Watch Your Back, Lewis

The motor racing bug stepped up another gear today. Scalextric, Forza and Gran Tourismo are good but not a patch on karting. The Arrive and Drive session is for all-comers (novices and amateurs, etc.) that fancy a 15 minute spin. After completing a session each driver is provided with timing data for every lap. This adds considerably to the challenge which ultimately is all about going as fast as possible. We had two sessions each and each of us improved substantially between the first and second session. It's easy to underestimate how physical the racing is and we all came away with our fair share of bruises, aches and pains. Not so many that we'll avoid going again though!
