i am mate. he used to race against kids only, but now the marshalls let him on with the adults , which is quite funny, even tho their karts are a lot faster, it takes them sometimes 8 or 9 laps to get past him. it also spurs him on to go quicker than when hes with the kids tbh. thinkhe gets the...
cool. any advice appreciated mate. iv been looking at the easykart series, altho the cadet series isnt up n running yet, should be next season karts are £1700 and they reckon u can do a season on £1500 so thats not too bad.
took him to 3 sisters the other week, jus have a chat with drivers...
i know mate. unfortunately not really cheap enough for me to support.
he has the lap record for the cadet karts at that track, quicker than most adults in full size karts apparently, 25 secs being average time there, hes running 23s in cadet lol. amir khans cousin goes same track, £000s...
youngest ever clio owner??
def youngest ever clio williams driver..kinda...he helped me drive, him steer, at 18 months. has been round donny almost flat out as passenger. done probably more speed orientated things than most club members already.
and the little sods faster than me lol.
sounds about right tbh. most ppl make the mistake of thinking the 172 shud have 172 bhp..its not,. its 172 psi, which wud equate roughly to around 160-165 ish at best
thenever make book figures, well none of the 1s iv seen on the rollers has anyway lol
couple short clips of my first track experience of a 172. cant post it in tracks section cos im not a full member ;)

no mate.on a drag strip with a head wind funnily enough.
the willy stands me at less than a grand. £800 to be precise, lol.
iv run it for almost 2 years now, not spent a penny on it other than my precious time ;)
to be fair i must point out that the williams was actually my track car. not exactly standard, and not exactly fully equipped inside either lol.
but i dont think its all that much quicker than the std 1 i have also. i have run a 0-60 in 5.63 (timed at york dragstrip) with 0-100 comin in...

there is no race craft needed on a trackday, as thats wot it is, not a race. im sure pretty much evry person that iv been on a trackday...
i have been in hot hatches pretty much all my driving life, and as stated previously, given more time in the vx i could probably get it somewhere near the williams in terms of a-b
