Nick - mate you need to know where you're going for your power to weight advantage to be any good!

Lin - don't worry, you'll be fine. If in doubt, keep the throttle pinned!

Lin - dont worry, our strategy is this:

1. Bike still in bits, lots of bits, so many bits, that I am thinking - "was it ever a bike?"
2. AK off to Cadwell racing for entire bank hol w/end, so no re-assembly being done till at least Tues night.
3. We are out on Weds night
4. Late finish from work Thurs night for AK (and we are leaving Fri!)
5. Mark (rider) not done CC since track modified with chicane, hates it anyway - says too bumpy, and why the hell did he ask to ride it!
6. Riders record is drop it, blow engine, off road it - you name it!
7. Arrive in time to fix bike so as track worthy
8. Get out just in time to get a place on the grid - anywhere will do, just he's gotta keep it upright & engine still running by end of timed session

anyone going over to the far corner on arrival to join me for a few bottles of anything?

C, rapidly thinking of taking up something more easy on the mind

They're not all filled - you could do it if you were keen.

Get in there my son!

Scotty, I think I recall Chris Bushell mentioning that they weren't opening up for 2006 entries till at least the end of Sept.

Are you doing the Mallory trackday?
