VMCC winter series round 1

[HDTboy]

It was wet-ish, some people crashed.
I had a lot of big slides but managed to stay on top of my bike in the only F2 race they ran.
Qualified 11th in F1 and F2, Jill qualified ahead of me.
Finished 5th in F2, after running in 3rd for a few laps (6 lap race)

Oh, and I beat Two Smoker :bleh:

[HDTboy]

Oh, and I ran very wide at the back left hand sweeper trying to go around the outside of VTEC with the rear going faster than the front

[Possum41]

i thought it was ok conditions to race in. I'm racing a Hyosung GT650R and qualified 12th in F2 and 3rd in F3. In the only race of F2 i managed a 3rd place finish, sure lap times were down by 8 seconds or so but i didn't have any problems.
In the start of the F3 race i got swamped off the start but managed to come out of turn 1 in 4th and by turn 3 i was 3rd looking at over taking 2nd by turn 6 but then the bloody red flags came out so never got to find out how far i could have gone.
Although i was quite pissed off about the meeting being cancelled, heads up to the race officials. I know it would have been a very difficult choice to make but at the end of the day safety must come first and there were shit loads of crashes.
All in all i'm currently sitting in 3rd place for F2 on my HYOSUNG!!!!!!! Bet that'll never happen again but i'l take it while it lasts hahaha.:rockon:

that oil spill on the 6th corner was very slippery

[moT]

well from starting at back of grid in clubmanB (because i missed quallifying):pinch: i got 12 place in clubmanA in the second lap so im kinda happy with that

[HDTboy]

You did good Possum, I should've beaten you, but was too chicken when the track started drying out.

You'll probably get me back at Manfield anyway!!. i need to get my gearbox fixed i have no second gear, i was cornering in third so that probably helped me get drive out of the turns without spinning the rear wheel.

[cowpoos]

[HDTboy]

Take the nut monkey to your own thread.
Shit yeah Nicki, bring on Manfeild, just look out for turn 1, and the first left hander.

[Cleve]

Phenomenal first race Gav. Hope you can keep the points...

[HDTboy]

Thanks Cleve, was good to see you there. Thanks for your help in the pits.
I bloody hope I keep those points too

[Cleve]

No worries. I enjoy seeing you all and while I am temporarily out of racing I still want to go and help out a little if and when I can. (latest idea is an Aprilia RS 250 for F3 - I think I want to relive my old 250 proddie racing days...)

[HDTboy]

What about a Honda RS250 for F2?

[Cleve]

What about a Honda RS250 for F2?

Hmmmm with full factory support and pit crew? Sure!

[Sketchy_Racer]

Arrrghh!!

Why do you think you need factory backing for a 250!!

I run the 125 myself an im a 17yo apprentice!! its really not that expensive or hard!!!!

Blow a NSR or Aprillia up ( it will happen) and it'll cost you 5 times as much!!

[Cleve]

Arrrghh!! Why do you think you need factory backing for a 250!!

Cause I am a 41 (nearly 42) year old up and coming STAR of the future... why else?

[Sketchy_Racer]

Ohhh.

Please forgive me.

haha :niceone:

[HDTboy]

But Cleve, did you beat Two Smoker?

[Matt Bleck]
