Any Way, Qualifying was great, because i hadnt ridden the bike since last october so was a bit rusty, qualifying 1:57, i was happy, as was fastest out of the team on 125.
the bike felt good, altho i had a problem with my gear changes, my foot was getting caught in the fairing. I watched the other riders go round following a few then passing (Taupo is a great circuit)
R1
The first race i got a crappy start, getting swamped in the first corner result pushed out wide, i had to focous and put a few laps in solid to regine composure, i did so passing luke, and sitting in behind kyle, i was impressed the speed from qualifying to race 1 he picked up, but i wasnt wanting to stay behind and figure, so quicly past him, the gear lever problem was coming back into play, missing countless gears, kyle passed me back and i was annoyed, so the strait to the final s's i through flying lossing him.
R2
I got a average start holding my line to the corner, i was infront of kyle and luke, and it stayed that way the whole race, i caught up to william juggins quickly going past him, i wasnt going to slow.
I saw murray n#59 infront and my sights were on him, i quickly caught up but by that time the race was over, i was a bit annoyed that from the start i wasnt there with them
But the race WAS GREAT!!! 1:49 fastest lap for me on the day.
The whole day overall was great, getting alot of support from the other riders throughtout the round. Thanks Alot
I was really happy dropping 8seconds of qualifying
Anyway, im writing this at work, boss has just showed up, so
SEE YA!
