The go-karts of the recently closed F440 track in Tsawwassen will be auctioned in Surrey next month.

Fifty pickup truckloads later, he went about selling all the stuff at weekend flea markets. To gather material for the TV show, a camera crew follows him around for eight to 10 hours every day. “As we speak, they (the camera crew) have left me alone, but they’re following me today, yeah,” Schwarz told the Now. “It does wear you down a bit sometimes. I can lie to you and

tell you it’s all perfect. At the end of the day, it takes a bit of a character to do this kind of thing, and in a typical day I deal with a motorcycle club one minute, have lunch with a rabbi and then dinner with a priest. And that’s true – my life. Every day is something completely different, and that keeps it interesting.” The auction on Nov. 3 in Surrey runs from 9 a.m. to noon.
