** KARTING ** Sunday 10th @ 6pm **

Yep a good night had by all I think. Only six of us turned up at 6pm so we
had the safety briefing and got ready for a mini enduro, two sessions of
25 laps. Just as we were about to get into the karts Beemerchris and
Bayerische arrived. That 540 must be slower than I imagine. Anyway all
eight of us went for a quick practice session and then started the first 25
lap race. I started from 1st as I was number 1. Kin started from 5th but
still managed to pass me after a couple of laps.

Race two started in reverse to how we finished race 1 so I started in 6th. I
was involved in a big incident on the first lap which slowed me down and
allowed Kin to pass but we got going again. I was really getting the hang
of the track during the second session finding a bit more speed and
better lines through the corners. I managed a 25.60 time. Unfortunately
Kin had a crappy kart in the second race only posting a 27 second time.
He did manage a 25.92 in the first race. I think he would have one if he
was in a better kart.

The good news is Kylemore are getting a brand new fleet of 200cc karts
to replace the tired 160cc ones so the next time should be better and
hopefully we all get good karts.

Thanks alex for beating us all again, always good to learn from an expert... its nice that you let us have a sporting chance against you, I know its hard for you to be so restrained.

Ger: great bumper cars, sorry for the t-bone ;)

Kin: a worthy successor to alex when he retires?

Killian, you're just going to have to earn some brownie points on Sunday
morning. Step 1, get up very early and go get the papers and ingredients for
a full Irish. Step 2, serve breakfast in bed along with papers. Step 3, take the
kids on a walk/drive to give the boss some peace and quiet. Step 4, tell her
you're going karting at 6 and will be home by 9.

sounds just like my sunday mornings!!!
