oulton track day final recoved from my best track day iv ever done oulton is much harder than i remember and i was all over the place first time out. iv final got a real good set up with my brakes and am now confident with them so my lap time fell in the afternoon and got 2.12min lap when i borrowed a lap timer for the final outting. i think theres 2.10 lap in the bike as i was braking early for a few corners and not turning in late enough for a few others. (phill going to tell me hes was doing under 2mins last week now) the weather was fantastic just hope it holds out till saturday thank you to andy and dom for there advice im real feeling confident hanging off the bike now and riding on the ball of my feet as well as pressing on the pegs going around corners |

* Yawn * I dont time myself but the best i was told i did was a 2.13........... U the MAN |
Glad it went well for you Dom:) Andy said it was good to meet up with you again. Just been comparing times from the CB500's (closest on the tracks to the 620's in times-ish) and last year at Oulton in July on a dry track, the best was running 2.05.3 Now, if you compare the top running CBs at Cadwell this year against Geoffys time on his 620sport (and Geoffy knows Cadwell v v well) the CB would be just ahead......... Just doing a 'Domski' with some research:) |
The CB's aren't doing 1.47's at Cadwell though :confused: BUT, I'll put money on the CB's doing 2.01's or better at Oulton this year. The 620's can get into the 1.58's I reckon. :ninja: |

WJB reckoned the top CB5s were doing 2.04s which would put us around the 2.02 mark. Sounds about right, but I'm bloody miles off that at the moment. |

I didnt say that Dom;) I was pulling their times off from Oulton last year, and then using another track where we raced with/ after them in same weather conditions for a timed difference overall.............sort of similar but not, if you follow my womans logic:D CB's have had better/same times as 620 DD bikes when both were at the same circuit I fink:) |
:mad: :mad: as usual I cant edit my post:mad: Just double checked, and it seems hairnets are about 3 - 4 secs quicker than 620's, and CB's about 3 secs slower (using Geoff as the 620 base time) Sorry for guffing up :( |

The top CB's were only doing 2.04's, which would be about 4-5 seconds off my 8-year-old CB pace (allowing 5 seconds for Hizzy's) and I was 2 seconds slower than Ellison!!!! ...BUT there is a super fast young Scot, who is making everyone look silly this year. He'll be down in the 2.01's, maybe even faster. In the rain last month at Oulton, he started 20 seconds behind the KTM grid, and finished 16 seconds behind Dave Heal who won - except Dave Heal didn't have to carve through the KTM grid either! He was doing 2.09's in the wet. ...and Ali, you're a fibber ;) :lol: |
i know it somewhat irrelevant to me anyway. but it doesnt matter what times you do so long as you beat all the others? |
All times are GMT +1. The time now is 01:23. |
