JB was telling me bout ur boy being a dab hand in a kart - heard his quite talented (and doesn't he know it ).
Lets hope he makes it big in the world of racing eventually

Don't be too shocked at him being faster - big weight difference between you and your boy.

aye but the power/weght ratio is about same mate. the kids karts are a fair bit down on power compared to the full size ones. lol.

apparently the marshalls etc, say theres a 5 sec diff between em.....which technically makes im 2 secs faster than me lol

Where is that?? I've been there!! like ten years ago or something but I recognise the place!

Been wondering where that was for ages!
