Id never be that sharp............

Id love to compete on the vfr 400 that is fun, though she'd kill me if i binned it..........

I'm with you to a point Dickie.

Class - A : bigger investment = higher expecations = competition

Class - B : Some new novices and some old hands = competition

I for one will NOT be letting anyone have their own way in Class B.

update:

so bike is all finished. suspension and engine done, new numbers on, been chucked on the dyno so at least i have an idea what i have and where it is.

first outing at brands this sunday, may even be dry.

just remains for me to see if i can actually go quicker than last year.

will be happy to just have a little 'loosening up' session sunday, but will have an idea after that.

the season starts now.

nice realistic targets... there's nothing worse than being miles away from your expectations.

Push yourself a bit more though fella.... make the goal a top 10 finish.... give yourself something to stuff someone that little bit harder into turn 1 for.

I have to admit, much as we've had issues, you seem to have a great desire to do well and are trying as hard as you possibly can...

i respect that a lot.

i wouldn't be looking to get within 2 seconds of your best lap if i were you... the cold really does make a HUGE difference.

cheers steve,

yeah i'll see how i feel on sunday and what the weather is like, be nice to get close to my race lap times though.

You owe me a keyboard tiger!!

And maybe a screen, although I think I might be able to get all the coffee out of it!!
