I don't and I'm past twice the driving age...just

Great feeling driving for the first time (legs arms hands and no co=ordination!!), I remember driving on my 17th in a 1973 Austin 1300. Great stuff

I still don't know what DT stands for and I really want to say Death Trap!!!

But I suspect its Design & Technology.

The go kart looks good, is that a MTB brake on the back?

phelpsa - 11/2/08 at 10:51 PM

Design and Technology it is.

Death trap is equally relevant

It is a mountain bike brake, 185mm dis with Hope D4 4 pot caliper

Happy birthday!!!

Miks15 - 12/2/08 at 09:45 AM

phelpsa - 12/2/08 at 10:15 AM
