Qualifying
i was feeling really good and was suprised by the stopping power from the new vesrah brake pads which i fitted 2 weeks ago. i got a best lap of 1.35.435 which was good enough for 7th ss150. I had David to my right and Russell to my left both of who i wanted to beat.
Race 1
I got a great launch but dropped it down to many gears into turn 1 which locked up the back wheel which made me lose a couple of positions. i started getting positions back and then focussed on getting Russell and Alex. i got passed them and relaxed for the rest of the race. i finished in 5th place with ryan in front of me and russell behind me. i got a new PB of 1.32.701.
Race 2
got a great start only for the race to be red flagged as i went into splash. I got another good startand was happy to be towards the front of the pack into turn 1. my aim was to stick with Malcom but that didn't last long as i had Tyler and Ryan to battle. on lap 6 i got a false nuetrel at the hairpin and ran wide forcing tyler of the track and he crashed (sorry about that Tyler). i then had to catch back up to ryan which i did and beat him with a gap of 0.985. i got a best lap of 1.33.268.
A big thank you to Russell for letting me take his 400 out during the lunch break and get some laps on a bike that is 'big' for me, it was awesome to be out there on a bike that actually has some power unlike the 150. I will definatley be trying my hardest to be racing a 400 next season.
