Really enjoyed the day, excellent turn out, driving and craic!  It looks like this could become a frequent event!

Well done to all those who attended, and to the winners on the day

Geoff

I have to say our winner was definetly in a league of his own. Richie should be delighted with his third place finish, and he is now my benchmark for the next outing. I was delighted with my fifth place finish after a mediocre start. Each race was like trench warfare on the first few corners, and once you fell behind it was very difficult to catch up over 4 laps. What I learned was that good times were generated by good lines into the corners and good exit speed, neither of which I really mastered but definetly improved as the day went on. I think I had 1 lap in the 25's and a few in the 26's but most were in the 27's. I think Thomas our winner was regularly in the 25's and even got into the 24's. It's that level of consistency which wins races. Well done man.

I was the only person to use my credit card that day. Well if you are worried that the significant other might see Karting on your bill if you go in the future.

Worry not, it appears as Grove Park Services.

Actually I think it might be better if it did say Karting!!

Tomas, did you go karting before. YOu were much better than the rest of us, that's why I ask. Maybe it's just the Ayrton Senna Blood running through your veins.
