To celebrate our going away, Mal has organised a day out at the Go Kart track this Saturday. Obviously there is fierce banter and competition between the lads as to who will be bringing the glory home...

We have the form guide and odds below. Also provided are the Mario Kart 64 characters most descriptive of the drivers' talents:

Favourite - Julio (Mario)
Former Irish Champion Karter
EVENS

Contender - Jonny (Yoshi)
He's just brilliant full stop!
2-1

He pulled out cos his moth said it would be dangerous - Rusty (Bowser)
After telling his moth, "he's getting his hair done", he'll be at the starter grid... He's a dark horse this one.
5-1

Will his car even make it there? - Keith (Wario)
No form but if he drives that heap of crap he must have a chance!
13-2

Die Hard to the last - Batts (Donkey Kong )
Batts has been priming himself with months of conditioning for this one event. Babs & Stocks all the way
7-1

Safe bet - Dexter (Paratroopa)
Steady through the corners and lightening on the straights.
8-1

The Sharpshooter -Nialler (Diddy Kong)
Will be efficient and accurate through the corners but will he have the staying power?
10-1

Bitte - Burns (Koopa Troopa)
Will be wild and eratic but could be to his advantage
12-1

Underestimated - Ro (Toad)
Could be the outside bet with a chance, he'll be drinking red bull all Friday night!
13-1

Cautious to the last - Malojo (Princess Peach)
Will he play it too safe?
16-1

No hoper - Ray (Luigi)
Can hardly get out of the estate with his driving lessons...
25-1

Mario Kart 64
Who'll win and bring the glory home?

Right, Paddy, I'll take a piece of that action. I'm putting €10 large on meself @ 25/1. That'll be €260 in the pocket then (Could maths Batts confirm this?)

Burns, you and the particulars...

Ray, Paddy Power have calculated those odd for a once off bet. Hit the website or instore for more details.

I've had to remove Rusty, he bottled. His GF/Mum said it would be dangerous... He could seriously kill out there. True story!
