What a weekend, I will have some of my pics tomorrow (left camera cable at home), but had a blast.
Here are some pictures from offroad website.


It did not end well for this kart.


Nor this one.


This fella won the weekend.




I had a roll over and lost the chain (got a nudge on R/H rear wheel) so managed no points in first race.
They ran 2 classes in adult (450) races, with a celebrity race where alot of the big names in offroad racing where invited to drive a car.
and a seperate class for the non celebrities.
I ended up 4th in adult class (all other adults are off road racers) from a field of 8

Then last race of the day was all entries, had a field of 28 cars start the race.
I finished in 8th after starting in 14th.
And I was getting braver each lap learning how hard to push the cars.
