Steve Williams Provided an excellent range of Photographs on the night, buy yourself a memory at his site: With so much talent buzzing in the team, nobody can wait to get back into it. Bring on 2009! |
The night was a complete success. As well as raising loads of money for the team, the groovy DJ ;) jK kept the rythme going whilst the bar was drained and the racers smartly celebrated one of the best years in karting - ever! |

Lewis Hamilton comes to Barclay Kart Teams Home Town; Stevenage! |
Team captain James Williams conveniently had four free periods on a certain Friday when Lewis was in town at the popular bookstore Waterstones in Stevenage. |
My Day started at 7:00am, school had an occasional day today, this means no school! I headed down to the town at ten to eight, past Barclay and the old town straight to the center of Stevenage new town to begin my 4 and a half hour wait to see world famous and karting's hero Lewis Hamilton. | .JPG) |
| He was scheduled to start the book signing at Waterstones at 12:30, but it didnt actually start until nearly 1:00pm. I had been waiting in the que for 5 hours now, 3rd from the front surrounded by about 9 Huge bodyguard security men and what seemed like 1000 photographers, news reporters and general media. | .JPG) |
I heard about the book signing only one week before from Tony Kemp (thanks Tony!) who i managed to get a signed copy for much to his delight. The event was featured on ITV Anglia News and BBC1 Look East later that night. Hamilton was a great guy to talk to i only spoke to him for a few minutes but it seemed alot longer than that, i will treasure that moment! |

I got two books signed, for myself and for Tony Kemp, and told Lewis all about the team. He was very interested, i'm annoyed i did'nt ask him to come down to kart club sometime now! He recieved a Barclay Karting Team tee shirt, look out for him wearing it around the pits at Monaco! I told him about where we raced, and how big the team was, he was very polite and thanked me for coming. As team captain on behalf of the team i said well done etc. and good luck next year, and that was it! A brilliant experience overall. |
