What an awesome day.
Could have been a smidgen betterer, that would have included another trek around the track.

Other wise, the bucket was ok, I felt that my or the bike was off the pace a bit, a poor start in the first race, a little better in the second, was holding off LilM for while, till the red thing slipped on by, GOOD ON YA, but bugger!!!

The Post Classic on the other hand, I felt best on, had a good time,and feel like I am doing better on it, getting it more right with rev's and right gear mix. And the bonus is that it makes my body feel less "Lead Weight" like than on the bucket.

Oh well, in another month'ish I will do it all again, see ya there.

Yeah it was a good day. Don't forget the day was shortened due to a few crashes requiring ambo's and cleanup. I heard a rumour that they had to call it earlier than expected as the ambulance was off site.

My bucket ran like a festering pile of poo with the GN250 carb on. It had awesome mid range and litterally nothing at either end- serves me right, I didn't do any testing. Apparently its a very easy fix.

Had fun on the Monster, but was not exactly where I'd like to be. Did ok considering how chronic my nerves were - this was my first meeting since a pretty decent crash a bit over 3 months ago

Wot about the other red show pony that got past ya?? Huh?

Awesome day and fun, even if I did run out brakes on lap 1 of the second race. The hairpin with no front brake was interesting!

Pottered around near the back (wot's new) for a valuable point. Cheers.

Yes that was the first of the bad experiences, I had already files that to the things to forget section of my memory. Was still processing my memory while writting the post... Now all is gone...

"Here come the men in black" just in time to clear my memory...

**phoenixgtr** · 8th June 2009, 08:41

Cheers, nice to meet you too. I'm starting to put a few names and faces together. Thats half the fun of the day, meeting people and having a yak.

I had an awsome day, have no idea where I actually got in the races.
But TP went the best it has ever gone for me, only came close to binning it once. Another race would have been good. As TP is a 1980 bike is there any reason why I couldn't go off the back of the post classic's with it?
Just a thought, for a bit more track time next time.
