Hottrax are doing Donington for £69 noisy day on 30th Oct.

Paul James 13-Oct-2006 08:54

You can often pick up these late season days last minute if you don't want to commit due to the weather looking iffy.

The No Limits is GP which isn't as good as the shorter circuit IMHO

Looks like Hottrax is the shorter, national circuit. Bargain at £69 !!!

Ray 13-Oct-2006 10:04

No limits are also at Donington on 6th November, £69 and 20th November £69,

maybe see ya there then Monty,

Ray.

How did today go ??

Ray 17-Oct-2006 09:01

Good weather and surprisingly warm, the sun even peeped through a few times.

About 15 or so Ducatis spread over three groups, including some very trick 999s and 996/8s

One 999r appeared to have a rear sprocket/ hub failure but couldn't tell if that was cause or effect.

Quite a few red flags due to red mists and maybe cold tyres. One by an R1 whose rider left the radiator cap off:eek:

Throughly enjoyed myself on the old CBR6, once I'd got the hang of being in the right ratio for each corner, it doesn't matter so much on the 998:lol: Just need to learn to hang off a bit now.

A mate lent me some tyre warmers in the afternoon, used to be sceptical about their use but it does make you feel more confident earlier in a session and does seem to stop the tyre "cold tearing" easy to use on the CBR6 with a centre stand:D

There was an orginal GT40 doing a few laps at lunch time to keep everyone entertained.

Not sure if there were any other DSCers there.

Ray.
