BSB Knockhill Saturday report - SV650.org

muzikill · 18-06-11, 05:23 PM

Saturday

Race:
The best of the action didnt start until late on the afternoon due to a wet and slippy track. Those 125's make a heck of a racket eh?. The Harleys were actually good to watch and seen a big slide off. The superbike qualifying was delayed by around 40mins due to the state of the track and the time it took to clean it up. Hopper and Kiyo arent sure of this track and dont like the wet!
(someone else can add to this report better than me!)

Stalls: Ok im not sure if it's because it was saturday but they didnt seem to be a lot going on. I didnt notice a samsung/crescent/suzuki/dread stand as i like the quality of their stuff and everything else was everything you've seen before.

Weather:
Was actually pretty 'close' warm even with thin waterproofs on and the midges were swarming around duffus in front of the fir trees. Its muddy on the bankings and car park areas so watch out for that one tomorrow and its going to be warmer.

I'm hoping to ride up to it tomorrow, fingers crossed the weather isn't as bad as it was on the Sunday last year!!!

Report for tomorrow is 17oC with little rain if anything.

Oooh, that sounds promising!

Yeah but it's scotland so it could be the opposite within an hour!

Anyone else pi$$ themselves watching Hoppers stomp off after his crash in race 2!?

Nice moves John

Yup, did they find out why the back end of his by went?

PMSL at Hopper, he was so mad with himself. We were sitting in the in field at Leslies? Anyway got to see Hopper close up as he stomped by. Quite a lot of carnage at that corner.
By the way Saturday was baltic, don't believe Muzikill. I've not managed to see any TV coverage despite recording it, how is the kid who came off then got hit in the 125s?
