Audacity hit the track

“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games.”
Ernest Hemmingway

It’s thirty minutes until the race begins and the tension is mounting. The Audacity racers wait nervously by the pit lane in their racing suits. The stewards are beginning to take their places around the track and there’s excitement in the air. A few minutes later the drivers are ushered into the cars. Jane is stone-faced with concentration. George closes his eyes, mentally picturing his approach to the first corner. Rachael grips the steering wheel and readies her foot for the accelerator... and then they’re off!



One practice session, qualifying and a Grand Prix later, Audacity’s day of karting is complete. The winners celebrate on the podium with their trophies as the final times appear on screen. Team Audacity dissect their performance – the overtaking moves, the killer laps and the collisions. A great time has been had by all and Audacity’s third birthday has been marked in style!

We spent last Friday evening at TeamSport’s revolutionary new Tower Bridge track featuring 800m of circuit split over two levels and super-fast carbon-neutral electric karts. We’d thoroughly recommend the experience. Thanks to everyone at TeamSport for giving us a fab time. Audacity will be back!
