Worked for me
I suppose it all depends on what you like the feel of and how much stress you want on yourself or the bike over 18 laps. It also depends in you are chasing or in front. I was matching last years winning lap times, but revving a lot lower and with less gear changes. With the lower gearing you are changing up and down an extra gear between edwinas and the hairpin, which makes it a little less relaxing. However, the real issue for me is how high you are revving from the start/finish line right round to braking for Edwinas.... it sounds crazy to me, but if it works for you that is all that really counts.

Bradders, yes I am there on Friday. Following Ghost around all day. It is only fair he repays the favour from following me at Brands (although he may try sand-bagging, so I will have to be careful he doesn't slow me up too much )
