    Grrrrr @ Karting - it favours the lithe of physique......

    You could also consider putting a KB Team in to the weekly Grand Prix races they run as well. Better Value for money - and I don't think you would have any problems scratching a team together

    Book me and Death'n'Taxes tentatively - we will confirm in a few days.
    Karting as single racers is best with around 6. In team racing, obivously you'd want 12 or more...

    Depends how good/willing you are to drift. If you don't ming getting a bit loose you have a major advantage after the first lap until you next come to a stand still as you drift around corners (gotta love low centre of gravity) with your foot still flat to the floor no brakes even on the hair pin. Using this tactic I was a lap down before I finished my first lap. But by the end of the 15 lap race I was 5 ahead at the indoor carts in inglewood vs the 10 other truckdrivers on my course. My best laps were straight after they put down talcum powder (kind of like deisel on tar).

    If you watch the pro carting the the anorexics always romp ahead at the start but get dealt to on the longer races.

    well come on out and show us how its done
    this track is pretty good cos it takes some thinking out
    last race series i ran there (6 ROUNDS OF 5 RACES EACH ROUND)
    The guy that won it was - :sly: um to put it politely a little overweight.
    Consistancy is the secret--ohh and avoiding xjxjxj also helps heaps
    aparently I tend to go through carts if I cant go round em--OOPS ly:

    Me still keen. Us gals are known for our consistency as for avoiding xjxjxj...well that is another issue

    I see Spman posted details on coming from the city. Anyone shed light on best route from the north? via Greenhithe I am guessing
