Luckily only in practice for Cadwell - otherwise I'd have as many points as Domski

...and....as for your "kack-handed starts"...my residing memory of Cadwell is the sight of your flanks going diagonally across my "bows"....at some speed....while I was just beginning to think...."now...clutch in, down for first, revs up...wait for the liiiiiight!!!!"

Heh. Standard race tactic - scare the bejesus out of everyone else so they give you a wide berth

I've done a season with KRC and can throw in some comments:

1. the quick guys will be on full sprint race pace for the duration

2. tiredness / concentration wandering will probably set in at about 20 min or so - this was when i started missing apexes etc. i gave myself a stiff talking to and was fine for the rest of the hour (60 min slots in KRC)

3. you'll feel 10 times more knackered the moment you step off the bike

4. i wouldn't want to run my 620sport without an oil cooler for this distance (but them i'm a bit phobic about oil temp at the moment)

biggest bummer is i won't be there - boo! hoo! But think of me slurping a beer by a pool somewhere, 'cos i'll be thinking of you

have fun and take care. see you all at donny.

that's what a few good reds, a ripe piece of Roquefort and a '**** off' glass of prot does for you.
