had a good day. one of the young blokes is paying 425 dollars to the police.saw mboddy in his pits. racing was good. enjoyed the day with willcr15.
Lots of beautiful bikes on display & on the track. The sidecars have got my leg shaking, what awesome looking fun! Had a great day with good company. Bums sore now, just made it home, thats my limit at the moment I think. The Aprillia RS 125 had a squirt right when the cops came down the on ramp, green P's & licence gone.
Had a great weekend. Dropped into marks pit. He was out, chewed the fat with his mechanic/mate. Drooled over the machinery.
OOOOHHH YES AND DID THE LIGHTS AND SIREN GO ON. thought the l plater doing 110 was gone but the aprilia got busted trying to follow the low flying fzr that wound off the speedo, young boys being boys.scotchy, sorry we did not meet you. mark is a top bloke.DID YOU SEE THE CBR TRACK OR PRACTISE BIKE FOR A GRAND.
Bloody shame, nice kid, the Ranga on the FZR went out first past a semi & was obscured, the RS gently accelerated & was gone, we were shrouding the 'L' plater but looked like he had her but not, lucky. Well anyway we found out the 3LN isn't restricted, she was off the clock. Think it's time to get it out on a track, back to that addictive racing world again.
Had a great weekend. Met Risky too! Snapped a chain on the TZR250. How???? Took home 3rd place trophy in P6 500cc on the TDR250. My ride in race 40 clinched it for me. See it here: Also, see race 42 which was so much fun: Best to watch full screen with sound up.
