My coworker Marcin setup a Karting outing, and I was unable to refuse the nice offer :)
Some of the people who showed up were almost professional karters, a couple in our groups were over a second faster than us and lapped us all in the race.
I did reasonably well and while I was being my usual inconsistent, I placed 3rd in the qualifying session. During the race, the 4th behind me was doing a better job than me after a few laps and eventually passed me, which was cool, but unfortunately the guy behind me pushed and spun me in a turn, pointing me in the wrong direction and making me lose an entire lap.
On the upside, I worked really hard to catch up from the back, and posted some good lap times (0:32:22 was the best I think).
The place is unfortunately far (1h30 return drive from home), but it's was good fun to dash it out with coworkers who were actually pretty good too :)
This is just the hot laps session to get used to the track:
