      @LilaKuhJunge Před 6 měsíci +1

      @@johnnunn8688 Of all possible EV choices at that time, Nissan Leaf was neither the most beautiful nor the one with the best battery longevity (limitations of thermal management). Also the Chademo plug and the relatively high energy consumption are not exactly on the plus side of EV features.
      On the plus side: Replacement batteries are relatively cheap and the car is solid.

    Nice close cuts on that line, and handling of that nasty transition from the upper deck to the lower deck.

    Karting is a lot of fun, but it can be dangerous in more ways than you could imagine. I was at the local race track here in Capetown many years ago and they've got a fantastic kart track there too, I was leaning up against a wall scoffing a burger one afternoon when a chap blew his engine on track and the gudgeon pin from the engine smacked the wall just above my head with such energy that it took a chunk out of a brick, just a couple of inches lower and I probably wouldn't have known anything about it.

    Geoff. i would love to go to stourbridge and spank your time but if i haven't got Lee to pass 4 times then it wouldn't be a fair comparison. Lee was like carrying a bag of cement with him because he's a big lad. i am a similar height to you i think. Lets get it on. i have raced karts three times in my life so i'm not experienced in any way but i am a massive petrol head who loves to drive quick. that little track looks cool. how much quicker would your lap times have been if you hadn't had to pass captain slow i wonder??? Happy to meet you there if you are up for it? i will pay.
