3 sisters 21st September
 

Went racing with my 2 sons on Sunday. I was chief pit biatch & photographer & had a really good day. The weather stayed fine & sunny, so we had some fantastic racing. I had messed about with Matt's suspension, so he went out in morning practice with the instruction to come in if it wasn't right. He didn't come in, so all was well. It was also Tim's 1st race on his RR, he was going well.

Chris No 29 (my eldest) 1st time at 3 sisters he finished with a 7th & a 9th

Matty No 57 (my middle one). Got a 12th & 14th. Running a standard engine & only has a Maxton spring for "upgraded" suspension.

The guy on this Triumph won both his races and sounded the horn on the last lap, how cool is that :)

nice :cool: which club is this?

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

It's Preston & District. The track is a Go Kart track. I did my 1st trackday there years ago, if you want to learn how to corner, this is the place to do it :)

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

Me and my friend was there good days racing. Lad on green & yellow 125 Honda races at Thundersport GB meetings and they bought bike from somebody I know. Are you doing any other meetings this season. Will be at Cadwell again this weekend and Donnington/Mallory in a fortnight?

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

We are off to Oulton Park on the 18th of this month & I have a track day there on the 29th, I can't wait, 1st one since my off :)

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

You'll absolutely love Oulton, it's like Cadwell on steroids. The hairpin is deceiving, every time you exit you think "I could have done that 5mph faster", and next time you are 5mph faster but think the same thing. The run up Clay Hill under the bridge is fantastic too...and Cascades...and Island...and well, the whole circuit :D

I like Oulton...does it show?

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

Looking good. I was about to say isnt 3 sisters a kart track. Didnt realise it was a bike track as well, must have been tight racing lol

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

Been there a few times & love it to bits it's got everything you want in a track, fast bits, slow bits, technical, easy.
I still can't get my head around Druids. People keep telling me different ways of taking it, but my brain won't let me, I end up taking the 1st apex & then running wide when I come onto the straight. Going to sort it this time tho :)

3 Sisters is a brilliant circuit for the late brakers, even 650's have a go at 1000cc bikes there (ask Toadie :)). Fantastic to watch :cool:

Re: 3 sisters 21st September
 

Funny that, I never had any problem with Druids, I keep getting my entry into Lodge wrong. I quite like double apex corners like Druids and Coppice at Donington, but my all time favourite corner has to be Cascades at Oulton
