Go Cart Grand Prix!

Postby Wadeywade on Wed Jun 14, 2017 11:40 am

This weekend the local radio stations are holding the first ever go kart Grand Prix, and guess who has the #11 entry?!?!?
Well, maybe not the eleventh but I was in the top twenty (and thats after a week of mulling it over!)
That doesnt include local radio and television personalities, but when they opened the enrollment I was at the head of the pack.

And in that spirit...

I am gonna have my wife (if she decides to go) film and photograph the races. And, me in the victory circle, because I am going with only one goal in mind: might makes right. And baby, when it comes to small wheels on the ground.. boy, am I mighty.

That doesnt mean there isnt a serious, though remote chance, Ill lose. My own ego, my physical conditioning, and a few other factors could trip me up. Hey, I am honest enough to believe though, if I dont get ahead of myself and concentrate on what I am good at, I am gonna give them hell in a way theyve never seen before.

So, whatever youre doing on Sunday June 18 at 0800 EST, Say a well-wish or a prayer for me. And! If I DO pull this off I promise you all a picture of me in that winners circle! (Ill even break my own rule about showing my shining countenance for people to see.)

So.. wish me luck. This weekend youll all be riding shotgun with me, just so you know. ;)

Take a lot of blue turtle shells and banana peels. (don't really but yeah lol)
Let the warriors clamor after gods of blood and thunder; love is hard, harder than steel and thrice as cruel. It is as inexorable as the tides, and life and death alike follow in its wake.

So. That happened.

I was disqualified from racing asthe team I was supposed to be a part of apparently did not need me.

I know I promised pictures but there were none to take. And I do not plan on entering ever again. That door is slammed shut, lets hope another opens somewhere..
