part in the league and think you have what it takes to burn rubber and reach for the top, or even join us just for some good competitive fun, it is never too late to join the league. All you need is a 3DS Mario Kart 7 and be able to play online to join the rest of the league racers at the appointed time for the green light.

Each week the league racers compete in 3 Grand Prix's on Thrusday nights. Grand Prix tracks, character and vehicle part usage are decided on by various weekly themes.

The next league meeting will be Thrusday the 14th of March at 7.30pm GMT, character selection, kart parts and track selection for each GP will take on a green and Irish theme as St. Patricks Day is also next week.

If you are interested in joining the league and taking part head over to the N-E forums and find the N-E Mario Kart League 2013 thread in the "Online Gaming" forum. (Or click the hyperlinked text a few words back)

This weeks themes are as follows.

GP1 has the theme of the Irish Tricolour with the tracks representing Green, White and Orange.

The 2nd GP takes the theme of a St. Patricks Day Parade using just tracks with one lap in an A to B race.

And the end the night all tracks in the 3rd GP are random where anything can happen... like after last orders at the Pub.
