I didnt really know what to expect this round. some of you may have heard of my 'lil run in' with the quad bike couple weeks before. :buggerd: kinda spat me off and ran over my leg so ya could say i wasnt feeling 100% :whistle: i was told by a few, if not many, that i shouldnt race...but i thought, what the hell!! haha
so it twas another awesome day!! I had been told many a times it was gonna rain blah blah blah, i didnt wanna hear it!! (mostly cos i couldnt afford any wets) but what a pearla!!
Well what a mad morning, everyone rushing round getting last minute things done..thanks to our good mates Team Piston Broke we had a pit ready and waiting hehe (god we're lazy)
Wasnt feeling to great, but was looking forward to being on the long track again. was awesome fun last time. so went out in qualifying... that felt like it came and went pretty quickly! got back to the pits and almost fell over getting off my bike..ankle/foot/knee were all giving me greaf. wasnt too happy with my time..2:19xx, but got 6th on the grid which is my best so far, so with the bad does come good haha
Race One
got a good start, was first to the corner but let myself be bullied into the corner so couple got past. had a good lil play with one for a couple of laps. still tring to get a feel for the track again, and busy tring ways to ride without putting too much pressure on my right foot, screws everything up, bike felt all unbalanced blah blah anyway a 4th for that one. im happy. i finished it, stayed up, had fun.
Race Two
better start, didnt let them past me this time, think i was first to the corner, second coming out. i had decided this time that i couldnt try and keep pressure off my foot, if i was going out i just had to hack it. so i hardened up after the first lap and picked up the pace. was a great race, i really enjoy the longer ones. allows you to really get into a flow. so again another 4th but better lap times. 2:15xx so four seconds off my qualifying. knew i could have done better, but all things considered i was just stoked that i could actually get out there!!
all in all another brilliant day. just gotta say a BIG thank you to everyone that helped out!! too many to name, but without you all itd be a tough road.
Till next time!!
Adios
