Was at EC for ride day and was an awesome day. The weather was great with a nice warm track, very few stopages.. apart from couple of red flags for sessions 3 and 4 in the group i was riding (A). Did a PB of 1.47.1 then constant 1.48's and meet some great guys in the pit i was sharing. Am sure everyone there today must have enjoed themselves!!
Does it get any better!?
it could have been alot worse!
my axle nut came off going through T3 making for an 'interesting' 2nd session. had fun with veitch at the end of the day.
congrats on the pb

Great weather great people and like was already said very little or no stoppages at all . I was going round in B1 and not a session was red flagged .
Great battle was had between Pymm and myself in the last session , was a blast . Shame about the few bent and scratched bikes ...... you know who you are , but at least everyone got away healthy . Now as per usual I sit awaiting the next outing , best of luck to everyone going round tomorrow , should be another cracker of a day .

Yes, that was confusing :P
Pymm was about to overtake me when he suddenly slowed down leaving squiggly lines... I was confused!!

That was you Pymm ?? .... :lmao:... sorry mate, had no idea, I was on T4, saw you come in to 4 with smoke off the tyre, just knew you wouldnt get far :dohsmiley: :lmao: ( never found that nut either, and glad it wasnt worse mate)

ahhh yeah! the smoke off the tyre was cause the axle was hanging 2 inches out the left side, so the wheel was angled left and was rubbing against the swingarm and chain protector.
very lucky that an 04R1's axle nut fits an 09R6! :mod_smilie_rockwoot

Nah , just Saturday for me . You may be confusing me with someone else . I did meet you though ( gun metal grey R6 ) , we were talking tyres at the back of the Rats garage , was a great day out .

Some hit out that is Devilish , many other Rats get to CSS yesterday or today , weather was good again yesterday , can't see what it is like yet for today , too dark outside . Get outta work in about 6 hours so might head out for a look .
