Formula woman

[leean]

What do you think? I just got an email telling me I have got into the first stage of the formula woman competition. This means I get a day with an instructor, some karting, a fitness test and a general knowledge test...the catch is its £50.

Should I do it or not? I know some have had bad experiences with the comp but I entered as I dont have much money to spend on driving and thought this could be a good way of getting some experience for little outlay...

Go for it! Might end up on telly too.

Judging by last year's competition it struck me that the range of talent is somewhat divided - half of the grid is very good, the others seemed to be making up numbers. As a PHer I can't see it being too difficult to get yourself at least half way up the grid

Cheap fun no matter what the outcome. Just do it.

How did u get selected? random choice or did u apply for something?

[crankedup]

You lucky lady, do go for it and enjoy what must be a great opportunity.

Wish it was me - no ang about I don't want to be a woman

Thanks! I made a phone call to 'the formula woman hotline' and then got an application form sent through.

I think I will do it, even if I dont get seleected its a lot cheaper than a day on track would be!

Will let you know how it goes

lol so if you applied, why are you asking if you should do it or not lmao

you women .. make me laff
though I suspect with an indecisive nature like that you won't get far ...

Cool. My art teacher (who's a massive car nut) has applied for this too.

I've just checked your profile Lucien and, may I ask, are you really 13 or is that a subtle joke that I completely missed? If that is your drawing and you are 13 you will go far. Keep studying hard, never lose that great sense of humour of yours (I read your post re-school pranks ) and above all, keep your dreams alive

He's 13, and IIRC the nephew of "dangermouse"
