    Thought about it but never got into it. I have a friend who has many karts and if he goes out for a bit of a play around at an open circuit then he sometimes asks me to go along. I am not sure what the Karts are but i know he has some Rotax (?) ones.

    my friend used to drie them I went along a few times. He was fairly competitive and won many races However after one season of formula ford he couldnt get any sponsors and quitted

    i think he drove italspeed (?) afer having left the Peter de bruin kart team(same as raikonnen was in) I actually talked to Kimi about 8 years ago on the gokart track not knowing who he would become

    actually, im just about to get into carting for the fun involved...that and I wouldnt mind setting up a local race for the community for the local festival every year. The best part about it is that if I succeed in setting it up then it would be raced on the local streets how it was when I was a kid (with a workable pit lane and everything). I convinced the governing bodies that since we havent done it a while (quite a while actually...a loooonngg time ago) that this coming year would be an anniversary (15th or 20th) of when they used to have it. should be fun! (if I can pull it off)

    i got banned because i flipped some other guy off the track and his petrol tank burst into flames (about 5 min after the whole "it's safe! they can't be flipped!" speech).
