Go Kart Madness!! (and some hijinx when i can fit it in)

alright, y;all have heard me bitch about the go kart track before. here is the action that i go through on the weekends. this first video is kinda sorta the way it should go. you will hear me bitch about the mechanic trying to shut down a lane to do maintenance. man. the customers make our paychecks. i understand he has work to do but the last month or so he picks the wrong ass time to do them. i could go on but i won;t. so here is the first of MANY videos i have. Saturday night i got my right foot smashed between go karts. video to follow in the next day or so when i get the footage off the security cameras.

this is a full ride. some will be, some won;t.

I could not understand any of those instructions
It sounded like a bingo caller! Is that you, plt?
Note this is not a criticism, prolly just a cultural thing.

I'm only used to indoor tracks here (consider our climate).
My bro was barred from racing on my ex's stag night. He wasn't too fast, just had no experience of real vehicles, being a non-driver raised on racing games. So I think the words reckless endangerment came into it... That may be why he hasn't bothered with driving lessons to this day (he's 35 this year).

Great fun - thanks.

Partly cultural, partly Texan accent.

"Alright guys--ah, hell--alright guys, remember [something] here: no bumping, no [something,] no reckless driving. That means do not hit each other. When the red lights go on, it's time to come back in, and come back in slow. Get on the brake pedal, the brake pedal is the red pedal underneath your left foot. Green pedal on the right's the gas, the red pedal on the left is the brake. The red light, red pedal, back to the lane you left from. Except for you, this side, you're gonna go back to the middle because the last person that came in got lost. Alright? Alright. Start with the [something], [same someting] only, y'all are [something] to go!"

I keep meaning to get that word list read out (thread re accents).

I'm sure if I was gabbling to Diz or to my bro I'd be incomprehensible to furriners too.

I think this is the part you can't make out:

"no heaveh burtation, no reckless driving"

Yeah, I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of that. Pun intended.

y'all had me rolling!!!

this is the general speach i give before i send out the ride.

it goes something like this:

aaaallllright guys, out on the track there's no bumping (i'm on the computer at work so the " ' " key works here! ) no swerving, no wreckless driving. the red pedal on the left under your left foot is the brake, the green pedal on the right is the gas. when the red lights come on it's time to come back in. so remember, red lights, red pedal, back to the lane you're in now. fast lane, supercars, go! double seaters go! regular cars go!

now. immona go practice something for a highjinx video. a hint you want? ok, i can do impersonations. you should be able to figure this one out if you watch any of the animated sitcoms on fox. will post when i get it done and uploaded. hopefully tonight. and if i can keep a straight face doing said impression.

yep dat's me! bingo though? nah more like an auctioneer. then again the blank stares i get when giving the instructions? most don;t listen.
give;s me a hijinx idea tho....when i get on the mike sound like a real auctioneer (not embedded on purpose) and see if i get the same look. prolly will. hell i even give the rules in spanish too! funny thing is when i give them in english and i know they speak english but act like they don;t? yeah they change their driving habits out there.
