Sorry to hijack the thread, but you were at BUKC Whilton Mill test day today wern't you? Or your car was at least. Thought, wow... I've seen that number plate before

leave them both on imho.

Keep it as is IMO. Same goes for all cars, in my eyes they look odd without their badges

Amleto · 4 Feb 2006 at 18:32

either way it looks gash from the back imho

Yeah, I was, just got in 5 minutes ago.

It was awesome fun, the first time I've done outdoor karting before, steadily improved throughout the day. I don't think I would have been troubling the top 50% of people but practice time really counts for a lot.

Only my 2nd time at club 100, I'm far too overweight to keep up with the fast guys

there were far too many incidents today, and too many new karts wrecked, and a lot of people not knowing how to bump start and feather the throttle, but ah well, I was like that last time

best time I managed was a 52.17 or something

Back on topic

I prefer the badge on, as the rear just looks far too plain without anything there.

There were a few incidents but I managed to keep out of the way of them and was only hit by someone once. Even the worst damage I imagine would only cost a couple of quid to fix. We had 2 karts fail, one broken exhaust mount and the other some mystery problem, it wouldn't bump start and we ended up pushing it the whole length of the pit lane 3 times

Following a nice spin...

For anyone not familiar with karting, the thing on the left with raising arms is a pusher kart, used to push start the karts on the track.

Little traffic jam building up following a stall

'B10O VX' where did this come from?

Looking at it again, the only car there that looks nice without the badge is the silver one.

agreed

It was the captain of our team that crashed into him! Bit of T Cut and it'll be fine

different incident? My mate came through the crook corner and smacked into someone who had spun out.

he was second fastest of the day with a 45.94

No VX badge, leave vx220 script.

Best option to take!

One of our guys got a 45.50 something I think, or was fasted in the last two hours.
Here's me being the porker I am

Our Kart was okay all day, but the other two Birmingham Karts broke after a bent chassis causing brakes to stop working, and a bent axle on the other, not sure on blame there, but they got less time
