My Kart-Birel junior Rotax

On this page it Will Tell you were i started

What Made Me Start
It started to come clear when i was 7 that i enjoyed Racing, because i was at a race meeting with my Dad at Donnington and i told dad i would like to do this, so we talked it over and one day we turned up to a place called Whilton Mill Juniors it was alright but not good.
Whilton Mill Juniors
At Whilton Mill Juniors, there was a Novice Group, Intermediat Group and Advanced group, In the Novice Group you didnt really learn anything, it was just turn up really early in the morning and just drive, there wasnt any races just practicing. In Intermediat Group it was the same as the Novice group but much faster competition. But in the advance group you did do races, it was every fortnight but it was alright.
Whilton Mill-Big Track
On the Whilton Mill Mill Big Track, it was like the small track but much faster, the karts were much faster and everybody knew what they were doing in race situations, this was alright for a learni9ng curve but it wasnt good enough, it was always on the same track racing the same people over and over again. The reason I did not continue with this was because of a certain induvidual who kept pushing me off when the organiser would just say "well hes a Novice hes Knew hes only learning". This was getting on my Nerves decided to walk out taking others with me and going To Covkartsport.
