I'm brilliant at everything but I've never done any gokarting and thus will initially only be potentially brilliant. Therefore I am asking you good people to furnish me with cunning racing tips and tactics to ensure that I whup my buddies good.

That is all.

As a gokarting pro (I like to think that anyway) I give you the following tips.

1) Never use your brakes unless its extremely essential, they are not needed when gokarting.

2) Take the corners from outside to in unless you are being closely pursued, in which case take in to out, otherwise they'll come up the inside forcing you to slow down and take you.

3) When going around corners, gently lift your foot of the accellerator and when you feel the car is about to slide, slam the accellerator back and this will prevent you sliding.

4) Make sure you don't accidentaly have you foot on the brake (It's sometimes hard to tell when you're doing it), thus will slow you down and also the marshalls don't like it cos it knackers the karts.

5) Don't try and overtake at every oppotunity. Follow the car extremely closely causin the driver to get a little anxious, thus putting him off. When you see the perfect oppotunity overtake. Too many missed oppotunities results in the other cars pullin away and others catching up.

And finally, tip 6) Make sure your not wasted before you go :P

You sleep with dogs and you rise with fleas. She must have been a right dog, because you've got more than fleas. =D

Well as I'm so brilliant I've designed a door that changes size to reflect the profile of the individual that wished to pass through it. If more than one person wishes to pass through at the same time, the door will change the dimensions of the room to ensure a smooth passage.

Brilliant huh?

My advice- When going into a corner, head for the inside, and then once you're round go onto the side of the track which you will enter the next corner on. Also, try to take a straight line through slower corners and chicanes so you can get through faster.

And don't get drunk or stoned before. You'll just crash.

I'd go as the Stag's legs, that way you can reach the accelerator.
