Yes I know how that feels! I was once having some fun with a TKM Paul Carr Venom at PFI International test day with some mates. Ok we had no really serious ambitions of going professional as we were already too old and too poor (hence moving to sims
), but we did try our best. We had an old Y reg 1982 Ford Escort with the kart hanging out the back (the headlights died on the way home at night, so we had to drive on the motorway tailgating one of our other friends), and we had one set of pretty short overalls and a second hand helmet between us. Man we had fun.
Anyway towards the middle of the afternoon in rocked Martin Brundle and his son with a brand new Mercedes van, two karts on the back and full awning setup. Young Brundle Jr had a helmet worth more than our entire road car / kart / tools / clothes / personal items put together.
After that we pretty much knew the game was up, and moved on to getting drunk (successful) and chasing women (less successful).
Happy days.
