Keep your right foot down, and press the left foot quickly before you turn the corners... Or something like that!

Session tomorrow night at 8PM. 3 people already going but 7 places available! Please post here if you wanna race cause I don't wanna overbook or anything :)

I'd laugh just because I'm that kind of A--hole.

Tw suggestions for a sub 20:

1. Leave your boot up it while stabbing the brake, hard and fast for turns... go the drift styles! This technique is only good for low 19's though.

2. Race when Clints not there

Love to... but no. Me and my daughter have Wills Supra to retag on Friday night in the driveway, for the V8's this weekend.

Just come in and watch a few of the front runner guys race, see where they brake, what lines they pick and what not. It worked for me but it was not like I had a choice 8). We seriously need more good female drivers. I know of about one :lol:



Oh yeah, and sorry Tristan, some knobjockeys took the 8 o'clock space before ya, next one is at 9 so ill book it anyways

What about Jo from NZhondas we did good together in the Edge teams event, Lis - the other half, she drove DAMN fine on the Pridex event and there are a couple of others. They aren't THAT rare at all. Everyone just likes to THINK they are, god knows why?

Well if nobody else can do it, I can step up as I'm quite keen to have a go at this this time around. If nobody has any problems with that of course? 8)

Nope. no probs. Me and clint wanted to race ages ago but no one else got off their asses and helped out or found other clubs to race against as we had asked. So we arenn't doing this one, just racing instead. If you need a hand though we will help. We still have the old trophies we had made for last year too.

As I remember, we needed eveyone to front up with $2 each to cover the engraving. As was expected... no one did. I already forked out $40 for the two kart rims plus time to polish and mount on a bit of wood.

Don't know if I'm the only one but this is the first I actually heard of this 8O

I'll step up then with organising the series if y'all like :) I can't do a lot re: prizes etc due to not having any kind of hookups (plumbing/electrical/safety gear isn't really prize material :lol: ) but hey, happy to set a timetable so forth.

Tuesday nights ok for people again? :)

And for those on monthly pay who are interested in participating, what the ideal week of each month to hold the racing?

Cheers!
