    Was it you that came off on the first sweeper, then had #62 KR150 run off the track behind you and run straight into your bike? Talk about target fixation!
    If that was you, I got a good vid of it happening
    Yep, thats me

    Max told me about that vid, said you showed him after the race of his accident. I'll have to see it sometime

    have to say ya was quick you staight line speed was huge, and of course the corners too.
    but i have to say all that speed was put to shame!! not by crashin but if its on the vid look at which side you were trying to pick the bike up on!!!

    you cant pick up a bike by pulling it up from standing over it, get on side of it then pick it up by lifting it from the bottom. i could see you for 2 laps trying.

    hat off though, i placed 5th 4th and 3rd on the black and silver rg. i think that my wieght is holin me back a bit i 87kg, got to be the heaviest there.
    so i ended up well off for the meetin. wish i could say was through passing but it was beacuse of people crashing. sometimes it better to be consistant.

    Yeah, problem was when I tryed to do that in the first place, the front wheel slid on the grass, so the idea of me pulling it up was cause i could put my foot in front of the wheel to stop it sliding and my foot would've hopefully acted like a lever

    but, the bike was a fat bitch :-p

    I was thinking, If all us Streetstock racers entered F3 as well, we could double our track time.
    Have our own little race within F3!
    It's only $10 extra to enter F3 as well as Streetstock.

    I'm all for that idea

    Doubt I'm gonna get this bike running for round 2, maybe even 3. Its all easily repairable, just will cost a fair bit

    Ah well, next year I might get on the podium

    Then you could put on more go fast bits too.... Maybe a stock engine for one class and a race engine for the other. Should only take 20 mins to swap over

    Dad just got some 'liquid metal' from supercheap. This was one of the things my Dads friend reccommended. Hopefully it should fix up the crankcase

    I used that to fix a rust hole in my fuel tank. Worked a treat!

    Well thats good to hear. Didn't bother using it this afternoon, try it tomorrow

    Also, can anyone give me any info on how to make your own fibreglass fairing? It'ld be cheaper, plus could make a nicer lookin one

    Newbies playing with fibreglass IS NOT FUN!

    Plus you will need to make a mould and that can be a bitch ass in itself but go for gold if your keen!

    Can't you make a wire frame then fibreglass onto that?

    I'm gonna learn this at school anyway, but I wanted to see if I could do anything before Round 2

    At the moment, I'll be able to race, only I won't have a front fairing and no front brakes
