Monty that might be the same piece of film that I saw a while ago. he was a Dutch guy who died on the next lap.:( [/quote

]Adam the guy you are on about was Jorund !

He did die on the ring after a bike/car had dumped some oil on the track

he lost the front end and hit the Armco!

he was probably the best rider the "Ring " HAD EVER SEEN!!!

BUT thats how easy it is to get it wrong on there

Treated with BIG RESPECT you wont get a better ride anywhere ;)

ps it Was not the next lap

That bike video was truly exhilarating! I'm even more scared of the 'Ring now!
One day ... one day.

Loz there's absolutely no reason to be scared !

i'm sure if you went on a Dsc trackday for the first time without the briefing off Monty/wjb!

you would be scared;)

i'ts no difference at the ring !

and thats what i'm there for!;)

More awed than scared, really - but still a little scared :D

Mind you, that BSB video of Cadwell freaked me out before TA 2.5, but now I love the track with a passion.

Like I say - one day! :roll:

Just viewed the Brendan vid and am very impressed....

I love the way ALL cars are humliated by the bikes but,

very worried by just how narrow the track seemed in places (bridges???).

Frank it's quite wide when you are on it!

but you do have to check ya mirrors on the straight bits some of the cars can come up on you a bit quick!

all in all no-one wants to deliberately crash with u !
it's all a game of respect

But when you wind the throttle back you do get a feeling of yeeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Bloody Awsome:lol:
