Here at Impact we sure know how to party! But this summer party wasn’t just the standard ‘go out and get trollied’; instead the team discovered our adventurous side and headed down to TeamSport Go-Karting track in London Bridge for a few laps around the track. Dressed from head to toe in go-karting attire the team soon began to get incredibly competitive’ Our MD Nick even fancied himself as a bit of ‘The Stig’ from Top Gear once he’d put the helmet on and was devastated when he crashed!
The team was split into groups of 10 for the competition where each individual lap was timed in order to calculate the overall champion. Of course, everyone wanted to win and we started to see sides of employees we’d never seen before! In the first lap, Sam’s ferocious driving took him straight into the lead and he seemed to dominate every round thereafter. Following this we saw some pretty mischievous tactics in order to gain the lead, with various drivers getting pulled over for making their own rules! We also saw some road rage from Nat who decided to ram Michelle off the road, and George is completely covered in bruises after ‘dirty’ pummelling from fellow colleagues. Poor Laura got so left behind it was almost like she’d stopped for coffee during her journey!
Overall, it was a spectacular day and thoroughly enjoyed by the whole company. Thanks to everyone that took part, and a big well done to Sam who was the clear winner from the start. It was great to see the determination of our employees and the motivation to keep improving in every round! We really do have a brilliant team and it’s great that we can recognise and celebrate the hard work that goes in throughout the year. Here’s to the Christmas party, we wonder what’s in store…
