It's not ideal but that's racing...

I also went out in the same SV/F400 practice as I hadn't been to Oulton for 7 years and sinced my last visit they had added the Hizzys Chicane.

So went out in DD practice with nice warm tyres came hurtling into the first Chicane on my 583 to come across an almost stationary 620, had to use the front brake to avoid ramming into it and as usual when cranked over and adding front brake I was soon paying a visit to the medical centre. Still it wasn't the incident that caused the early Red flag.

At least this time when Saturday quallifying comes around its only a couple of years since I was there
