With the potential to reach in excess of 250 km/hr, karts are serious fun! Karts are generally accepted as the stepping stone to higher and more expensive forms of motorsports such as Formula 3 and Formula 1. F1 greats Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher both started their legendary racing careers in junior karts. Karts come in two main formulas ; 100cc and 125cc. The 100cc class or Formula A utilises a two stroke engine that can potentially reach a top speed of 140 km/hr, while karts in the 125 cc class can accelerate from 0-60 km/hr in 3.5 seconds, topping out at mind-boggling 185 km/hr, while sitting 2 inches off the ground!

Another first round loss

2_Apr_08-15

Picture shows a player from SM S. Hassan (in blue) challenging for the ball against a SM S Abu Bakar defender (in yellow). SMSAB won the match 1-0.

The under 15s from my school also lost in the first round for the second year in a row, going down to a single goal early into the second half. The defence was outstanding, especially the two center-backs. Both put in stellar performances, only to be let down by the other players around them. Strikers were off their mark during the game, failing to take advantage of the numerous chances presented to them. I can probably make up for it when the under 17s play next on the 8th. Let's just hope history doesn't repeat itself..
