Next round is the long track, aim for 2:40 and under.
Nice going man.

Keep it up young fulla. It's murder riding on proddy tires in that kind of weather.

Good one Jeff, good to see you still got out there after the Higgins in'cident. Qualifiying 10th means squat all to, just as long as you are enjoying the raceing mate. See you at the Buckets !:rockon:
