Default Re: Donington - 15th August 108db day

Well it stayed dry and I forgot what a great track it was. The chrono system is great, so many slow riders put themselves in inters but were moved to novice after the first proper session. After that there we no major grouping on track and you could keep decent pace up.

The only spoilers were the high number of red flags and shortened sessions. Last session was less than 15 minutes and I think we only got a full uninterrupted 20 minute(ish) session once. The time it took to get back on track took ages too. I think poor old group 1 didn't get more than 2 laps in with a red flag coming out in the morning. Lunch had to be taken at 10 as both ambulances were away from the track at the same time so could not allow people on tracks.

European TDs are the way to go!! I reckon we were lucky to get half the track time we should have got
