Bursting with that sense of accomplishment and pride for having done something new, something they’ve never done before, is the BEST part of running a blokart business!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What a confidence builder! Let’s face it, it’s a bit scary when you don’t know what to expect; when everything about an activity is new; when some of your mates have done it before and they’re egging you on.
The first couple laps are slow until you find your rhythm – pull the rope in to speed up at the top corner, so you keep your momentum. Let the rope out to slow down at the bottom corner, so you maintain control while the kart goes through a gybe. Accelerate on the straights.
YES! You’ve got this. You pull ahead of your big brother and your friends. The smile is growing wider and wider. The nerves have settled down and the next 40 minutes whizz by in a blink.

“Mate … I think you just grew taller while you were out there on the track!” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
High fives all around (well … fist pumps and elbow bumps these days). Well done!

Bring Grampa back with you next time.
See you soon,
Donna, Andrew and the blokart team
… and so it is!!!
You seem to have told my very own story about my first time on the track. Hahaha.
Had a blast and created a lasting memory that day. Thanks again for that!!
