Re: Who wants to do a cheap track day with me???
The day wasn't that good. Track was extremely slippy in places and just couldn't seem to warm the tyres at all. Wheel spin on the new straight in 3rd and 4th and just couldn't get out the corners well, even rolling on smoothly, never full throttle and short shifting was squirming. Decided it was only a matter of time before I have a big moment and didn't see point in just bimbling round so called it a day at lunch. Even some guys in fast couldn't get any temp in tyres.
Got the suspension done though and it is noticeable improved I think, although haven't had it in the dry yet. |

Re: Who wants to do a cheap track day with me???
Me no likey! Couldnt believe how slippy the track was today in places, I lasted 2 & 1/2 sessions and then called it quits. I had zero grip round Becketts and nearly highsided myself, swiftly came into the pits to remove my leathers from my **** cheeks . You could tell what kind of day it was going to be when 1 of the inters I think crashed on the sighting lap and someone crashed coming out of the pits! Never seen so many bikes go down in 1 day, must have been 10 or so. Not my idea of fun. Mallory on Saturday more than made up for it though
