Used to be involved with Phase One Endurance Team years ago and was reminiscing;

Phase One are not contesting the series this season but several of their team members have joined the Honda TT legends team of Steve Plater, John McGuinness and Keith Amour. http://www.hondaproracing.com/world-endurance/news/?race_event_report=1016

Thinking back to the Hampton Downs round, how cool would it be to be able to change wheels this quickly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XUjD9jceIg&playnext=1&list=PL1112700A4D53C87A

Phase one and Russel Benny did a fantastic job in the World Endurance series, were you working with the team as a mechanic or rider or what

I was part of the team looking after the 'qualifying' bike, specialising on chasis prep and testing in the ZXR days.
Lived just a few miles from the workshop, often had to take work home with me during the building phase and aften in the runnnig in phase (the long way home if you know what I mean) :innocent:

Pretty slick wheel change - takes me 15 -20 min and at least one skinned knuckle :weep:
