Got to lose the pull-ups first...

[dpex]

Having now come down off the high from Friday, and read all the advice offered in my 'other' thread, I now understand I have to knuckle down and get the first bit right before venturing into 'any' competitive environment.

So buckle down I shall. I figure about ten track-days, in various environments should see the pull-ups replaced with real pants, and will provide me with a far better understanding of my ability, or lack of, then I can go from there.

But Jesus, when this shit gets in your blood it gets in, eh?

Thanks for all the advice, folks.

And as much as it makes me nearly choke to have to admit it, you're right, Katman. There's no such thing as casual racing.

And having conceded the point, I shall now go off and hang myself till it jolly well hurts.:--((((

Just go racing! If the meeting has a clubmen class then you will be fine, do you know what sorta times you were doing at taupo?

Theres a test day at puke sat 15th, get out have a practice! make sure you have decent race tyres at the correct pressure thats the biggest thing

Nar. Gonna do this by the numbers. Doing the ART day on the 16th will be a good start.

I've realised there's just too much I don't know about passing and being passed. So I figure I need to learn that bit next.

But thanks for the thought.

Nahh mate--at his stage he needs track time
Much as a race meet would be fun the 20 odd minutes on the track just aint good bang for buck for him
