Mood: R U thinking what I'm thinking?......Oh dear!
From a spectators point of view The organisers at croft seemed to have the job well sorted. Bike only park, helpful staff, etc.

I couldn't believe how big the grids were on Sunday, most were full, 40 Bikes?? Some classes had heats for a final and the F600 class had a reserve list. A few of the races were shortened to keep to time. Later races on the sunday were all 10 lappers. Despite the rain later in the day there was plenty of on track battling.

Just before the 750/twins race, 20 plus bikes? with about a dozen 125/250 smoke machines set off 15 seconds behind,there was a problem with the track and in an instant the track was being powerwashed and swept!!

Stayed on in the rain to see Felix race and it was worth it. In the last few last he was flying, maybe taking 15 seconds out of the Novice class leader to pass him on the last lap along with a couple of others. The commentator seemed impressed as well!!

Well done Felix, hope ya Gixer riding Buddies can sit down after their kicking on Sunday!!

Respec' to all club racers.

Is October the month for the DSC Donnington showdown??!!
