Well just to set one record straight. I've never had a lap timer working on a trackday before. I've only bought one recently and it didn't work at Brands, and the battery was flat at the Castle Combe trackday (although the beacon was on). All I wanted to know was how to make a beacon, coz I can't afford the £40 to buy one from Rollcentre. I think your initial post was not really on topic either. I can see how you think that people trying to go for lap times can be a pain, but I would think that they are mostly in fast groups. Anyone going in a fast group should know the score and in my opinion, they have no right to complain about people riding too fast, unless it's dangerous. I've seen plenty of slow people who are dangerous, and on the whole I think your argument is flawed. Not only that, you imply that I'm reckless on my DD bike. The fact that you do trackdays to enjoy them - what does that mean? I do trackdays to enjoy them too. I do racing to enjoy that as well. Just because I'm a ****load faster than you, doesn't mean I'm reckless or upsetting anyone. Nobody has ever complained about my riding on a trackday, even when I've been timed, I'm curteous and aware that there are people like yourself out there, and I ride accordingly. Basically, you're so far wrong on every aspect of your argument, and you ****ed me off! I'm a good guy to have on a trackday and I am in full control of my bike, which is more than can be said for a lot of people. FAR-Q |
