Nervous newbie!
 
I am a bit nervous, not of riding the bike for the first time, not for racing the first time, not even for riding at Snetterton for the first time. I am a bit nervous that I have missed something either on the bike or with paperwork etc. So if you see someone looking a bit bewildered stood by race number 3, be very grateful if you point or prod me in the right direction. But really looking forward to it.

Have you booked into a garage? I shared a garage with other DDers last year and just followed them like a lost puppy, they saw me right.

P.S. Nothing can prepare you for the first corner :lol:

Yes got pit / garage booked, that really was reason for posting the thread.....it's an apology in advance of being a being like a 12 year old; Why do you do this?.....What is that for?........What happens next? etc etc But also like an excited kid, I am looking forward to the racing bit, even that first corner!

Just remember its left, left, left, left, and left again :lol: :devil:

Right back to watching laps on youtube, just need a slow motion setting as Lodgy's laps are a bit quick

Will it be too late to book a garage space?

skidlids 05-Mar-2013 23:28

That does depend if there is any garage space left, you will need to contact Hottrax
