Jezz Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 One of our parts suppliers has put on a bit of a competition for garages like ours that turn over a certain amount of parts with them. Over the last few weeks we have been competing through the knockout stages of a karting championship. 15 teams in each heat, 5 heats. Each team must use three drivers for qualifying and the same three drivers for a 90 minute endurance race. The prize, 3 pairs of tickets, first class to New York, 3 nights in a 5 star hotel. We just won the quarter finals! So through to the semis! Tonights race was a walk to be honest, but I think its going to start getting a little serious in the semis. The top 5 teams in each semi go through to the final in 6 weeks time. Exciting stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveR Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Top tip: shove the seat as far forward as you can (and still be able to drive it), the car becmoes much less power/corner-oversteery (= no traction out of the bends = don't gain speed) and you can run rings round the others who will be left wondering how you defy physics.
