Working on the write up.... only got home at 2 O'clock this arvo, been in welly-town for a couple of days.

Qualified Third (beaten By a 250 and a south island Rider). But didnt complete full qualifying time available, trying to preserve tires etc.

First Race DNF, Fuelling issues.

Second Race 1st Place, Quite a long race so just Pressured, pushed and poked until the other guys crashed out

Third Race 3rd Place, No point crashing trying to beat the South Island riders who aren't competing for overall championship points. So just played the following Game

More to come

Its harder than it looks, especially getting a good launch and your time Rob looks impressive given that it was the road.

Yep its hard enough in a Car (old thunderparker here too ) and to get a bike into the 10's is a very good effort indeed!
