Only KBer I could instantly recognize on the track lol. Pink does have advantages I guess.

Have a few better ones but they exceed 1mb and I can't get it smaller.

I was wondering who had the Flying Nipple.

Spill it.....

**FROSTY:Me** · 18th February 2007, 20:31

in a nutshell-
There was a major incident on the pit straight and yellow flag was waved on that point -Yellow being yellow I slowed on THAT corner and carried on at pace elsewhere
The red flag/chequred flag was positioned in a place I diddn;t see--Funnnilly enough aproaching the fastest left hand corner on the track at full noise you dont tend to look up 3.0m and across to your right.
No argument that the red flag was waved -I diddnt see em resulting in me doing 2 laps in practice I shouldn;t have -I apologised profusely as i was to be asked to leave the meeting for breaching the red flag rules --But complaints from 50% of the feild suggested I was right in that situation and the flag position was changed to a more suitable position

What happened to Kawa Kid ??? I think that may have had something to do with the flag situation, anyway some of my pics of the pink SV

And after your explanation to the bosses it was clearly a mistake.

But man.. at the time there were some new words emitted that I have not heard before!

I bet there were -I would have too in their shoes
I got an apology later -mind you I still cannot believe that idiot that walked onto the track in front of a race bike at full noise
