The Karting Challenge

At the end of February, WSM was invited to participate in an Accountants Go Karting Challenge in Camberley, Surrey. After arriving, and realising WSM were the biggest team there, there was no delay in getting suited, booted and gloved up, ready for the big race.

The night got off to a quick start, with the team splitting into pairs to tactically have as much karting experience and fun as possible. Unfortunately, and perhaps unsurprisingly, Andrew and Ed caused the first crash, spinning each other out on near enough the second lap!  After a gripping and rubber burning 60 minutes on the track, the chequered flag waved and WSM had secured second place, narrowly missing first by 3.2 seconds!

The internal team results were:

1st: Ben Lee and Harry

2nd: Ed and Nick

3rd: Tom and Andrew

4th: Ben Stanton and Louisa

The night proved to be a successful and most enjoyable night as well as a very conducive team building exercise.  WSM have proved what a vast array of skilled and efficient drivers they have and look forward to many further challenges yet to come – all In the name of business of course!
