3 day Karting Weekend at Wildtracks Norfolk Day 2

The second part of a 3 day weekend of karting at Wildtracks which took place last Friday 17th - Sunday 19th May, involving testing, building, rebuilding, repairs, fastest laps wheel to wheel racing minor incidents a few sore ribs but a lot of fun.

Saturday 18th

A full day of repairs, building, rebuilding and prepping the karts at Dean's.  Adie Steve Dean and I worked all day to prep the karts for Sunday.  The strange sound from the engine turned out to be a cracked clutch plate, which led to identifying a second clutch problem on the cosmic, two for one :(

We also worked something else out, Karts are designed for 13 year old boys and although non of us are exactly big in the butt department we all need extra large seats, except for Dean who thinks he still is a 13 year old boy!

Next we worked on the new Birel, with Steve's help it was a relatively painless affair, everything but the rolling chassis came from the Cosmic that had developed the unidentifiable vibration the day before. The Birel runs a really nice brake system with a floating disc, I must say when it was finished it looked a pretty cool kart.  

Michele, Dean's wife and my sister, kept us fed and watered all day until we eventually finished at midnight.  Thanks Sis x 

Sunday still to come + lots more photographs and videos from the full weekend.
