RapidRudeRides Go Karting @ Brentwood Raceway - 9th September 2007




An excellent action packed day for the entire club.
 

After a night of parting the Rapid Rude Crew were ready for Karting, over 40 members attended ready to thrash it off head to head.
Big Thanks to Brentwood Raceway for hosting the event, there was 10 teams of 4 taking part in the 2 hour endurance. Once we were all gathered it was time for the briefing, as is of most safety importance with 10 Karts on the track @ all times.

Steve, Stella & Paddy organised the Crew into teams, as everyone got their racing suits on. Once dressed, each team was assigned their own Rapid Rude Kart. As the qualifying began, the tyres started to squeal. It was madness as everyone raced round getting a feel for the track, a few Karts lost control and bounced off the tyres. After 20 minutes qualifying the lap time had been set, Nathan, Steve & Deano were the first 3 ready to have it.

After the first 15 minutes the teams were due to swap drivers, Nathan's Team was in 1st with Steve's Team in 2nd. As the drivers swapped over things began to change, as different skill levels became apparent. Though out the race you could see everyone cheering their team on and having a giggle with the other members. During the Race each team had to refuel, and the track is good for the Karts as you can remain flat out most the way round.
