You can see where the race was won... team Shake n' Bake only having 1 long pit stop of 1:30.167 and the rest of the time staying nice and consistant.

I think the trick is to have strong hand and forearm muscles to be able to put in a good stint... shame I'm not a body builder or a wanker!

Paul was on Nigels team Blacksun... nice 1:36.047 on 2nd last lap Nige... pit stop FTW

Our go-kart had a f**ked cog for the first 15 minutes, chain kept slipping on right engine - was wondering wtf the noise was. then a 5-10 minute repair job... 12 laps behind ftw!

Was pretty damn fun.. I got a slightly bruised back from the seat though :(

Isay the winners this time take the numbers of the problem karts for next time :(

Scratch that idea... I think it's just the luck of the draw. All these karts would be maintained as they break to keep costs down, but if it was your own kart you would probably regularly replace things so they don't break mid race.

I think if you went regularly you would eventually get to spend some time in the pits... it's just one of those things.

But there is no way I'm going to risk kart#11 again... so far my pits time has been almost 30 laps over 2 races :(

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
