Round three is done and dusted.
Big thumbs up to fish for his amazing abilities of the organizational type and still go out and win on bikes he hasn't raced before. And to Zensen who showed her true form;
Started the day with a walk around the track with a group of riders. Got some pointers for lines to follow.
Practice race; Started in fourth, finished in second. Went fast and don't remember a thing except for trying to keep to the lines we spoke about earlier.
First points race; Started fourth, finished second. Very slow start but got some really nice flow happening. Also got through some of the mental block of passing people on the inside.
Seond points race. Started second, finished first. started quicker but still was out dragged to the first corner by Mark and #30.
After I got over "what the f was that", "why the little s" then after a couple of laps it was "thats it I'm over him being in front" I managed to pass him and while I was still had a control on the red mist I got past Mark, who I defended off.
Race three started on Pole, finished second. Even though I found the end of the bike suspension abilities (including having the front tank slapping and the rear jumping out) I'm happy as I managed to keep Mark behind me.
Those results got me into second in grade B and 5th in KoK. And if Mark finishes reasonably placed for the final two rounds and even If I won every race (which I plan to do) He'll win the trophy. But we shall see.
