So today i am 28 years young and as a sort of treat im going to be going to rye house karting in hoddesdon to take part in a charity celeb race. Obviously im not a celeb in any format but my team has taken the place of the williams F1 team who pulled out this morning. Going to be filmed by Sky F1, also channel 5 and OK magazine lol. Il make sure i get lots of pics, Mclaren will also be showing off the new mp4-12c.
Happy birthday me lol

That's very cool. Rye House is an amazing track, especially the first corner - I'd love to see the pro's drifting the karts around there

Just got in. Was a fantastic night. It was organised by Natalie Pinkham but involved all of the Sky F1 team.
Had good race, we managed to hold on to P2 for most of the qualifying but then the race wasnt much of a race lol. Due to the nature of the event the main purpose was to raise money so race control were effectively selling laps at £50 a pop. Needless to say we just raced a normal race and ended up finishing 11th out of 26 teams. We beat Lotus and were about 8 seconds off of beating the Red Bull Team. Track was awesome and so was the night. Very happy

Shes married to someone with the surname Walbyoff which is fucking near enough to being the same as my surname. She married the wrong Walby(off) IMO.

Yes she was there and looking hot. Driving wasn't quite up to par, she actually nearly flipped a kart driven by Johnny Herbert lol. She did don a race suit signed by Timo Glock though and she looked fucking hot
