iv been at brands hatch today

big thank you to CK and AK

who let me have a ride on 36 rocket ship today
raced with the SOT and SV

real enjoyed myself apart from. wait for it

yes i craher clegg crashed it but guess what it wasnt my falt. Had a big SOT bike deside he wanted the bit of track i was on the incedent was seen by all the marshals but non of them would tell me his race number. at the time i could of riped his head off but have to put it down to 'thats racing'

my lap time on the 620 were 59.01sec i think i could of found another 1 or 2 seconds but finding it very hard to ride the bike on tims settings from cadwell that made the bike move about a lot but it did make the bike feel real fast so was happy to stick at it.

any way Alan got the bike looking like it had never been down the road and i went out for race one and then came back in and stright out for race two. iv never done two races back to back and when i got back to the pits i was dead.

in the afternoon the races were going so well that new era gave us extra laps

just went out with the 400 in the afternoon and made the best start iv ever made and jumped loads of riders at the start just to go backwards as there all had faster bikes.

big thank you to knight road racing

Well done Dom

That's a handy lap time first time on a 620 at Brands. You don't get much time in a race to practice stuff do you.

Glad you're OK after your spill.

Well done fella nice day to finish your year off.

I nearly got a chance on that bike at brands.

Some idiot had left his leathers at home though and I was there as a pit bitch really , so I missed me chance.

Dom,

you can try to emulate me all you like, but I'll always be the one that deflowered the Tango!

Well done mate, glad you had fun.

Nice work Dom

Shame to hear you got escorted to a wider viewing position on the track, as it were

Still, for your first time on a 620 59's are pretty damn good! Well done.

I think the lap times would have been better in the 1st SV race, but for the fact that poor Dominic had to swoop off the track & go back through the holding area for the next race
He must have been shattered - 22 complete laps - 20 at race pace with no break.

Well done Mr Clegg
