Not exactly Jonny Rea but it feels like it when the front comes up. Ace bit of track

Not sure of the exact speeds, but it was nailed in second. I wasn't brave enough to try and control it with the rear brake so I was rolling off if it got too high.

I really struggled with Cadwell and didn't get comfy until late in the afternoon but I think a lot of people struggled. There were 5 amblance jobs, one of which was a chopper for an instructer who binned his brand new white ZX6R.

Only two red flaags in inters though.

Very cool!



<--- Was there last October in the wet and frost, but still managed to have a blast. Very exciting bit of track and I hope to ride it in the dry one day.

Nice photos Ratty.

We got lucky and didn't have any red flags. :D There was a couple of offs though. One Ninja on it's side with a lot of steam. :smt120

There was one chap in the Novice group too who bashed his GSXR 1000 up. It was left near noise testing for the whole day i think, as i presume he was taken to hospital.

Finally, the most comprehensive crash wreckage i've ever seen, was a badly battered R1 from the fast group. Chap high sided coming out of Charlies 2 i think, which is probably about 70-80 on an R1, at least. Tyre snapped, steering damper snapped, clip on almost none existent, subframe really twisted as well as all the plastics FUBAR'd.
