Flea bay. You can pick up any old crud for little £££. If the side pod mounts come off the chassis on the diagonal it's illegal for racing so totally useless and you are in control of the price.

Like this one:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CADET-KART...item2a4121b9b3

You should be able to halve the price at least and sell the engines for a profit.

Not been for a few weeks Tim but the usual rule was always if busy they ran sessions if not it was open pit lane. Decision on the day according to how busy it is.

Earlier in the year it was not busy so they ran as open sessions.

Have you seen the news? Ecclestone has ended his trial by "buying" his way out of it for a mere £60m (out of an estimated net worth of £4.2bn).

Now I've heard it all...

Pardon me Gordon, and Sue, did I really need to use a Delta spelling smiley? It seems irony and humour are lost on the internet both here and elsewhere.
