What's that interrupting some of the castles beloved stairways? Are those the sound of engines roaring? Why, is that a GO-KART TRACK?! Oh, yes, it is! The track created by your Prefects has surrounded the Hogwarts staircases, floor by floor, and top to bottom and back to top again. Beginning up on the seventh floor, a bright banner confirms that you have indeed arrived at the grand “Go-Kart Race” of 2084.
The start line has a bunch of strategically placed karts for you to jump in and ZOOOOOOM off in, so long as you buckle yourself in and don't turn into a maniac behind the wheel. The karts are all identical in their features, some have a little more leg room for students on the lanky side, and some with less for those on the shorter side. (Equally accommodating, aren't we?) You have ONE lap to overtake your fellow students in this need for speed.
Alas, if you thought this would be a simple ride, you can go elsewhere: the track has a handful of obstacles in your way. Will your wheels get stuck in one of the sticking spells in your way? However will you get out? How about that puddle on the fifth floor? How deep do you think that is? And how about the fake finish line on your way back up to the seventh floor that disappears JUST as you cross the line? The screaming group of fans on the second floor could be as much an ego boost as it is could distract you!
Will the black and white checkered flag confirm YOUR cross over the finish line?

- Race to your hearts content and have fun!
Disclaimer: Your Prefect team contains individuals who will not mind casting a sticking spell on the area at your feet and shooting paintballs at you if you break these rules. They may equally enjoy removing your wheels and putting you out of the race also.

Clearing the ice, Adi looked back up. It looked like Simon made it safely too. Phew! The Hufflepuff braked beside the Slytherin. "Thanks for the warning, dude.'' He grinned gratefully.
"So. Shall we get this race back on? I don't think we've got that far more to go.'' Adi was itching for victory.
Simon watched with wide blue eyes as Adi headed towards the ice too. Merlin. Merlin. Merlin. But Adi had made it through the ice safely too. Thank Mother of Merlin that they had both made it out alive. "No worries," said Simon with a friendly grin. He didn't want either Adi or him to end up in the Hospital Wing today. That would be a bad start to all of this fun. Mhmmmm.
The Slytherin smirked in response to Adi's resquest to get back to racing. "I thought you'd never ask!" he teased before adding, "Yeah, we don't have too far. Ready?" Despite almost having an accident, Simon floored the gas and sped off. THE RACE WAS HIS!
Raising one hand into the air, he waved to his Huffpeuff friend. "Bye Adi! See you at the finish line!"

Nope, they didn't have far more to go. It would have been a shame if that ice made them have to end the race. But it was ON! "Ready!'' The word was hardly out of Adi's mouth when Simon sped off. How Slytherin like of him. Hehe.
Adi didn't mind, though. This just made it more fun and competitive. "I'm right behind you,'' he shouted back and zoooooomed after his fellow third year. Oh yes. We're going to catch up with you, Simon. Would that be possible, though? The finish line was almost in sight.

The finish line was straight ahead and victory would be his! He glanced in his review mirror and saw that Adi was a little bit away. The boy suddenly felt compelled to hit the breaks. After all they had been through, he started to feel as if it would be more appropriate if the race ended as a tie. "Cross together?" Simon shouted as he slowed his vehicle down to Adi's pace.
