So come on then, lets have some podium predictions.
Purely from personal experience of racing/wheel banging/being punted off, with some of the crowd who are attending i predict the following people to be jostling for the top 3 spots....
1. Steve Murr (as he's a stealthy ex karting pro)
2...
Re: 'Sir_Dave's Caged, Cleaned & Toyed-with Shed Trophy Paedo Wagon
So Dave, out of all the people in our little Le Mans gang we have the following cars....
Sir_Dave - BMW M3, Trophy (soon to be hibernated)
Nick - BMW M3, (copied Dave) Audi A3
Saner - BMW (copied Dave) Saxo VTS (in component...
I did notice also that you are lifting off very early and effectively "coasting" before you apply the brakes, changing down etc.
The amount of time between you coming off the throttle and applying the brake should be minimal.
Combined with heel toe you'd be substantially quicker around a...

And i was going to suggest we go in one car from mine.....maybe not wise with your arse after a Vindaloo.
Re: Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 1pm
If you come near me I'm gonna put you in the wall. Simple as that. I don't expect I'll see too much of you... except over my shoulder
Re: Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 1pm
Yeah but ask any man, any real man, it doesn't matter if its £3 or £4, enough for a beer is enough for a beer.
Re: Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 1pm
Top 3 times i think. Means that, combined with the podium places, there is potential for 6 people to pick up a prize. Unless the top 3 fastest times are on the podium.....

So why aren't you in attendance on this one Tony? I don't think I've ever been on a CS Karting event without you there...
Re: Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 1pm
It wasn't a loophole, it was 9 other teams without proper sanctioned race experience too busy to stop and actually think about what had actually been said.......and of course, there would have been a big upset if Burpspeed hadn't of won the...
I think you guys had a different interpretation of the rule 'minimum of 7 stops'....iirc everyone else was under the impression this meant 7 DRIVER changes!
Either we missed a trick or you guys are waaaaay too wily/wise/old for us to contend with!
Re: Essex Karting meet - Sunday 30th October @ 1pm
Well it certainly wasn't Tom.....from 4th to last after the first sodding lap. IIRC it was Dave and I who dragged us back up to a respectable 3rd....which should have been 2nd if team Burpspeed had actually played fair....;)
1. Vickyx - PAID...

Don't forget mine now Steve.....it will be waiting for someone else to finish building it, never actually make it on track before being stored in a barn indefinitely.
In other news, perversely, i secretly hope its wet....;)
