Yep they felt good in all conditions today but don't reckon they will last long on a hot dry track.
Perhaps, a test day and race weekend followed by another test day and that will be about it.

They have added another mile to the infield. Do a search in youtube for "Snetterton 300", or go on the circuit website. The Idea is they can run a slightly modded onld track (the 200), a new mini mile long track (100), or a super long 3 mile track combining the two (the 300). We are racing the 300. I'm sure there was a thread on here about it where Neil and I predicted lap times

They also get another 18 riders per group on for TD's and will run more car events... Lots more revenue!

It is a great circuit though...... Fueling issue resolved easily .
It was a dodgy plug/socket connection on the tank/pump feed (the one you separate when removing the tank).

What pert but with a little bit of bounce and the odd jiggle in the countryside?

Tyres no good for Green Laning and off road stuff then
