I'm hoping to improve on my 3rd place from last time and as Andy (lagamorph) won't be attending and he came 2nd I'm hoping for that or 1st

Don't be too quick to forget the only one who won all his races and had a kart that wouldn't turn left in the final

Aren't we having a completely different format anyway for the race? Let's hope there's no crap karts this time?!

If you won all your races then how were you 3rd on points behind me and Josh and is that how you ended up in the wall on the final?

You tell me! Yeah that's why I kept ending up in the wall in the final..

I won every race I was in, bar the final, that's all the heats, and my semi. And had the second fastest laptime behind Andy. I'm not being bitter, but Josh didn't win all his races (I beat him in the race we were in together) and started 1st in the final? Not sure how you ended up 2nd either to be honest. I know I should have started either 1st or 2nd..

I don't deny that Josh would have still been the winner though, and he does deserve that credit.

I'm hoping to qualify near the front mate so that shouldn't happen

I beat josh in a race too, I admit I didn't win all of my races but I also didn't lose any points due to unfair racing or whatever else they decided to deduct points for. I started 2nd because I was 2nd on points I think I was 1 point behind Josh going into the final hence starting second and would of stayed there too had I not had the problem on the ramp on the first lap

Im just guessing but maybe they might put the slower ones at the front in the main race as its for 30 mins, to make it more fun for you lightweights, so just maybe Tom you might have to get past me MOOHAAAA HAA

I'll just follow you to the ramp and use my feather weight to zip past you as you chug along slowly up the ramp

From what I was aware, I had no flags chucked at me. If I did, I clearly didn't see them

To be honest, the starting positions didn't bother me, I have much more fun being 3rd or 2nd and working hard to get past someone. I was just massively peeved with having the kart that didn't turn left, and when it did manage turn left it slowed the kart down lol. For most of the final Andy was pushing me around the left handers lmao!!
And let's be honest, if Josh starts in front, you're not getting past because as soon as you get close, you hit a ramp and he disappears lmao

I had the kart with the rubbish brake pedal in the final that a few people had driven (or tried) earlier in the heats and I can agree with josh being lighter than everyone else but I don't think he is that much lighter than me so I think I'll be okay
