Kart Racing!!! :D

I've always wanted to do kart racing, and I was able to do it at last just yesterday! I did it at Kingston Park Raceway, and apparently I got a top speed of 64 kph and a average of 60!

I won every race and set a record lap time for the day.

Later on the track got really really wet and I was drifting and powersliding around every corner.

In the easter hols I'll be 14 and I'll be able to drive the predator kart (I drove the formula kart this time) and I'll be able to go 75kph!  big_smile

Has anyone else done kart racing?

Re: Kart Racing!!! :D

You've been too influenced by Nintendo.

The real spelling is cart.

Yes, I have gone go-cart driving, but not racing.


I'm back  big_smile

That's awesome! Except I don't really know exactly how fast 64 kph is because I grew up in the U.S. and I use the stupid imperial system. :p

I've tried it once before, and it was really fun!  smile  However, they don't time speed, just seconds.

Re: Kart Racing!!! :D

Not racing. Partially. Wait, okay...

I've done hills and turns, too, or though. I was last though, so last that the person in first passed me.

It's really harder than the Nintendo games (duh). Like driving, but easier.

It's roughly 40mph, or exactly 39.7677563mph. It's kinda freaky how I have that memorized, but, it's kinda cool at the same time.  tongue

Thanks for dumbing it down.  tongue

It's not freaky, don't worry. I know over 40 digits of Pi, 35 of which are kinda worthless  tongue
