Hi Darrin, you will be ok, no problems. Buy the end of the weekend you will be looking forward to the next round, if not( i will race thatmachine of yours ..eh,eh eh.) Come and see me for a chat i'am raceing my green ZXR 400 bike 90.
Good luck with the weather!!! Good onya & give it heaps !! I still got a month to wait till my first outing in clubmans...![]()
The Heart is the drum keeping time for everyone....
When you have had 2 great days of racing I will be waiting for you to visit me with more than a truck load of Bourbon ok?. Dont remember seeing too much sun at Carterton so I dont think that was the reason for you entering round 5. We all have to start somewhere so why not this weekend. Think positive and just relax and you will be fine, just hold your line and ride your own race ok?.![]()
Well Round 5 at Mansfield has been and gone, the races are over the times have been logged and the ribbons have been given out.
I had a great time and again was completely blown away by the generosity and comradarie of all riders no matter what class they were in.
I came along on Friday practice with a small amount of gear no staging area and not knowing anyone, by Saturday morning i was given a possy in garage 2 had been offered a set of wets of i needed them and meet a whole bunch of people.
Just want to say thanks to Gah Chan for showing me the ropes and Phil for letting me slide into Garage 2, Luke Jamieson for successfully predicting my best result in Clubmans A + B combined even tho he didnt know me from a bar of soap.
Jamie R who offered me tyres in case i needed them, BJ Cawthorn for showing me the lines, Vicki S, Sue and Rustys and loads more for their words of encouragement and advice.
Special thanks to Glen for squeezing my line on the straight down to Higgins and giving me a crash course in high speed lawn racing for about 200m @ 180 clicks.
And to....i think it was Drew for showing my three children whats it like to be engulfed in burnout smoke on the side of the street in Palmy on a Saturday night, my son thought he was "pretty cool"
Cant wait till next time which will prolly be next year.

Now you've lost your virginity, you're not going to be all slutty and open your legs for another in Round 6?
See Darrin, I kept telling you that you would be on the podium and you were. Congratulation on such a fantastic result in your very 1st race meet with the Vic Club. I had such a big smile on my face when i heard your name being called over the PA at prize giving after yesterdays racing. Look forward to receiving your entry to round 6 and seeing that smile grow bigger on that face of yours. Well Done.![]()
"FANTASTIC" results Darrin, ( think you are a bit of a dark horse eh! ). You certainly were punting that R6 along, great ride, on great a great machine well done. Can see you stepping up pretty quickly into F2.
See you out on the highways, if not will see you up at round 6.![]()
Good to see you really enjoyed your first race meet and congrats on winning the ribbon !
It was great to see you gain confidence during the weekend and the big smile after your first race. Hope to catch you at the next and final VMCC round.

Hey man you have to come to round 6, if you don't I might get that first place ribbon and then I will be unbearable to live with !!
My kids are already sick of me re-living my second place putting on my leathers and straddling the couch making Brrrmmm... noises.
Racing is bloody good fun though isn't it![]()
