Go Karting

Its the start of another weekend. This time we went to a place on the outskirts of The Hague called de Uithof which got ice skating, indoor skiing, climbing and go-karting. We went go-karting of course, 5 chaps in all.

It was thrilling but also gave severe headache especially as we were pitted with some good drivers who seem to be having their best fun pushing and banging us aside during the race.

I found out there are two basics to fast go-karting. You can scream down a straight at top speed but the art is in the cornering in being able to pull the kart around it at its maximum speed. The other one is overtaking, the key to this one is simply confidence.
