    Talking with Bill (the starter at Gunnedah) in his muffler shop today, and he told me that he had heard that the other bike guys were going to make it a lot harder for me this time after putting a few of them out last time. Anybody want to come and help me show them that 250cc is all you need?

    Mate, I would love to. Nothing gives more pleasure than sticking it to the big bikes. How exactly do they plan to make it harder for you? It's pretty simple...cut a good light and run to your dial-in. If you lose, then the other rider did a better job. I'm more interested to see how much you can drop your ET's by. Just my luck, the next Gunnedah meet will be at the end of November! (private joke).

    Bill told me that some of them were nearly wetting themselves watching me dissapear into the distance for 5 seconds before they could go. Said it was funny to watch.
    I think they are just trying to stir me into making a mistake. :lolsign:

    If the weather plays ball, I'll be there. Not sure what State I'll be representing? VIC I guess.

    Damn. @Linkin has at least a 40kg weight saving advantage on @risky @Murdo and myself. Maybe he can race with a couple of cement bags gaffer taped to his bike...that should even things up.

    How about the state of 'getting out on our bikes and enjoying ourselves and the company'?

    That's only a problem if the boss decides to join us on the track.

    Hey Jo, I'll try and put a camera on the bike for a few runs. @Linkin normally has a camera on his bike, so we should get some reasonable footage. If we get 4+ 2fiftycc bikes at the drags then we'll do a "story" and post it.
