November Meeting : Go-Kart Enduro - November 13, 2010
Re: November Meeting : Go-Kart Enduro - November 13, 2010
Whoa, what a great meeting! Juliette and I had a blast watching the mayhem on the track and a big thanks to Uncle Richard from Juliette for the Turkey pepperoni, she loved it! Byron, she's got a bit of practising to do until she can get out there I think, she's been driving her electric jeep and the lawnmower around for the past 2 years and she's dying to get on the track with you guys, even with all the bumping! I've got some pictures, I'll see what I can do to get them up as the photopost is still down it seems ....

I thought that it was very kind of people to bump me from behind so I could get up to speed quicker...
A very fun meeting and surprisingly hard work driving those things!

Wow was that fun...and alot of work! I can second the tender/sore factor after thrashing around out there That was my first checkered flag lap since the 90's , thanx for a great night out guys! Jamie got our fastest laps-3 in the 29's - but our driver changes were very quick and #18 pulled good. Richard-I saw you snapping some pics, the kids would love to see...

Sounds like you guys had some fun.

Awesome time!!! Seeing that I got there late to race, I was very surprised to be allowed to hop in a seat. Thanks Rich for twisting my arm to fill a seat! Seeing that I came in as a back marker, I was seeing leading karts approaching and imagining blue flags waving at me and waving y'all by. Ton's of fun trying to chase y'all down and just being out on track!! It's still huge fun being a moving pylon!! Keith and Matt, I hear your pains. Me being Asian and having no bum... Ouch! My kidneys and hips are not happy with me today! Great event for the club!! Thank you all for a great time!!! Next year?

Thanks for everyone coming out last night and making it a great success!
We had 22 drivers - 11 karts - and no one got kicked out!
Though, by the sounds of it, the staff was pulling their hair out because of the 'closeness' of our competition.
There is talk of a rematch in the Spring... so keep your eyes peeled for any details.

That is a good one Rich - I didn't bring my own helmet (I usual will fro this type of event) as I was working in my shop that afternoon and did not leave time to get back home before attending the go-carts – too busy turin gthe Bronze and enjoying that new Wolf Creek CV installation…rnorrish wrote:and the popular image of the night...

A full 24 hours later and I'm still sore as hell. Competition was fierce , driving was over the top, but I guess that's why we're out there. I had a blast and I can't wait for the next enduro event. It's the teaming up and extended driving periods in shafts make it truly endurance. I better start stepping up the workout routine or I may not survive the next one!
