Josh competed in his second race today in his Rotax - heavy, fully kitted out with driving suit and new helmet. It reminded me a lot of ice hockey days: the thrill of the speed and adrenalin, intensely serious focus-everyone so passionate and committed about what they are doing - and freezing bloody cold just like the old Phillip Skating Rink.
Joshy's cart spun out a bit coming around the home corner causing a chain to drop and some damage to his brake rotar.
We met Amelia for the first time in AGES. She is Ella's cousin, but looks just like her mummy Julie. She thought the cart action was just great.
Josh and work mate Matt quickly worked out how to do the necessary repairs so no. 77 (78 for today only) could get back on the track.

Just for a complete change after go kart watching we went to Maxie & Rod's for a wonderful lunch with the Fischers, Lebangs and Primroses. Maxie developed our usual French dining theme to unprecedented heights with her amazing beef daube and caramelized apple tartlets. In amongst all the wine, food, share market, travel tales & political talk we made plans for our next lobster meal at Rosedale and degustation at Tetsuya's in Sydney early in 2008.
As usual Maddie, Sophie and Thomas were adorable playmates for Ollie. Claire wants to keep them.

Great Judy, I've been very keen to see some of Josh's go kart in action! Did they manage to get it roadworthy again that race day?
Would love to come and see him race the next time I'm in Canberra.
Thanks for commenting on the blog too, love your involvement! :)
What a lovely record Judy. Both for photos and journal.
Have to recognize that the pictures added here show the best way the quality of time spend there. I love go karting, and enjoy reading any related blog.

Now, there’s no other option to go other than Maroubra Driving School. Driving teachers are just human. Initially, no person might appear ideal for the task. However, we would recommend going into this, considering the type of people you gel with and how finding out designs help you.
