The NDP is a joke unfortunately and has zero interest in actual socialism.

I'm trying to do the mentally healthy thing and get out and go do some laps in the kart but there currently is a thunderstorm warning so we'll see how that goes.

Can't wait for the exit polls to be wrong again and for the Tories to expand their majority.

Labour voters being anxious about the Tories getting an overall majority despite the exit polls are hilarious given that a month ago people were talking about a 200 seat margin.

Wall of champions had to be moved because the new wide cars literally could not get past it without slamming into it like very expensive birds into a window.

Wonder how they are going to move the castle in Baku?

So Circuit Gilles Villeneuve took out the Wall of Champions, it's just a tire barrier now. Qualifying is going to be really boring.

Finally, Canada has damage set to low, just like my game on Xbox.

Google for tracks near you and look at what sessions they run, hire a kart from them and just jump in. Karting people are very welcoming to newbies, mostly because they know that if you get the bug you will be giving them lots of money for many years to come.

I'm pretty sure it would just be me going "lol x is broken on the kart now" and OhsH going "buy the tires". I had an AI thread that derailed into my karting Odyssey and there was very little interest.

Where are you Brownie? Australia? the UK? the US? If in Oz I can tell you about the 125 TaG series that runs here which looks really awesome and that's what I want into, but I have to lose about 10 more kilos to fit into the lower weight category. OhsH is in the UK and 1500 in Canada so wherever you wanna kart there might be someone here from there.

I think that should work, I cued it to the right point. If not, skip to 18 mins 33 seconds. Yep, it worked.

Either way, I would highly look into finding a track that is semi local to you and look to see if they have a decent lo 206 kart turnout, I'd really recommend that as your introduction into karting in general.

As somebody who jumped straight into two stroke I'd highly recommend buying a 4 stroke first unless you've worked on race bikes or something.

Front wheel drive cars and four stroke karts, truly the most interesting and fun people!

for everyone else, four strokes are those rental karts basically. two strokes are the screaming beasts
