Driftn playing in the puddles

WHat a day.

Get on the road at around 5.30 in order to get to the track with eough time to change to wets if i had to which i did.
Went out for qualifying first time on wets and was shitting myself. Very unsure of the grip levels i wobbled my way around to get 22 on the grid I think didnt matter cause we could not see the numbers on the track but we got the general positions alright. Good work girls.

Race one well the worst start i have ever had and i think i was last in to turn one with drew on the outside and vicki up the inside "wicked".
Chase vicki for a couple of laps getting used to the feel of things and decide to turn it up a notch and go past her. Getting laped by alot of people then bloody Jay comes past me all crossed up and I watched him "fuck thats cool WWWOOOOO turn in luke". Manage to start feeling slightly more confident then some body decided to high side in the hair pin and i had to stop in order to not run him over. Vicki came past and yeah finished 22.

Race two. Well now that i have some of the fear of the rain out the way the lights go out. Better start than before managed to make up some spots off the line and in to turn one and bloody Drew round the outside again. Frist lap felt good then vicki up the inside round the sweeper and I start thinking f#@k this for a joke the the red flag comes out.
Gave drew a cuddle in the pitts coz his bike was broken then back out again. Restart was awesome got past a shit load of people in to turn one was great. I think something fliked off in my head and i just went mental had frenchy and dodgy matt in my sights but could not real them in then saw frenchy have a big slide coming out of higgins that looked cool.
Jay came past again all sideways into turn one(dont look dont look) then think right ill tag on to him and see how i go as it turns out i went round the long way of him through turn one and managed to make it stick for the rest of the race. Things got even better for me when i got my knee down in the hair pin. Finished 15 with a best time of 1.21

Well thats my blah blah.

Thanks to my sponsors. Firestone, Station sports cafe and bar, Maidstone Mufflers.

Also Big ups to Deano your awesome bro, My girl, Drew for the whined up and the Vic club for running such a wicked day.

Majorly tidy riding sonny.

You're sadly lacking in the crashing stakes though. Drew's kicking our arses but I'm chasin him hard.

**Matt Bleck** · 21st July 2008, 21:37

Great results out there dude, and on a mighty SRAD too!!

So you're the Mair that doesn't crash?

**Toast** · 21st July 2008, 22:30

Nice one fella. Good to see a modern classic hooligan bike holding it's own out there.

**driftn** · 22nd July 2008, 18:27

Thanks people for the kind words. If only I could get results like that in the dry I would be a very happy lad.

**Drew** · 22nd July 2008, 18:32

Well done indeed li'l bro. Keep it up, and if I can keep my bike up I'm sure we'll have more fun in the upcoming rounds.

**Frenchy** · 22nd July 2008, 19:38

Well done mate! and i'm glad some one got to see my big slide!! sure did make the arse puckker

**Deano** · 23rd July 2008, 15:09

That was awesome in Race 2 mate. You were kicking a lot of late model arse !!

Does a Mair have to crash lots before someone buys them a competitive race bike or what ?

Oh yeah - GO TEAM !!
