Corporate karts are always a ***** to drive with plenty of understeer and its nice to have a little bit of oversteer to help turn them in...Maybe you got off line and that's how it happened? Just I used to race to do alot of corporate championship racing since I was younger before I eventually got into racing with my own kart...

The surface is very bumpy concrete, I must have hit a bump and, mabey that put me off line, I didnt put much opposite lock on, I lifted and braked a little, mabey that caused the understeer.

I drive mine smoothly, accuratley and nowhere near the limit as I've not done a race yet, so I dont need to find my limit yet.

Im about 1.5/2s off the pace at Boyndie, on 2 year old tires, and a kart isn't that fast (drove another supposedly 'average' kart and it was crazy fast!)

Woops, slight bumpage

I have a Rotax 125, its a 'Go-Kart' chassis, french I think - 4/5 years old in itself I think, all in all its not the greatest setup, but I dont know anything better so it feels fast enough!
