The 160/60 rear on my TRX is worn right the the edge but the front has nearly 1cm of chicken strip - I think I need to fit a 170 rear tyre or maybe get a YZF750 rear rim and run 180 rears.

It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

I had a great time - my first time out at Hampton Downs. Great track, good organisation and great to see a few old friends and meet some new ones. But crikey does that track rip up your tyres! But only on the right hand side. I think they should run 1/2 the day back the other way just so you can get even wear on the left hand side of your tyres!!

The message on the Website says the photos from the 20th will be ready on the 26th. Patience kiddies...

I must save up for one of them posh SLR's. My $170 camera just doesn't cut the mustard.

An DSLR is on my wish list too! I get by from time to time by borrowing my friends setup which is about $5-6k worth of kit. Not a bad setup for an amateur!
