And…why was there a track? Oh! Ooooh. Is it part of the Prefect event thingamajig? He did saw the notice back in their Common Room, which the Head Boy pinned on their noticeboard before heading out to see Cutty.

Go Karting! This is awesome!

Ethan wore a grin on his face, and decided right then and there that he’ll give it a go. It’s been a while since he rode one. How many summers ago was that? Two? Three? Maybe more. As the third scanned at the karts, he caught sight of Adi already strapped in…and an older student nearby. The Slytherin gave the Hufflepuff a wave, and quickly chose a kart. The fourteen year old wiggled on his seat, making sure he was snug, and strapped himself in.

Now…time to review the pedals. Hmm.

Go-Karting was absolutely on Toby's to-do list today. He'd never been able to try it before; the closest he'd ever come to trying was the bumper cars they'd tried out in Muggle Studies at one point, and on the pier back home. It seemed like the kind of adrenaline rush this Hufflepuff would be into. And the SET-UP. Well, from what he could see on his way up to the start-line, this was bound to be good.

Toby found the group of Go-Karts grouped together in no time, and noted immediately that they weren't using the whole 'one size fits all' thing. That was good. He hunted around for a kart that didn't expect him to stretch ridiculous amounts to reach the pedals, and soon happened upon one of the smaller karts available. It was sat there right beside another student who looked about Toby's age, and who he knew by sight, but not by name. Toby gave him a friendly smile as he took a seat in his own Go-Kart and kind of got a feel for how to sit and where the pedals were.

This thing has a seatbelt, right?
