Be awesome to see some more faces there. All forum goers and their mates welcome of course!



See you Sunday

p.s My wifey will be there so if you have a partner to bring along, she'll have someone to chat with

 

Hopefully the weather will be good. They are predicting morning showers like today. But a wet track will just test our skills.

 

Its rain in the morning every day for at least a week
It clears up before 9am though

Personally i'm happy to race in a downpour but that's just me

Cheers

Im there with bells on chaps!

See ya tomorrow ☺

 

Rain just sorts the men out from the boys, it just makes the limit of adheasion that much easeir to find. . Paul you are wearing a helmet,your hair will me messed up anyway.
Bring it on.

Just got home after a couple of glasses of red after dinner,and a few more. But couldn't get a couple of extra mates to make the trip north.

 

Hair...wha? I have no hair......did i miss something?

 

No rain, just another Queensland winter day.
Thanks to Paul for rounding up the usual suspects for a few hot laps of the "Big Kart Track". Fun was had by all, and as you would imagine giving 6 guys something with a motor and a race track things got a little competitve. Just a few love taps between karts, James and I got a few little warnings from staff for reaching down and pulling the throttle cable beside the seat (to give that extra couple of kp/h down the straight) and racing too close.





James(Pauls Dad), o1xjr(Clarke), 34by151(James), paulyling(Paul), champir(Rob), Shaun(Robs mate).
As well as Monica,Wendy, Paul's Mum and the 3 ling Children.

 

The Ling's took to the kids track for some fun , with Paul in charge of the 2 seater.

 

As they say Clark, racing is rubbing!!!

Thanks again for a great day guy's. Every meet is a gem!

See you all at All British Day if not sooner!

 

Don't know about the rest of you but I'm hurting today. Left knee is swollen up and bruised pretty bad and pulled muscles in both shoulders, I think it is from when I t-boned the kerb and bent the steering in the second session.
Also a bruise on my back from, possibly from one of the dome head bolts in the back of the seat.
But it was worth it.

 

Ha ha ha.....i was actually feelin sore in the back and wasnt sure what it was from but now i think i know why!

 

Just got back from the Doc, possible torn menicus cartlidge and lateral collateral ligament has damage. Got to go for an MRI scan if the swelling doesn't go down by next Tuesday. If that is the case then off to see an orthopedic surgeon.
Hoping the swelling goes away, off work until Thursday week. Will just have put my leg up and read a good book and a lot of threads.

 

Dude are you serious? That sucks man

So you think it was when you hit the wall? You sure it wasn't when you and James were playing car wars ?

Well best wishes mate. i hope the MRI turns out it isnt torn. I've snapped my MCL before, and apart from the wife having to wait on me hand and foot it is not cool.

 

More likely from the t-bone up the kerb, got seat belt bruises on both shoulders. And that is when the steering bent so the rest of the session I was turning the wheel to the right to go straight.
Even the doc said it must have been quite a big impact to bruise the shoulders, I didn't feel much in knee until later in the day, first off thought it was just a bruise on the knee cap.

 

damn who would of thought the Go Karts could be so menacing!

here's to a quick recovery mate, I hope it isn't too serious.

maybe its safer to stick to real roads lol!
