Very great video Andreas, like the part where the guy almost breaks a leg as he gets out of the kart.
Ashley, your times are not too bad for such a big fat guy….Haha
Looks like we’re going to have to call off fun practice night. Too much rain….
See you guys next week for the finals 🙂 Bring you fan clubs so we can have some more fun.
