Thanks for the offer Steve,

It would be great to shadow someone in Max who knows what they're doing for a race day/practice -just to see what's involved and get a feel for how the kart is set up - particularly for FE as it's my local.

Of course, I don't mind helping out with kart trolleys and dogs body work - don't mind getting the tea's in aswell.

I think I'm actually going to take my kart to practice on Saturday April 11 so it'll be helpful to get more of an idea of setup ahead of practice.

If anyone can show me the ropes I'd be grateful. Can be contated on 07966304330.
I'm 24 so probably a bit older than most in senior but looking to compete in 177.

Oh, and can anyone tell me what the best gearing for max at FE is? I'm about 90kg with suit and boots. I'm guessing around 13 front and 85ish rear???

Finally - i've got 3/4 worn Bridgestone tyres on my max (I know they should be SL6's).
What characteristics do bridgestones have and will it make much difference if I'm just working my way up to ARKS pace?
