1992 Scottish Kart Championships, Cadet Class, from West of Scotland Kart Club's Summerlee Raceway.

I started 4th on the grid (#61) and spun out going for the lead on lap one (not shown in the video). Saw my dads face going in to the last corner immediately afterwards and then got my head down for the remaining 14 laps so as to hopefully avoid certain death when I got back in the pits! Favourite move being the 2 kart pass up the inside in to the last corner :)

Some noteable names out there, Oly Mortimer of Porsche Carrera Cup in #70 and current FIA World LMP2 Endurance Champion Ryan Dalziel in #28 pulling off an epic last corner pass for the win!

If I get the time later, I'll dig out the 95 Scottish from Boyndie with a certain Paul Di Resta taking his first title.

Good stuff Malcolm :) .... I remember watching both Ryan and John Dalziel blitzing the single seater opposition at Knockhill. Talking of Paul Di Resta my era was more his dad, Louis Di Resta driving a Van Diemen RF90 at Ingliston :oops:

Bumped in to Ryan at the SMRC awards this year, 20 years on. He got the award for top Scot in International Motorsport, I picked up SMRC Driver of the Year.

Louis was my dads era, although I was there at Ingleston for most of my formative years and saw a few of his races.

Wow, your cup is even bigger than Ryans! I'm sure everyone here will join me in wishing you many congratulations on your season. Keep posting the videos Mal, we might learn from them!
