TBh I can see why. If my bike handled better I would have beaten that. On the lap that was stopped, I was ahead of my 1'50 dead. Reason I'm so sure is I was hitting gears earlier thru charlies 1 and was flat out sooner on park straight so certainly faster...alas chassis couldn't cope with extra speed thru bottom mountain hence it chucked me up then onto the grass just as the red flag came out

if I'd have had Phils, Kevs, alans or Hughs straight line speed I would have done it. And I dont think the new tyres are that much better than the old diablos...especially as my tyres were so worn by then

edited to add I'm not trying to sound flash, arrogant or ain't I great!! Just seemed to gel with Cadwell after all these years of trackdays!! Think I'll move there
