Latest site update is up.

I had onboard camera running for both races but it take ages for my little netbook to rip it, edit it, then upload to Youtube so it might be a few weeks before i get it up.

Decent round. We're still 3rd in championship but really have to dig deep from now on for the final 4 rounds to stay there. Not sure how Rockingham r Mallory will go, but i feel confident for Anglesey and the final round at Doninton. It could be a final round decider! Long way to go till then

Nice laptimes dude. Getting a lick on.
I like the grips...same Renthal grips I'm currently running...best grips I've tried so far.
Nice!
Isn't redline the company that sponsored Fagan in the BSB?

Will read the report now, can't wait for the video!

Cheers dude. That's one of the things I keep saying about racing. We don't have the luxury of lots of seat time. I don't ride the bike for 5 weeks, then turn up and have a handful of sessions to get onnit. So every lap has to count. That's why I'm so looking forward to the trackday. Can just slide it about and pull wheelies. Enjoy riding it and have fun rather than having to constantly push push push .

Big Al has has had a few bsb rides but mostly through JHS or on manufacturer press bikes.

He won the R Battle race at Thruxton on the number 0 press bike, which is the bike our own Cheesie owns now.

A few folk have mentioned charging for some setup and riding advise on trackdays. Maybe it's a way for me to test where someone could cover my tracktime? Never though about that side of it really. I'm one of those riders that does it all through feel, so not sure if I could get across what i'm trying to explain.

Maybe we could do a test where I take a superduke rider and bike and get it setup and give some advice and see if they go much quicker?

The Crashfest would be the best place to test this...

Is there an option to ask for a tenner or so per bike/rider to cover some costs so you can ride one of the days yourself? I think this kind of 'sponsorship/service' would be a great way to get an extra day out of it and I think most sd.net users would like the idea.
Onboard video from race one.

Damp/dry track on full wets. Tyres were wercked after 3 laps. Video doesnt show it too well as cam is mounted under mask so the bike is rotating round the cam. Proper good fun to ride, not good for lap times though.

Race two video. Got stood up into cascades while i was napping thinking about gettin the undercut on them. Meant the lead pack gapped me and i struggled to get my head in. Kinda need to get away with them from the start. Finally found a rythym but race was red flagged just as i was plannin my attack..
