with 18 laps there's room for tactics! I've been thinking that with 18 laps we'll have time to employ some crafty race tactics. So I've invested a great deal of time thinking up different scenarios and race plans. Now I know it's probably not a great idea to share my race tactics with my competitors but this is about the best I've come up with. First, Make sure I don't run out of petrol! Secondly, The most important thing, and this is the clever bit, Stick my fingers up each time I lap Mr Appleby! and thats about it really, Matt |
You forgot one... Check your tyre pressures! |
my main tatic has been to improve my counting, In the past I found counting up to 12 known to many as a Dozen but not a Bakers dozen which I understand is more than 12 got me through most situations, but over the winter I have attended special classes and now have the ability to count up to 20 just to make sure i'm in a good position to deal with 18 laps :) Now to make use of this new found ability I need to make sure I don't get laped by pulling my finger out as soon as the Red lights go off :p |

What d'yah mean? tyre pressures? |
I know the bike can do 18 laps thats not the problem, not sure about the rider though, so my tactics are to avoid getting lapped by any other class B bike, other than that its game on :) |

Does that involve use of toes as well? Isn't that a bit dangerous?? :lol: :lol: |
jolley this is a big IF,,,, but IF you consistantly lap at the lap record and IF I consistantly lap at the lap record, I'll be right behind you after 18 laps! so it is possible that you could get lapped yourself! I'll definately stick my fingers up if that happens, All in good fun you understand! Matt |

I would have thought that would be a fairly good lap time in the WET, so whoevers doing the lapping must have some Big *******ks |

Remember to take you right hand off when you want to stick two up. :lol: and where do you think yer gonna stick em.................:confused: |

zipped up tight in leather?..... I'm not sure....? |
I think my main tactic will be to try not to crash on the first corner whilst overtaking everone! |
Tis going to be interesting to see how everyone does. Mark. :) |

UYes I went wrong twice like that last year Quote:
Yes, I think I did that twice last year :( Thanks for reminding me mate, that'll be the 3rd tactic |
MMm, I wonder if some of the guy's with smaller ali tanks will have enough fuel in them to last the race & still have the regulation 2 litres left in the tank at the end of a race ;-) Chris:burn: |

Nice little job for Bernie on Saturday then :) |
the best tactics,,, step 1, file a couple of numbers off of competitors bike when nobody is looking , step 2, report dodgy looking frame Number to officials 10 mins before race. |
arrr, tactics....follow craig until clearways lap 18 then stuff it up the inside. Simple :lol: |

Certainly not going to be my tactics |
