100% agree with this..hence why i think snetterton will be the hardest race for Myself and Ali....Rattler Tony Nick etc who are quick riders and have picked up the pace will certainly be in with a shout of top 7..Ali mentioned that a certain 620ie came past him on the long straight like it was an R6..LOL......

but as they say " bring it ".................

the 620's definitely have the legs on the straights but this will only make a difference if there are two riders of similar ability battling it out. ali overtook me going onto the revitt straight, i overtook him back again about 3/4 of the way along then he went past me on the brakes into the esses and buggered off! purley because he's a quicker rider than me. depending where i passed him i could have held him up for a bend but no more than that.

well i think the mix of rider ability advantage and machine advantage has made the racing very competative...Ali paul rattler Nick Tony and Myself are all pretty closely matched and any1 of us could beat the other..time will tell if the bike really does play an advantage as the skill sets become even more closely matched..currently its good racing and competative.

still maintain top 12 as my goal
