Chuffed To Bits


After a five year absence, I returned to Buckmore Park Kart Circuit in a Pro Kart tonight - and didn't disgrace myself! Lapping consistently, I had no spins, no contact (except the two that hit me - I kept it pointing in the right direction and carried on)and gradually brought my time down from a 65 second out lap to a respectable 52.26 last lap, just 1.4 seconds off the fastest driver who was in a Thunderkart, marginally faster than Pros. I also beat my 17 year old, three stone lighter son - he wasn't happy. But it was his first time, bless him. We're looking to do an event next week, he's all excited now and raring to go!
