MotoTT trackday, friday 4th April

Hi Choppa, I'm not saying I am a more capable rider than you and I apologise for yelling at you, I was very pisssed off with such foolishness. I am simply saying that there was no need for that overtake manovoure you attempted. You yourself said that it was the last lap, when I was telling you off, then why the need to pass me? I was a good 15 ks faster than you and had the better line, then you went round the outside of me and jumped into my line mid apex, fully cranked over 'slower than me' being the punch line here? Did you realise that that could have taken us both out. Thank God I had the presence of mind, skill and vast amount of luck required to stop lowsiding or highsiding myself over you (my front stepped out 2ce as you heard, then I almost highsided). If me or my bike had been damaged I would have made you pay. Straight and simple nothing personal.

i swear that your back wheel was not on the ground, and it was more luck...
First stoppie with knee down that ive seen in a while.

Thats coz u is slow as bro.

I like being slow.

It means I get to follow Xile.

This was the last session. I was in the fast group at the time, and this was turn 1 we are talking about, so its a pretty sharp apex corner.

He would have been able to get past you if you where 15 k's faster not in that corner



Im not saying it wasn't a silly move but think its was more a case of you panicking than anything else (I can be wrong of course)

You should have seen Chris haldane brake for the hairpin at paeroa

Im a little confused; how can he be slower than you; yet out brake you and hit the apex before you... surely if hes gone round the outside then your undertaking get ya ass to the rear of the group then! And remember.... no winners without Binners


We caught traffic and some of the traffic didnt like it too much, mr red 750 gixxer.. he took exception to being passed and decided to ride like a squid... over cooking corners and making himself look loose. i laughed and Logan gave him an ear full.


meh meeeeeeh fooooooooooooOOOOOOOOkin Neeeeeow!

I hit the apex before him not the other way around. He had the outside line, if he had held it I would have let him pass me before the next right hander but instead he pulled into my line! .... a lot slower than me (as he overcooked the corner, and was on the gas a lot later) now do you understand or would you like me to draw it out for you?

You guys in the slow group amaze me, surely you heard the 5 minute warning advising you should put your pinnies away and get geared up to race..???!!!

The problem was he missed his braking point cause he was doin a wheelstand, also he was coming up to the corner on the far left of the track i was taking the normal race line. Wheelstands look cool and are fun, im not sure if every one will agree with me but during a track day with other bikes all around is prob not the best idea. Fair enough to get upset when you get a bit of a scare like that i didnt even realise it had happen till i got back to the pits i apologised to cool the situation anyways....

no winners without Binners?!??
