Track day llandow with pics(update)
 
Just got back from my first track day on a Ducati.
What a fantastic day we had we did have 5 crashers today but apart from one with a suspected broken hand, all were ok.

Never done llandow before either, we got there and took one look at the track and thought oh my god! It only has 2 left handers and only around 1 mile long.
But what a great laugh.:cool:

I am running a diablo corsa front and a standard rear, the front never moved all day but the rear was letting go and spinning up and I am told leaving nice dark lines :cool:
So I will be fitting a corsa rear next tme I did kind of get around the problem by lowering the rear tyre pressure and softening rear compresion damping, and then I finaly got my times down to 46 sec laps :cool:

Stoll on the next one

Oh yeah we lost our data base the other day so i have deleted those links but the above attachments do work.

Redruth 21-Sep-2005 00:21

Phawww. Thanks for that. Nice Termis. I've got that sticker under by 996 sign in virtually the same position on my road trim. Are you hooked? You should get track trim if you are. Be a shame to mess up those lovely shiny panels. :roll:

GsxrAge 21-Sep-2005 20:17

well I hope to do a few more next year, I have booked one in June and hope to do a dsc track day next year as well.:cool:

YES it did mate ! It nver fitted right from new so switched to my whizz leather sliders after that.

Yes i was enjoying it, I was getting bored of owning the Ducati but all that changed after a few laps. I will now be looking around for a 998 next year :cool::cool:
