Celebrated Lorraine's birthday at night by taking part in a 2 hour go-kart race with my ING-colleague Ron and 2 of his friends. Got elected to be the starter-person and spent 15 minutes wondering:"Why the fuck does everybody appear to be going twice as fast as me?" Found out that when I swapped places that I was "only" 5 seconds a lap slower than the fastest person. Gaaah! Then found out that those jerks showing off with walkie talkies were actually no 1 in the current indoor go-kart competition. Right! And some of the others were pretty good as well.

Managed to take a second and a half of my fastest lap-time on the second stint and my team gloriously managed to finish 10 (out of 15).
