    Van is packed and ready to go. I just need the weather to play nice. Gunnedah forecast looks a bit iffy, but I will wait until Friday morning to start driving up.

    I agree. plus the cost of diesel fuel at the moment makes it even more painful. I'll see what it's like on Friday. The weather forecast has been improving as the days have passed, so hopefully, Sunday will be like Saturday and I can actually have a run with @Murdo and the 2fiftycc guys.

    No rain here, just a couple of sprinkles. Very overcast and dark.

    Yes, it looks like most of the rain is falling in Gunnedah. Tamworth is missing most of it. TDRA said they'll make a decision tomorrow, so I'll wait to see if the meeting is going ahead.

    Well, I have wussed out again. Just not comfortable with the weather on race day and the price of diesel sealed the deal. Wife happy; me not. Good luck Team 2fiftycc.

    Well, we're back at Gunnedah and racing in the TDRA 2022 Season. Weather was very wet overnight, but by about 11:30 the track was dry enough to do some runs. Team 2fiftycc had 4 of us competing. Pete and Murdo on their CBR250R's, Myself on my Kawasaki and Murdo's grandson, Mason, on his DR250. This was Mason's first time racing.

    upload_2022-8-6_16-57-1.png

    Even with the late start, we managed to get 4 runs in. A couple of entries had to pull out due to Covid, but their were 3 other bikes today. A ZX14R, a triumph and an R3 with a lightweight jockey that was running low 9's.

    Best time for Team 2fiftycc were as follows...

    Murdo 9.73
    Frank 9.85
    Pete 9.90
    Mason 11.4

    Forecast is for rain tomorrow, so lots of drinks around the camp fire tonight.

    Thanks @Andych

    Fingers crossed. The Gunnedah council has decided to upgrade the airport to allow passenger planes access, so that means this could be the last drag meeting here.
