Johnny Burkhart VIC series

[be not afraid]

hey everyone.
thought id make my first race report on here. VIc club winter series 08.
my first road race series so was a steep learning curve.
started the series thinking my 600 was a motorcross bike and hangn off the wrong side of the thing! with some awesome advice from craig and choppa and various other top riders, i slowly started developing a better riding technique and have got faster through out the series.
won a few races but got thrown off a couple of times! but have definately learnt faster through adversity!!!! have had some awesome battles with sam, choppa, nick, adam, jamie over the series and congrats to choppa for the overall win! motorcrossers aye:rockon:

i ended up winning round one and six for supersport and 2nd overall for the series.
raced the superbike class also on the 600 just to get more track time and experience and ended up 2nd in the series also.

So overall i had an awesome time and learnt alot! thanks heaps to those who helped throughout and big ups to VIC club on well run events!

am hoping to do nationals and keep riding, between nappies and this bloody expensive sport, (especially as a privateer) hopefully i can keep it up!!

thanks heaps to rob taylor and dennis, craig, choppa, jr, bj and everyone who helped

cheers

Hey Johnny,
Watched you a few times over the series "taking a learn on things" , impressive stuff in the wet with you not afraid to find out where the "edge" was as soon a possible. Hope you are having fun and making more sense of it on every visit to the black stuff.

Maaate. I can only echo what Glen said, outstanding results and great skill development. You dirty boys and some of the other first timers have been real impressive this year. It's added some great fresh energy and competition into the series.:clap:

Well done fella. Awesome riding in the glimpses I’ve had from way behind. Hope the Nationals turns out well for you :niceone:

[Tony.OK]

Too fast, too young, too good.............outstanding results Johnny. You dirt trackers are somethin else, hope to catch ya ( literally) next time:Punk:

[Deano]

Great first season alright. As with Choppa I will be watching your progress at the Nats closely - go hard mate.

[Frenchy]

Well done mate the results speak for them self! maybe i should go ride a dirt bike for a year!

[Ivan]

Good stuff man,
Been watching you aye got the Rappa riders not many of us around

[slowpoke]

Maaaaate, what can I say.....?

I had the pleasure of pitting next you and your beautiful bulging missus at Rd 1 on my poor ol' R1 then missed everything until you were snuggling with bub on the bottle at Rd 6 and I was next to you guys on a CBR1000RR....how times change.

Fortunately they've changed much the better for you, not just as a proud dad, but also from a rough and ready racer who was blindingly fast but not quite sure why, to someone who is ready to make his mark on the National stage. Good onya mate, but for a bit more horsepower you would have had Sam's measure at Rd 6 too, so be confident that you can match and beat the best the country has to offer.
