Sounds like you were going pretty well. I'm not sure, but does your off and Psychlists off indicate that you DD guys are now real racers and putting some very hard moves on people?



I can tell you Jools although it was only my first go I saw things out there I'd never tell me mum about. and the 583s were at it from the off to. They all look like racers to me mate.

I was just thinking that they might have been a bit less confident as racers last year, in their first season, and been a bit more polite about overtakes.

Now at least half of each class have got a full season behind them, they're turning into fairing bashing, lever smashing, elbow clashing axe murderers

Sorry Jools, I feel suitably chastised now

I was saying this to Grahame inthe van on the way back - I think the racing is harder and the passes harder. Certainly no-one hit me whilst passing at all last year and I didn't hit anyone, that I can think of anyway. I think it's good and we'll all be better for it.

I think that my crash was a 'racing incident'. Just one of those things, I didn't see psychlist's so I can't comment but it sounds similar. Sounds like a good start to the season to me, except for me scoring no points obviously!

You say that in jest, but actually that's a very good idea.

I'll ring him
