Fantastic! I grew up in Shropshire and we used to do something similar, only as we didn't have a gokart we used old Sunblest bread crates towed behind a Landrover. It was more stable than that gokart by the look of things, though things could get pretty hot once the crate wore through.

LMAO! ;D Cannot believe the British police is looking for the "offenders" though, such spoilers! (and makes me wonder if they ever caught that guy on skies going down the escalator at King's Cross - a 'classic' youtube by now...) :-\
As for the go-kart, too much oversteer indeed - think the front tires were a bit worn ;)

Obviously Brawn GP testing (unsuccessfully) new suspension configurations to generate heat in the tyres..... ;D

Hope Ross wasn't driving, he's in enough trouble as it is.

Near where I grew up in Uxbridge we used to have a dry ski slope. when it was closed at night we used to sneak over & go down it on anything to hand. tea trays, bread trays, broken ski's anything that would go.
The amount of times we fell off which bloody hurt, the slope being Nylon bristles but we loved it. never did us any real harm :P
:P :P :P :P To the Fun police

we used to get old fertiliser bags and kind of sew them together with hay baling twine then steal some of dads "good" rope, tie it to the back of the 4 wheeler, sit in/on our body bag thing we'd made go crazy, the whole aim seemed to be who could drive the fastest/who could get the most hurt, awesome fun......

Anything from a broken shovel, lino, cardboard to my Grans tea tray down grassy Brecon Beacons.

Like the eye patch too, gives perspective, depth and everything a whole new dimension in mono.
Excellent work ;D
