Me too BRI4N. My upper body is feeling it now
I had a stiff neck as well this morning but that has gone away now though.

Brilliant night. Was absolutely shattered afterwards. Roll on next month though.

Some people seemed to run out of talent in front of me though

George maybe able to work a few results out with the print out's we were given at the end

Think Grid positions & a race format are on the cards for next month , Lakeside Karting will sort anything for George

Firstly, thanks George for making my hubby, along with a lot of the others, very happy - he had a really good time!!

From a spectators point of view it was great fun - once we'd worked out who was who!

Thanks for wearing different coloured overalls Tiny - you were easy to spot - especially on the grass (been taking tips from KevD?)

For karts that were all equal it was incredible how much wider some people could make theirs!!

Finally, Phil, results; the only ones you really need to know;

1st Spec C
2nd YVM
3rd Tiny
4th Ark
20th Budgie

So we'll be okay for the MLR!!!

As for the 'monthly' event I'm sure Ark said something about setting up a direct debit........!

TBH it would be very hard to establish genuine results as there was a staggered release of the karts, and some people had actually completed a lap before every kart was on the circuit.

On the print out I was shown a lap behind some drivers, but only the 3 lightweights went past me all evening.

Yes that was me at one point I thought I was going to run into the back of george sat waiting patiently for everyone to join the circuit. I backed off but then I got a tap from behind to remind me to get on with it. LOL
I`m not sure who persuaded me to get back on it but I think he was wearing blue overalls narrows it down a bit maybe

Oh what a night bl##dy brilliant and thanks again george
