Karting

So a few friends and I went karting yesterday.

WOW!

A few realizations:

1. I suck on a racetrack
2. I am out of shape. (I feel like I was in a fight, or an accident).
3. Concentrating on the apex is just part of it, you need to think about the following curves as well.
4. Braking is only used rarely. (I improved my times dramatically by not braking but lifting).
5. Weight is truly the enemy. If I was lighter my time would be better, and it changes the line you take, etc.
6. WHAT A BLAST! I can't believe I haven't been doing this all along.

Have you been?
Oh, and shifter karts are insane!
