No,did not win, not even close. We were in the mx3 open which was the fatest class their so didn't expect to win, but I was amazed at how quick the lead guys were. The top guy was pulling 180km/h from what I have heard.

In the end I just tried to keep as close to Warewolf as i could (which wasn't that close), but he had issues so I finished in front once and would have in the feature race too but one side of my tank ran dry

The best thing about it was seeing how late i could brake and how fast I could get round the corners without it going too pearshaped. A couple of times the backing into the corners would turn into a seamless drift out of the corner and that just felt so cool. It may not have looked as cool but who cares. It was also good to have some run off so if things did get fcuked up you didn't end up in a ditch or worse.

can I borrow your 950 next year Joe? if you still got it. I will treat it as if it was my own.
