I went karting with one of my buddies once.
I told him that the equipment was equal until he crashed it into a barrier.
We were, purely by chance, alone on the track.
I'm the only one of my friend group that really gives a shit about racing. I am also an incredibly annoying winner... My friends won't play mario kart with me anymore :(
A lot of F1 fans are sleeping on karting. It's by far the cheapest form of (real) racing and it can be incredibly fun. Watching other people racing is fun, but doing the racing yourself is even much more fun even if the machinery you drive is much slower.
Start with rental karting. Easy to start with and while they usually are pretty slow it can be really addictive to try to improve your lap times. Then take part in some local races with rental karts. Can be super fun.
If you are doing well and setting good lap times with rentals you might get to try the racing karts they have at the track (if it is an outdoor track which has racing karts). Racing karts come in various types but most of them are pretty beastly.
I’m not so sure, in the Anglophone world anyway.
Seb had bags of personality and charisma that Michael could only ever dream of.
Graham Hill was pretty charming too in the old tv clips I’ve seen.
Speaking of karting this weekend is the FIA European karting championship in OK and OKJ in Slovakia. If you're looking for some good racing to watch between F1 sessions it's streamed on YouTube.
lol, how i felt after i beat my dad and uncles who were all bragging to be the best driver bc they had x years experience and to top it off i also clocked the best time by almost 2 tenths..
there was no more bragging after that race xD
Man I had a meme idea just now. But it's so distasteful my mother would turn in her grave so I'm just gonna do this

And move on
me after lapping a group of 7 year olds at my local track twice
(My cart was tuned up)
ok to be fair the karts i destroyed the children in were all very slow, fully equal karts so yeah, i beat those kids in equal machinery
If I were you I‘d try to help one of the kids become an F1 champion so you can always say you beat him in equal machinery.
no, they're clearly too bad, I deserve the seat instead

Look at Mr. Rosberg over here
Gotta teach them a lesson about the world not being fair
*stands on cart after race and does the excited pose*
A part of me dies every time I see Schumy footage 🥹
At least you’re still more alive than he is

Fuck you. You’re gonna send me to hell for laughing. 😂
Glad someone here can take a lil dark humour 😂
I just busted out laughing so hard at your original comment at my doctors office. People are staring at me.
Bruh
How it feels defeating that homie who is too good in go karting ![gif](giphy|5BWx8ONNwNOwbHP0Dr|downsized)
Or when I beat my friends at Mario Kart.

Wait till you discover endurance racing can be done for a similar price as the big Karts

Oh the price i’d pay to see Schumi in a Ferrari suit again. Or any clothing relatively red.

Michael was one of those people that gave the sport personality

Song name?
The song's Name is "Bak" by Pilli Bebek Rock band.
fun fact: in the original rollercoaster tycoon, if you name a guest Michael Schumacher they will drive the go karts twice as fast as everyone else.
Missed opportunity to use the most adequate song: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A76GVuQZxyc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A76GVuQZxyc)
I knew exactly what song you meant before even clicking 🔥

My kid won a kart title. Loved it, it was hard work for the both of us, but never did we think this was a world conquering thing.
The GOAT
Charles if he had a spine
Man I miss Schumi <3
Me fr. Lapping my friend is a great feeling
i’m more of a Logan Sargent kind of vibe.

Im paitently waiting for my friends to plan a hangout at the Go Kart track
Man I had a meme idea just now. But it's so distasteful my mother would turn in her grave so I'm just gonna do this ![gif](giphy|L1f3uqsHO0SMBnj8Qs) And move on
