Badger's angry mate? Did fizbin not get a reacharound last night? :(

[Badger8]

his name was andrew... and no, he didnt get one either :-p
he gets overly competitive in carts, he thinks he's a better driver than he is. Gubb gave him a good bash a couple of times tho, much to my amusement :lol:

Absolutely awesome night guys, despite my cart forever stalling then the guy jammed the pullcord from yanking on it so much :laugh:

Not so fun in leather tho... normally i have an even bigger smile on my face when i end up that slimy ;)

[Badger8]

oh yer, will post up piccies tmrw.
i'm beached as bro...

[discotex]

:third:

Great racing guys. First heat was classic with about 6 restarts in 6 laps. Barely even got the tyres warmed up :lol: Still managed a decent 4th from 8th on the grid.

My second heat was a disaster after a botched start (stuck against the tyres) then Toto hanging me up on the tyres haha. Shocking 3rd down to 8th but almost clinched fastest lap-time that heat.

Final race I got a bit held up by Andrew and couldn't make a pass stick. Was giving the marshals evils every lap hoping for a blue flag but I think after being told off for practicing drifting in the yellows they were a bit pissed at me :whistle: Did manage to force the mistake in the end and slipped past into third :woohoo:

The final times don't reflect how close the podiums really were. If it wasn't for that dodgy restart for the last 2 laps we'd have all finished within 1.5 sec. Trust bikers to make it a close race eh :yes:

[Devil]

So thats where everyone was.

[Sly_guy]

There was some fantasticly close racing... pretty much the closest I've ever seen on a kart track ! :)

But by god, bikers are an aggressive bunch on track ! :) an awful lot of shunting, grinding and banging going on ! I was surprised we didn't get told off more than we did ! :)

Can't wait to see the piccies Badger ! (Cheers to Musicman for being the cameraman)

Cracking night !!!

BRING ON THE LUGE !

I have a massive ring of bruises starting across my shoulder blades, down both sides, and across my arse from being pummelled by the seat a little too often.
