    Was just here to post that... I'll give them a ring and see what they do in the event of a wet track...

    My instict tells me that they wouldn't be covered for public liability insurance if the track was wet...

    Well, I have confirmation that if it's a wet track, that you'll need a change of clothes!

    That's right, wet track racing!

    Apparently, a wet track changes the whole dimensions of Kart Racing, whereby the lighter guys are all over the place and the heavier guys hold to the track better...

    Here Comes FUN

    The lighter guys ride the water more, and the heavier guys make more contact with the surface... According to a guy I work with, who is a lighter guy and went in the wet recently...

    But I still need to know. Are we all meeting at the track around midday?

    I've been trying for 25 years to put on weight... i think my chances of bulking up by Saturday are much like my current physique and Toymods alias... SLIM.

    I still think the weight advantage will work in your favour slim. I don't think the rain will affect it that much.
