    Ya gotta love club racing!

    I was trying to follow a lil' bit of the Vic Club Winter Series at work today, via the live timing. It wasn't entirely successful with other shit going on but I got a bit of a feel for a few races.

    I had to laugh at the top 5 one of the Clubman's races:
    1. TL1000S
    2. KTM Superduke 990
    3. Aprilia RSV1000
    4. Yamaha R450
    5. Triumph Daytona

    Not exactly the usual suspects eh? One of those classic "it's not what ya got it's how ya use it" moments. Well done to all concerned.

    That top five would have all sounded great going full noise too...

    Ah, the beauty of clubmans.
    My Speed Triple made top 5 in a few of the Summer Series races. Even managed a first.
    That will be the end of those good results though. Going to have a crack at f1
    There is no dark side of the moon, really, as a matter of fact. Its all dark...

    Yes you are right.... Not sure if Freedom Suzuki will be too keen on ordering in some 12 inch slicks for their Quad.....
    I reckon it is good for a Sub 2 minute lap though.
