Just got back in, what a night.

Spot on night, everything laid on for us for free.

Really good place to go,bit strict on bumping the carts etc...but all good fun anyway.

To top it all i came in 3rd out of 26,

the two lads above me had been there a few times before so had a little advantage.

Got this though for 3rd spot.







Been told that parachuting is next on our list!!!!

Always wanted to do that.

thankyou to UK Platforms for the night.

With you in it, the weight made it not possible to turn right,just went straifgt on.

Your weight even made the tyre come off too.

Tony, did that in the dry, was a good track,pretty fast too.


When we got there my mate came in his scooby and donuted it on the loose gravel by the offices...fook me they flipped on him.

Stones everywhere.

Was going to ban all of us too,but they change their minds.

Don't know how the cars go around that track too,bad enough in a kart.
