Did the one on Thursday the 3rd at Taupo

Awesome format, highly recommend these to anyone! But they are especially useful for racers!

So much better than regular track days those who want to get out and test different things. You can come in after a couple of laps, make a change, then head out again without worrying that you're wasting valuable track time and that you won't have enough (still feel shattered 2 days later!).

Managed to collect a fair bit of knowledge about my riding, my tyres and my bike, and even found that I was 1.2 seconds quicker around Taupo with a 180 over a 190 only 5 laps after the change!

I'm not on the payroll of Redline, just think that it's an ideal scene for racers and that we should support them if they are to continue. Next one is 17th December, I believe.

I'd also like say that the Redline's open trackday format is great for testing and trying new things!

I'll be back for sure!

For those of you thinking about it theres one on the 17th of December, these are no nonsense track/test days, if you want to get out there are see where your stamina is or test your machine without having to wait 30mins to an hour between sessions then rockup.

BTW u were rocking out there Phil go Yamaha!
