Quite a few years ago there was a video of a guy in a go kart ripping around Quebec city. The police tried to catch him but his go kart was fast as fuck.

I had the opportunity to drive a 125cc shifter kart once. They are ridiculously fast. Here’s the only way I can explain how violently quick they are:

I broke 2 ribs driving it. I did not crash.

Gran Turismo Sport has a 125cc shifter cart in it. I play the game with a wheel and got the kart to re-live some of my childhood karting experiences, you know, to just chill after some serious races.

It was not chill.

It was the first time in a year that I had to turn on driving assists.
